Miracles Unveiled: The Problem with Miracles

Welcome to "Miracles Unveiled," the podcast that delves into the fascinating world of miracles within the Christian church. Join us as we embark on a thought-provoking journey to explore the deeper meaning and implications of miracles, specifically focusing on the topic of healing. In this podcast, we'll address the profound questions that often arise when it comes to miracles. Is the power of miracles primarily about individual growth? What happens when miracles don't manifest in a way where everyone experiences healing? We'll dive deep into these questions and more, offering insights and perspectives that challenge conventional beliefs. We understand the struggle that can arise when people feel left out or discouraged because they were not chosen for healing. It can inadvertently send a message about God's love being selective, leaving many with doubts and questions. Through engaging discussions and expert interviews, we aim to shed light on these complex issues and provide a platform for open dialogue. Join us on this enlightening journey as we seek to understand the intricate relationship between miracles, faith, and the love of God. "Miracles Unveiled" is your space for meaningful conversations and insights into the world of Christian miracles.

How Do You Know What You Know? Where Do You Go for Truth?

Michael dons his red shirt to address the issue of how we know what we know. There are multiple sources of theology in every person's life, the differences are in the priorities we give them. In addition to the Bible, Michael talks about culture, also known as tradition; what your parents taught you; reason, or rationality; experience; emotions. What is the Stage of Truth, and how should these various actors in our lives be arranged so we can properly comprehend truth? In the end, not only does Michael survive, completely throwing out the theory that red shirts always die, but he very clearly describes how we arrive at our authority for truth.
