Surviving A Miracle, penned by author Dr. Richard Greenberg, is the true story of his family’s involvement in a flash flood along the Nā Pali Coast of Kauaʻi. Rich’s family is made up of five members, including his wife Carrie, his three children (Zachary age 12, Samantha age 9, and Marla age 3), and himself. 

The Greenberg family, accompanied by a close family friend Steve, were hiking to see Hanakapi‘ai Falls along the north shore of Kauai. To reach the falls, the eight-mile round trip trail traverses a stream several times. The forecast called for clear sunny skies. However, upon reaching the falls, the Greenbergs found that the weather had suddenly begun to change. The wind began to blow fierce sheets of water at them. They quickly turned around and started the hike back. While traversing the first stream crossing on the way back down, Zach slipped on a rock and was swept away by the now-raging water. Rich, who was carrying Marla in a backpack carrier, attempted to grab Zach’s hand and they were also forced to brave the now fierce river. 

With the help of several brave strangers, Rich and Marla were able to get out of the flooded river alive. Miraculously, Zach was able to make it out of the water as well but was now stranded on a tiny ledge 40 feet across the powerful currents. As the storm continued to move downstream, the rain became a torrential downpour. As the river was rising, Zach was in an ever-increasingly treacherous situation. Read the book to find out what happened to Zach. 

This book serves as a testimony to the presence of God and the fact that He listens and answers prayers. The kindness of several strangers who came to the aid of this family in need touched my heart and motivated me to want to serve others more fully. This story is living proof that miracles truly do happen in our lives today. This book has strengthened my faith in God and has given me hope to be able to face the difficult challenges that life presents to us.  

The book was well paced with increasing moments of intensity and suspense. I could not put the book down until I finished reading the entire story. I had to know what happened to Zach. I highly recommend reading this story. This memoir will be especially enjoyable to those seeking to find a story that can increase their faith in overcoming life’s challenges.
