Geivett and Habermas have collected some of the best available scholars around today to present a case for the actions of God in human history. The book begins with David Hume's work on miracles along with a response from Antony Flew (the eminent Humean scholar). Then, a barrage of Christian philosophers and theologians tackle the issue of miracles in each chapter. Some of the chapter titles include - Defining Miracles (Richard Purtill), Miracles and the Modern Mind (Norman L. Geisler), History and Miracles (Francis J. Beckwith, Recognizing a Miracle (Winfried Corduan), Science, Miracles, Agency, Theory & the God-of-the-Gaps (J.P. Moreland), The Evidential Value of Miracles (Douglas Geivett), Miracles in the World Religions (David K. Clark), The Incarnation of Jesus Christ (John S. Feinberg), The Empty Tomb of Jesus (William Lane Craig), The Resurrection Appearances of Jesus (Gary R. Habermas), and more.

Basinger responds to Anthony Flew's contention that: "the historian must maintain with respect to any alleged miracle that the event did not in fact occur as reported". Basinger concedes that Flew's argument has merit, but argues that it ultimately fails. And by the way, to save a trip to dictionary.com, "nomology" is the science of laws. Basinger concludes: "The fact that an alleged occurrence is incompatible with current nomologicals must indeed be seriously considered when the historian rules on its historicity. However, Flew has failed to demonstrate that a seeming counterinstance must be shown to be consistent with current nomologicals before the historian can justifiably rule that it can be known to have occurred. Alleged 'miracles' cannot be dismissed this easily."
