Miracles Made Possible

At a young age, William Thomas Tucker witnessed a drunk driver run down a playmate. Not understanding how an all-loving God could allow such unfair cruelty, Tucker lost his faith and elected to become an atheist. Over the ensuing three decades, Tucker built a successful business and family life without, he presumed, God's help. Then his world turned upside down as he lost not only his wife, but his business career and personal fortune--and almost lost his children to social services. In his pain and frustration, he turned to what he perceived to be an uncaring and unloving God and demanded an explanation. He was instantly rewarded with a series of larger-than-life miracles sent, unmistakably, from God. Thus began a 20-year experience of asking for and receiving miracles in his life for himself, his family, and his friends. Miracles Made Possible shares not only the amazing stories of how these miracles came to pass but also the techniques Tucker used in asking God to perform them. He shares the 3-step process he's followed countless times to obtain miracles both great and small just when he needed them most. Tucker insists that it doesn't take a saint to receive miracles, just someone with the courage to ask for and the faith to believe in extraordinary outcomes.

Medieval miracle stories from a major pilgrim destination in 12c France. In the second half of the twelfth century Rocamadour developed an international reputation as a centre of devotion to the Virgin Mary, drawing pilgrims from Spain, Italy, Germany, England and the Latin East as well as France, as witnessed by the 126 miracle stories written there in 1172-3, here translated for the first time. Reflecting and enhancing Rocamadour's status (aristocratic figures feature prominently), they throw light on many of the dangers faced by medieval men and women: illness and injury; imprisonment; warfare; arbitrary justice; and natural disasters. In his introduction Marcus Bull identifies issues which the collection helps to elucidate, and assesses thevalue of the text as source material, particularly in view of the lack of other chronicles from southern France for the period. He makes comparisons with other texts, such as the miracle collection compiled at the shrine of Thomas Becket at Canterbury, and argues that the monks of Rocamadour asserted their importance through the miracles, in the face of competition from neighbouring monastic communities. MARCUS BULL is Andrew W. Mellon Distinguished Professor of Medieval and Early Modern Studies at the University of North Carolina, Chapel Hill.

Philosophers who wish to argue for the rationality of belief in God frequently employ a 'god-of-the-gaps' strategy. This strategy consists in trying to find a phenomenon that cannot be explained by natural science, and insisting that it can be explained only by reference to the activity of God. Philosophical discussion of miracles usually revolves around the attempt to link a miracle to God in just this way. One of the problems with this approach is that it is very difficult to identify anything as being forever beyond the power of science to explain. Science continues to advance upon the territory occupied by the god of the gaps. Thus it is desirable to develop an account of divine agency that will not be subject to revision in the face of scientific progress. This book is just such an account. Drawing on recent work in the theory of action, it shows that we can attribute God's agency to an event in nature without eliminating the possibility that it might be explained scientifically. In bringing God's actions out of the gaps, we avoid the possibility that future discoveries in science will make our talk of divine agency obsolete.
