Using his characteristic lucidity and wit, C.S.Lewis explains how all miracles either prepare or result from the Incarnation, the greatest miracle of all.

He asserts that a Christian must not only accept miracles, but rejoice in them as a testimony of God's unique personal involvement in his creation.

‘The central miracle asserted by Christians is the Incarnation. They say that God became Man. Every other miracle prepares the way for this, or results from this.’

This is the key statement of Miracles, in which C. S. Lewis shows that a Christian must not only accept but rejoice in miracles as a testimony of the unique personal involvement of God in his creation.

Developing his argument, Lewis challenges the rationalists and cynics who are mired in their lack of imagination and provides a poetic and joyous affirmation that miracles really do occur in our everyday lives.
