Synopsis

Jesus demonstrated the presence and power of God by performing miracles. He turned water into wine, healed the sick, calmed the storm, opened blind eyes, and raised the dead. While these beloved stories draw our attention to divine power, Christ’s miracles signify something deeper—they’re windows into God’s grand story of human desperation and redemption. Every time we see Jesus performing a miracle, we also get a glimpse into the gift of desperation, a gift that opens us to the dramatic power of God through our desperate need for him. 
 
By explaining the meaning and significance of these miracles, Jessica LaGrone shows us their relevance for our lives today. She unpacks how understanding the meaning of Christ’s miracles will help us better grasp the salvation God has brought into the world, see that our weakness is an invitation for God to work powerfully in our lives, and remind us that we need God on our best days just as much as we do on our worst.

Goodreads review by Mary Ellin on February 12, 2021

One of several 2020 Lenten book selections, I chose this title because my pastor patterned his Lenten sermon series on each of the chapters in this book, and I wanted to follow along. Unlike some Lenten reads of mine, I read this all at once instead of one chapter at a time stretching out through Le......more
