"Steve beautifully and thoughtfully explains what faith is and how it can work miracles in our daily lives. He also talks in-depth about the power of human imagination and how we can use it to make our dreams come true," the description reads. "As God inspires us to build and create a larger vision for our lives, Steve shows us that when we combine our inherent power with God's divine plan, we can each achieve anything. Written in an engaging storytelling format in Steve's warm, inviting voice, each chapter of this thoughtful book offers invaluable advice and anecdotes that illuminate the power of imagination and how to use our God-given visions to enrich our lives."

Harvey, who has struggled to overcome homelessness and several failed marriages before becoming a successful comedian, radio and television host, gets candid about the trials and tests that he had to overcome in his latest work. The inspiration for Harvey's book came from the host of "Family Feud" speaking to his studio audience about God last January after he thought cameras had stopped rolling.

While it was not aired on television, Harvey's team captured a special moment where the host encouraged his audience by letting them know that God wanted them to live their lives more abundantly.

All they had to do was take a leap of faith by jumping.

"Your Bible says your gift will make room for you. Your gift, not your education," Harvey told the studio audience in a video that went viral with over 50 million views. "But if you don't use your gift, that education will only take you so far. I know a lot of people that have degrees and don't even use them. It's your gift."

While Harvey admitted that the process in taking a leap of faith can be painful, he urged people to trust in God who has never left them.

"You cannot name one single thing God has not gotten you through. If He's not gotten you through it, He's getting you through it now," Harvey told his audience. "Your Bible says that He comes to give you life and life more abundantly. If I were you, I would jump because that's the only way to get to that abundant life. You've got to jump."
