Michael Brown talks about “The invasion” and his powerful new book “Lying Wonders, Strangest Things”. “These things are true, but they evade proof because they are not from this dimension”
If you thought life on earth had its bizarre moments, you’re about to see that conception taken to an extreme — one that sometimes speaks to the amazing nature of life but also one that often should alert and even alarm those who follow Jesus. Not all wonders are good ones!
In sixty-three short chapters — each a new “wonder” — this fast-paced, true-but-incredible book, more than two years in the making, is a journey through some of the strangest, most inexplicable — and in some cases most threatening — accounts as Catholic author Michael H. Brown documents extraordinary phenomena that have occurred around the world in recent years. (See table of contents below; they are not accounts that have not appeared on this website.)
“This is a very new kind of book for me,” Brown says. “It crosses a lot of lines I have never crossed before — into some of the most bizarre claims on the planet, but hopefully with a sober Christian eye. I guess you could say it’s somewhat daring. It will reach both spiritual and secular audiences, with what I hope are surprises and mysteries to ponder and often, to pray about in just about every chapter. I don’t think those who want to read something intriguing will be disappointed.”
While some ignore it, the current culture — television shows, movies, YouTube, and social media — has been awash with reports of hauntings and bizarre phenomena, from UFOs and “bigfoot” to psychics to ghosts to eerie places around the world where very strange “wonders” and “paranormalities” occur. And way beyond that.
In most cases –– as this “can’t-put-it-down” book shows — they are lyingwonders: deceptions by the evil one as his minions flood the spiritual landscape with false signs and manifestations (2 Thessalonians 2:9). The boy who repeatedly disappeared in front of his teacher, preachers, and his entire class. The woman who they claim is an alien “hybrid.” Modern-day Lazaruses. Living “dinosaurs.” The incredible prediction more than a century ago about Trump — that used his actual name (in a book called The Last President). In other cases, there are simply depictions of the strangest things that occur on this planet called earth — in God’s Creation.
This is a new kind of Christian book, written from a Catholic perspective and going quite a step beyond his special reports. Astonishing healings — beyond what even ardent Christians have heard. Miraculous materializations. Mysterious strangers (the author’s encounter with a most unusual doctor in New Orleans). And just plain curiosities in God’s Creation: truly amazing coincidences and unsolved puzzlements told in a style that will captivate the reader from the first to the last, allowing them to see the spiritual threads between what seem like disparate phenomena as Michael H. Brown, a former newsman known for his exposure of the Love Canal and the Mafia in New Jersey, now a full-time Catholic writer, pieces together the most incredible testimonies he could find.
The book is available exclusively here at Spirit Daily for now and also on Kindle.

Humans have always feared the unknown – be it lightning or even fire.
We’ve become familiar with them with knowledge
Yes there are other dimensions which in time we will also become familiar with as part of the natural universe.
So sad that somebody like you Michael Brown is spreading fear and terror with the usual religious threats of ‘don’t go there’ or else.
Of course you have the supreme truth based around one particular religion which has taken your fancy.
So sad that a man of intelligence, unable to crack the mysteries around us, is resorting to medieval nonsense which is no explanation – just religious dogma.
