Miracles by Mark Forrest
Do you need a miracle? When crises come crashing into our lives, leaving us hopeless, we all long for divine intervention. We cry, beg, and negotiate.
Do you need a miracle? When crises come crashing into our lives, leaving us hopeless, we all long for divine intervention. We cry, beg, and negotiate.
Dr. Mark Forrest brings his down-to-earth teaching style, sprinkled with a touch of Louisiana humor to reveal a powerful picture of who Jesus is, and how He answers our prayers of desperation.
What do people do to receive a miracle? Who has the power and the authority to grant miracles? Who can we trust and rely on to save us? Didn’t God perform miracles and wondrous signs? God certainly can and will answer our needs, however He yearns for us to look beyond.
The book Miracles highlights stories of real people in crises from the Old and New Testaments to show examples of how God used miraculous events throughout time. Using the eyewitness testimony found in the Book of John, Dr. Forrest shares the signs behind seven of the thirty-seven miracles recorded in all four Gospels.
From the big picture of God seeking a relationship with us to the detailed promises of a “zoe” life, abundant and eternal, Dr. Forrest weaves a tapestry of God’s love. This study takes the reader beyond the miracle to discover the Miracle Maker and the greatest miracle—healing for the soul, and the “life” we desire.

Endorsement
“Mark Forrest has gifted the Church with yet another excellent work of theological interpretation crafted for the edification of every believer. Forrest argues the miracles worked by Jesus point us beyond those truly amazing events considered merely on their own. Instead, they function as signs calling us to have faith in the One who is truly God come in human flesh, the Lord Jesus Christ. So, take up and read, then believe and be blessed!” – Malcolm B. Yarnell III, Research Professor of Theology, Southwestern Baptist Theological Seminary, Author of Theology for Every Person, Special Revelation and Scripture, and The Formation of Christian Doctrine.
In this miracle where Jesus walks on water, we discover that Jesus gets into the boat with us.
