In 2003 readers around the world read in Always Enough about the amazing things God was doing in the poorest nation on earth.

Combining extraordinary narrative with insights and teaching principles, Expecting Miracles connects believers in developed countries with those in poverty and offers priceless lessons on how God's power transforms lives.

"This book is raw and contagious. Only one thing is lacking: a warning sign that says, 'Your life will change when you read this book!'"--James W. Goll and Michal Ann Goll, Encounters Network and Compassion Acts

"Heidi's stories of Jesus meeting the needs of the poor will make us jealous to be part of the answer for a dying, sick world. Read of miracles and those who are not afraid of getting involved with dirty hands and broken hearts."--Jackie Pullinger, director, St. Stephen's Society, Hong Kong

"Only eternity will reveal the impact of the laid-down lives of the Bakers. Not only have they started a revival that has changed the continent of Africa, but they are training hundreds of eager 'others' to do it as well. How, you ask? By enjoying and expecting miracles now!"--John Arnott, senior pastor, Toronto Airport Christian Fellowship

"Expecting Miracles is a must-read. There are many great mission stories from the past worth reading, but this one is taking place as we speak--right now! Read it, weep and become involved!"--Jack Taylor, Dimensions Ministries, Melbourne, Florida

"Heidi and Rolland Baker are writing a contemporary book of Acts. They walk with contagious passion for Jesus and equally contagious compassion for the hurt, lost and poor. This book will inspire many toward living a sacrificial, Christlike lifestyle."--Marc A. Dupont, Mantle of Praise Ministries, Inc.
