The miracle accounts of the New Testament describe how Jesus could calm the storms with a word, feed thousands with just scraps, heal the sick, and even walk on water. But are these accounts true? And what do they reveal about Christ? Anticipating the release of a Discovery Channel documentary, Michael Symmons Roberts presents an authoritative assessment of Jesus's miracles. With accessible writing and an attractive four-color design, each chapter of this book reviews a different well-known miracle, describes its significance by looking at the historical context, and explains its meaning for today's believers. By digging into the detail of the gospel accounts, Roberts uncovers new truths and understanding about who Jesus is.
