    A miracle?
    Me, an atheist, happens to read your (Eric Metaxas) editorial titled "Science Increasingly Makes a Case for God"... and the next day I met my new neighbor who is a pastor of a tiny church 2 miles from my house. Hardly missed a day of church since! Wonderful warm feeling and I've made numerous copies of his article (one stays on the front of my fridge) and passed them to friends and mailed to family. My sister has now started attending a church. That my friends is a miracle!!!
    BTW great book...(and books) by Metaxas...

    As always, Eric speaks with candor and wit. Yes, read the book and get "freaked out!" At least you'll be able to intelligently argue about his case for miracles. He will provoke questions you didn't already have.
    And since I was alerted to this video via email, I wasn't expecting Eric to actually be in the video. He wrote, with his usual comic aplomb, "The guy who plays me looks nothing like me. My apologies for that. Siegfried & Roy play themselves."

    I liked the video! I'm excited to start reading Miracles as I just purchased it online. It looks like it is packed with real life examples of miracles and the personal stories from those experiencing the miracles. I believe it will be well worth the time and money to read the book. I also do not have a personal connection to Eric or the publisher.

    Metaxes is a passionate and deeply devoted salesman.

    Sadly even Christians offended when we speak forth of signs and miraculous experiences… our walk isn’t for the Faint of Heart. God knows who’s ready to receive and accept the uncanny. 🙌

    If Eric wrote it, it's worth the time to read it and um, the money too. Yeah, it's worth the money too. Just so you know, I do not know him personally and I was under no threat to my life to write any of this. Promise.

    The question is, when is Metaxas going to get a picture of POTUS Trump holding his Bonhoeffer bio?

    This might pass muster in the pulpit, but it will get you laughed out the academy. You'll get heaps of praise from religious people and be largely ignored by actual scientists.

      Svatopluk Oh dear laughed at by Scientists. That would be humiliating.

      Well, this is one very profound scientific approach to the problem of miracles you should listen/read:

      There's a text called What's a Miracle by the same author in the Eric Voegelin Institute website.

      @@joaov.m.oliveira9903 have you read about this PhD study of prayer in Mozambique? Heidi has been experiencing this for years! The deaf are being healed especially. I would venture to say, to hear the message of God's love for them in Jesus Christ. It is in His name that they are healed. The blind are being healed as well. Even the dead are reported to have been raised, no before and after controlled study on that yet. Iris Global is the real deal, as a thousand new churches are added a year. (Heidi told me these were at least twenty each in the small villages.)
      There's also reported healings studies with great success in Brazil.

    Bullets don't attract each other. Appeals to incredulity never help to make a point.

      +Piesho Nais It's not an appeal to incredulity, and he's not giving a scaled-down example of what happened. He's using analogical reasoning to explain the statistical probability of what happened to the earth using something people can easily imagine, like bullets hitting each other in the grand canyon. I don't know why you don't understand this. You yourself used it when you said "bullets don't attract each other." You are using analogical reasoning to say that gravity "attracts". But gravity doesn't "attract". It is a warp in space-time caused by the presence of mass-energy in the gluon field. There is no attraction, and yet you used that word because it's a good analogical comparison to what we see happening.
