Do you know the seven marks of every authentic miracle?


Padre Pio


Are you aware that a miracle's best friend is rigorousscientific investigation?


Lanciano


Can you name the five kinds of miracles?


St. Bernadette


About few things have more false claims been made than miracles -- claims by skeptics and believers alike, few of whom know what the Church actually says about miracles.

The result?

A popular culture whose muddled concepts of miracles deny us any sense of the character and meaning in those events that the Church deems miraculous.

Modern man -- believers and unbelievers alike -- is often blind to compelling evidence that miracles still occur regularly, even in our day.

Now comes the remedy: Understanding Miracles, the book that gives you the most comprehensive, careful, and thoughtful discussion of miracles available today.

This amazing book was delivered into our warehouse this morning, and is waiting to be shipped to you right away.

These 350-plus information-packed pages introduce you to authoritative Church teachings about miracles while exploring hundreds of particular miracles from Old Testament times to today.

As you read Understanding Miracles, your eyes will be opened as you finally discover what the Church really teaches about miracles and how much sense those teachings make.

From Understanding Miracles, you'll learn (among many other things):

* What a miracle is (There's a 90% chance your current understanding is wrong);

* What the Church teaches infallibly about miracles;

* The particular miracles we are required to accept; and those we are free to doubt;

* The five kinds of miracles (and why it makes a difference);

* The seven marks of every authentic miracle (can you name even two?);

* The Eucharist: it's a mystery but not strictly-speaking a miracle. Do you know why?

* The strict criteria by which the Church evaluates supernatural events;

* And countless other topics to deepen your knowledge and understanding of miracles, and draw you closer to the Author of them all.


Understanding Miracles boasts scores of photographs, countless scholarly references, and a huge bibliography for those yearning to know more.

This book includes a serious review of each and every major miracle in the Bible, with an explanation of the character and importance of each. And there are shorter discussions of hundreds of lesser miracles, too.

Alongside its reverent accounts of authenticated miracles, there are tales of con-men and crazy folks, false mystics and fake visionaries. These episodes are evaluated by the author with such remarkable evenhandedness that this book has credibility greater than that of almost any other book on this topic.

Understanding Miracles will surprise and intrigue souls who are skeptical of miracles -- and it will liberate true believers from foolish (and sometimes harmful) popular notions about miracles.

If you have the least truth interest in the about miracles, this is the book for you!
