It's a Miracle!
The Bible includes history, poetry, and instructions for relationships, living and worship. It contains all that God wants us to know about him, ourselves, and salvation. There are some things that the Bible is: a book of love, justice, wisdom and common sense, and some things it isn’t: a book of science or a book with answers to every problem. Among other things, the Bible teaches us about the establishment of the Kingdom of God, and tells us that God loves each one of us and encourages us to love him. It brings to the reader fear, fact, and faith.
We read in the Bible of many remarkable things about which we can only say, ‘It’s a miracle!’
I trust that this book, introducing to you a few Biblical miracles, will encourage you to open and examine the Bible’s pages to see what happened, and why God chose to act in the ways he did and see what you can learn from its teaching and the example of people in it. It may even turn your life upside down, as it constantly does mine.

Remembrance of Things Forgotten
A Remembrance of Things Forgotten describes Steven’s journey from being a high-powered lawyer, to going to Seminary, and then to being an interfaith hospital chaplain intern seeing cancer patients on two oncology units at a major New York Medical Center. The book describes his visits with patients and explores the heartbreak – and inspiration – of their suffering and how they opened his heart to the precious worth of their lives and to the very real presence of a divine love, realer than real, shining concretely in each room and in each patient’s heart. The resulting spiritual insights provide a powerful – and even prophetic – message to us all as individuals and as a society: how a love of infinite worth shines within each of us and is present in everyday acts of simple kindness and compassion; and how the ultimate meaning of our lives resides in that love, and not in the transitory whims of career, ambition, power, wealth, or possessions.
While we often forget these simple “truths” in our hurried life, we are nevertheless capable of remembering what we have forgotten if we only notice what is before us, open our hearts, and quiet our minds. If we do take the time to notice and see what is before us, we will see God’s love shining closer to us than we are to ourselves; and we will hear God calling us, not necessarily to do great things, but to grow each day in loving-kindness and take care of each other with patience, kindness and a listening heart.
