Miracles? Still?

There is something about the very notion of the miraculous that offends most modern sensibilities. We think that a miracle is something from another, ruder, more credulous, age. Or we try to get around it by saying that “everything” is a miracle, thus, nothing is.

I’m not going to try to explain everything here, but if you listen to one or the other of these sermons I hope you will be convinced that there are miracles yet.

Oh by the way, when I was looking at the raw files for this week’s sermons it looked like they were the same size and my first thought was that I had somehow copied the same file twice. As it turned out, one sermon is 19:06 and the other is 19:12. I don’t think I could be that close even if I had written them out.

Thanks for reading and listening,
