Synopsis

Does God Still Do Miracles Today? A Simple Guide to Experience Miracles will give you confidence in and awareness of the supernatural realm as you learn how to flourish spiritually by experiencing more miraculous interventions in your life and ministry. Internationally renowned philosopher J. P. Moreland looks at the nature of miracles and explains why bearing and receiving credible testimony to God's miraculous acts is a crucial feature of a mature Jesus-follower. He also shows how to distinguish a real miracle from a mere coincidence. Miracles bring comfort to believers, strengthening faith in God and creating boldness in our lives.While miraculous healings have occurred frequently throughout church history, Moreland provides data showing how the last fifty years have seen a massive outbreak of miracles and supernatural activity. Today, he argues, the church should humbly expect to see more of these miraculous works of God than we do.Moreland looks at topics like:The relationship between sickness and suffering, along with two different ways to pray for healingHow to discern clearly the difference between a genuine miracle and a mere coincidenceHow to increase your faith that petitionary prayer really works and what to make of unanswered prayerSix ways God speaks to us and advice for hearing God wisely and biblicallyThe role angels play in our lives, how they appear to us, and how to combat demonic influenceThe biblical basis for most Near-Death Experiences and what we can learn from themA Simple Guide to Experience Miracles increases your expectation and hope that God can and often does miraculously intervene to bring help and comfort. Moreland shows that it makes rational sense to step out and engage in employing Kingdom power and to strengthen courage to witness and act on behalf of the gospel of Jesus. Filled with inspiring, credible, motivating accounts of miracles, he covers five different kinds of supernatural activities and provides practical wisdom about how to begin practices such as healing prayer and learning to deal with the demonic.

Goodreads review by Emily on December 23, 2024

Really, really interesting. This is not a book I would typically pick up, but I was somewhat familiar with Moreland's work as a philosopher, so I gave it a chance. I'm so glad I did! There are two specific teachings about miracles in this book that really resonated: First, that supernatural interven......more

Goodreads review by Nick on January 08, 2022

JP Moreland has a logical mind like me. He is an apologist and not in any Christianity bubble of anti-intellectualism. He just simply is aware of what it means for us if we actually believe what we say we believe. Truly I walked away from this book, expecting to see God move more, desiring to see Hi......more

Goodreads review by Caroline on March 11, 2022

The author's purpose as he states it was to invigorate our love for God and increase our confidence that we can truly know him and his power today. This is what's missing for many of us. We have sound doctrine but no passion because God isn't real and intimate and we don't realize how "for us" he is......more

Goodreads review by William on April 21, 2022

This is an essential book that all Christians should read. Written by a balanced and thoughtful thinker, it points us to the power of God resident in his church, a power that we should joyfully access. I can't recommend highly enough. My only reservation was the last chapter on after-death experienc......more

Goodreads review by Carson on May 17, 2024

This is definitely one of those books that is going on my “life-changing” shelf. Not overly technical, this book does go over some brief arguments for why miracles and other supernatural phenomena are not irrational. Moreland also sketches out an overview of epistemology for why we can count such ex......more
