How do you prove that miracles exist? Everyone has an opinionated response but if you're a sceptic then no historical evidence is likely to convince you. \u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eIn \u003c\/strong\u003e\u003cem\u003eMiracles\u003c\/em\u003e, C.S. Lewis challenges the rationalists and cynics who are mired in their lack of imagination and provides a poetic and joyous affirmation that miracles really do occur in everyday lives. He presents the idea that miracles are not compatible with nature and thus introduces evidence of a supernatural world. Lewis defines a miracle as \"an interference with nature by supernatural power\" and concludes they are not statistical anomalies because \"miracles do not, in fact, break the laws of nature.\"\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eLewis encourages readers to not only trust personal experiences as a basis of understanding miracles because one's perception cannot be the concluding basis, and we must define miracles to fully understand them. \u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eThis is a book for C. S. Lewis fans and readers interested in Christians philosophy. Lewis says, \"This book is intended as a preliminary to historical inquiry. I am not a trained historian and I shall not examine the historical evidence for the Christian miracles. My effort is to put my readers in a position to do so.\"\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eAbout the Author\u003c\/b\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003e\u003ci\u003eLewis, C.
