Miracle: The Inner Circle Writers' Group Christian Stories Anthology 2018

Part of the problem of today’s society - arguably, its most essential problem - is that it lacks a vision which goes right to the heart of human suffering and still finds that hope, light and even joy are truer than misery, death and pain. The stories in this book each reflect upon that problem in some way, and conclude that, rather than being either a meaningless and indifferent universe, or one in which we are persecuted victims of a faceless power, perhaps there is something else at work: perhaps — just perhaps, mind — the older world was not as deluded by superstition as many think, but actually had a pretty firm grasp of certain foundational truths which the last hundred years or so have eroded away in the popular mind. Perhaps a Christian story is a way, in other words, of revealing something about reality which few other kinds of story can do. Whether or not the authors in this book succeeded in their revelations is up to you. But it can make quite a difference to a life when they do succeed.
