Christianity stands or falls by miracles. It rests upon the greatest miracle of all—the Resurrection of Jesus. In this fascinating book Eric Metaxas looks at miracles as the foundation of faith. It is in two parts—the first looks at the questions which miracles raise—what they are, their relation to science, a broadly theoretical view.
The second (which I read first), are accounts of present-day miracles: a fascinating collection which (as miracles should do) stretch belief but in the end convince.
Metaxas writes beautifully, and though one may quarrel with things here and there, one finishes up with gratitude that someone has ventured to write such a book for the sceptical twenty-first century.
