Description:

From the author of Mere Christianity, the greatest Christian thinker of our time makes the case for miracles.

No believer can deny the incarnation, through which God became Man. It is a central event of Christianity. It is also a miracle. A demonstration of the unique personal involvement of God in creation, to which every other miracle must be linked – despite going against the prevailing logic of our rationalist times.

In this moving and inspirational book, C. S. Lewis challenges the cynicism of those who won’t allow for the possibility of a supernatural world and makes a case for miracles, providing a poetic and joyous affirmation that miracles really do occur in everyday lives.


Review quote:

‘…a brilliant book, abounding in lucid exposition and illuminating metaphor.’
Observer

‘This is Dr Lewis’s most substantial and persuasive essay in Christian apologetics, and it is all the more impressive because it is the work of a poet as well as a philosopher.’
Church Times


Biographical note:

Born in Ireland in 1898, Clive Staples Lewis gained a triple First at Oxford and was Fellow and Tutor at Magdalen College from 1925-54, where he was a contemporary of Tolkien. In 1954 he became Professor of Mediaeval and Renaissance Literature at Cambridge. C. S. Lewis was for many years an atheist, until his conversion, memorably described in his autobiography ‘Surprised by Joy’: “I gave in, and admitted that God was God … perhaps the most dejected and reluctant convert in all England.” He is celebrated for his famous series of children’s books, the Narnia Chronicles (which have been filmed and broadcast many times), as well as his literary criticism and science fiction. C. S. Lewis died on 22nd November 1963.
