Miracle: an event that appears unexplainable by the laws of nature and so is held to be supernatural in origin or an act of God. – American Heritage Dictionary Whenever something out of the ordinary happens – a hail-Mary pass that scores the winning touchdown, an unexpected windfall of cash, a phone call from a long-lost friend, a biopsy that comes back negative – we call it a miracle. Through history, people of all cultural and religious backgrounds have believed in miracles. From Constantine’s vision of the Cross at Milvian Bridge to the Star of Bethlehem that heralded the rise of a new messiah, empires and religions have flowered or faltered based on perceived miracles and visions. While skeptics might argue that miraculous happenings are nothing more or less than mere coincidence, believers say they are the work of God.

Randall Floyd explores the fascinating truth behind some of the most famous miracles and visions in history, including:
