    About this audiobook

    The #1 bestselling author of Bonhoeffer and the forthcoming Martin Luther explores miracles in an inspiring response to the "New Atheists" 

    Not since C. S. Lewis in 1947 has an author of Eric Metaxas's stature undertaken a major exploration of the phenomenon of miracles. In this groundbreaking work, Metaxas examines the compatibility between faith and science and provides well-documented anecdotal evidence of actual miracles. With compelling-sometimes electrifying-evidence that there is something real to be reckoned with, Metaxas offers a timely, civil, and thoughtful answer to recent books by Richard Dawkins, Christopher Hitchens, and Sam Harris. Already a New York Times bestseller, Miracles will be welcomed by both believers and skeptics-who will find their minds opening to the possibilities.

    • 4/5
      This is a relatively short book on the subject of miracles written from a Christian perspective. I expected it to be apologetic in nature but actually found it encouraging to Christians. It is MUCH shorter than Craig Keener's 2 volume by the same name.
      While not as "must read" as this authors book of Bonhoeffer or even his biography on William Wilberforce, I do recommend to all.
    • 3/5
      This book resonated for me not so much around the purported miracles described but for its persistent and hopeful message that God continues to break through the fabric of eternity to remind us of His presence in our lives. I was reminded that there is, in our very secular society, a vibrant group of learned, wise and seasoned believers spreading light and the message of the Good News to all who have ears to hear. Uplifting. Note on the Kindle edition: rather more typos than I would have expected to find. Also, you cannot toggle back from the notes to the text and the font size of the notes is unnecessarily small.
