NASHVILLE, Tenn. (June 18, 2014) - Seeing The Voice Of God: What God Is Telling You Through Dreams & Visions, the new book from author and speaker Laura Harris Smith, has made a big impact on several major sales charts in the past week, including Amazon, BarnesandNoble.com and Christianbook.com. On Amazon, the book hit No. 1 in the U.S. and the U.K. ahead of some of today's most popular authors, including Joel Osteen, T.D. Jakes and Joyce Meyer.

In the U.S., Seeing The Voice Of God currently claims the top position on two Amazon sales charts: Most Wished For In Christian Charismatic, as well as Christian Charismatic Books. In both categories, the book tops a roster that also includes books from Osteen, Jakes and Meyer.

In the U.K., Harris Smith's book recently hit No. 1 in Amazon's Christian Living category, which also included Jakes' latest book in the Top 5.

The book, which was released in January from Chosen, a division of Baker Publishing Group, has also made the Amazon Best Seller lists in Japan Germany, Austria, and Canada.

Seeing The Voice Of God has also landed in the top tier of BarnesandNoble.com and Christianbook.com's sales charts. At BarnesandNoble.com, Harris Smith's book has ranked No. 4 in the Religion and Inspiration category, with a repeat of Top 10 success at Christianbook.com, the third largest Christian book distributor behind Amazon and Barnes & Noble.

"All authors dream about their publisher contacting them with the news that they've made the Amazon Best Seller's List, and no matter who the author is, when the call comes, you're surprised," Harris Smith says. "To then find out that your book is No. 1 in several Amazon categories, and that your Kindle version is No. 2 alongside it, is indescribable. Discovering that it's also on the Amazon Best Seller's list in multiple countries is mind-blowing, as is seeing that it's the No. 1 Most Wished For Book in its category."

Harris Smith adds, "But to learn that out of all the 11-12 million books on Amazon--both secular and religious--that your new book ranks in the 500's, well, it's very humbling."

The flurry of chart-topping activity follows Harris Smith's recent media tour to the U.K., where she was interviewed on numerous media outlets and met with executives at Lion Hudson U.K., the U.K. distributor of Seeing The Voice Of God.

"Laura Harris Smith is authentic; she really does live the life and her insight into this much overlooked area is both insightful and inspirational," says Simon Cox, Senior Brand Manager, Lion Hudson, U.K. "The book will take your relationship with God to a higher level as you learn to tune your eyes and ears to His voice. Every Christian should read it."

In Seeing The Voice Of God, which was released in January, Harris Smith demystifies nighttime dreams and daytime visions, revealing the science behind the supernatural, giving believers a biblical foundation for making sense of what they see, and citing medical research on which vitamins and minerals improve dream recall. Chapters discuss how to discern if a dream is from God, the 10 most common types of dreams, how to understand if dreams are for the present or the future, and how to interpret dream symbols and imagery by using a comprehensive Dream Symbols Dictionary with more than 1,000 biblical definitions.
