Verdict of History and Evidence and Significance
R. Douglas Geivet and Gary R. Habermas, eds. (InterVarsity Press, February 1997), 330p.
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.
Frank Morison (Zondervan: Aug 27, 1987)
English journalist Frank Morison had a tremendous drive to learn of Christ. The strangeness of the Resurrection story had captured his attention, and, influenced by skeptical thinkers at the turn of the century, he set out to prove that the story of Christ's Resurrection was only a myth. His probings, however, led him to discover the validity of the biblical record in a moving, personal way. Who Moved the Stone? is considered by many to be a classic apologetic on the subject of the Resurrection. Morison includes a vivid and poignant account of Christ's betrayal, trial, and death as a backdrop to his retelling of the climactic Resurrection itself. Among the chapter titles are: "The Book That Refused to Be Written", "The Real Case Against the Prisoner", "What Happened Before Midnight on Thursday", "Between Sunset and Dawn", "The Witness of the Great Stone", "Some Realities of That Far-off Morning".
