I thank God daily for miraculously sparing me from near death experiences and life threatening episodes. Now, God is preparing me once again for my return to heaven one day to never ever to return to earth again. Mean time I will serve Him faithfully.

Hagiography is a rich source for our knowledge of many aspects of medieval culture and tradition. The lives and miracles of the saints may be read on several levels, both as an expression of the dominant ideology and as a reflection of long-term themes in medieval society. The essays in this volume attempt to exploit the Latin hagiographical sources of the medieval West as means of illuminating our understanding of a variety of such themes: childhood and adolescence, elite and popular religion, sainthood and politics, the mechanism of canonisation, women in the church, dreams, visions and the concept of the miraculous, and the convergence of heresy, disbelief and piety.

You are never as far from a miracle as it first appears. You are a miracle. The very fact you are breathing right now is a miracle. It is a miracle you were ever born. Your body is a miracle, and the way it operates is miraculous. Miracles those unexplainable, remarkable occurrences are happening all around you. Miracles are the supernatural...
You Believe God Can Still Do Miracles, But How Do You Know Which Stories Are True? A blind man suddenly sees. A lame man gets up and walks. A little boy is raised from the dead. You believe the biblical accounts that these miracles happened, but do you believe eye-witness reports that miracles still happen today? Between shady faith-healers, weeping madonnas, and gimmicks like holy land water, it's difficult--even foolish--to believe every miracle account we hear. So how do we discount the fakes without missing out on the real miracles in the process? Award-winning journalist Tim Stafford shares captivating stories of modern-day miracles, wrestling over what is credible and what isn't. But more than that, he offers wisdom and insight to help you figure out the role miracles should play in your faith. Should you expect miracles? Ignore them? Pray for them? How active is God in the world today? And could he be more active in your own life? Learn how to explore these questions with wisdom and honesty, growing your faith and hope along the way. "Tim Stafford puts the right person at the center of miracle stories: not the charismatic leader through whom miracles come, nor the person who is healed, but God himself. This book will help you see genuine miracles as part of God's way of telling his own story, and will teach you to listen for what God is saying through them."--David Neff, Editor in Chief, Christianity Today "Veteran journalist reports on the world of miracles with neither skepticism nor naiveté but with clarity and reverent honesty. A remarkable achievement."--Eugene H. Peterson, Professor Emeritus of Spiritual Theology, Regent College, Vancouver, B.C. "Do you want to believe in miracles but have been put off either by Christians who insist that every problem should be solved by a miracle, or by the skepticism of God's miraculous intervention in human experience? Then this is your book! As a journalist, Stafford squarely faces and differentiates between actual occurrences of miracles and disappointing non-occurrences; as a Christian, he makes a conscious effort to be faithful to God's revelation in Scripture. The result is a book that will instruct you on how to think biblically about issues relating to miracles. The summary statements in the last two chapters alone are worth the price of the book."--Ajith Fernando, Teaching Director, Youth for Christ, Sri Lanka "Tim Stafford dives headfirst into this investigation of those special events we call miracles--signs and wonders that demonstrate God's supernatural power. Probing, clarifying, and speaking to skeptics and believers alike, Stafford is thoroughly convincing as he digs deep to comment on biblical and contemporary examples."--Lucy Shaw, author, Breath for the Bones, What the Light Was Like "Tim has taken one of the most important and fascinating topics in the world and written about it with honesty, faith, and grace. His look at miracles through history and across cultures is full of wisdom and longing. This book--if not actually miraculous itself--is at least providential."--John Ortberg, senior pastor of Menlo Park Presbyterian Church and author of Who Is This Man? "When I started reading this fine book, I was what Tim Stafford labels a "Semi-Believing Doubter" on the subject of present-day miracles. I no longer wear that label. Miracles is a gripping--and convincing--account of how God continues to astonish us with signs of a power that will someday come into its fullness!"--Richard J. Mouw, PhD, President and Professor of Christian Philosophy, Fuller Theological Seminary

2 God's Everyday Miracles can often go ignored or forgotten, wiped away as coincidence, or just good fortune. God is constantly working in our lives and we simply become oblivious to it. I don't believe that this is our intention, but the world can unknowingly skew our vision. This workbook is intended to aid us in removing the blinders over our eyes. It is also partly intended to function as a journal, so that you the reader may use it as a tool to regain your vision. Let's start re-training ourselves to see and acknowledge where we should be singing God's praises. Let's train ourselves to begin looking into our lives and notice where He has been at work. Let's develop a God-microscope to help us interpret our crazy lives and see where we have experienced God's mighty hand. I have both heard and experienced countless acts of God! We all have! God is constantly active in our lives! Let's stop sweeping His miracles under the rug. Instead, let us start uncovering them! Let's start training ourselves to notice them, so we can sing about them! Let's praise His mighty name!
