Last weekend, as I was driving down the interstate in Houston, I noticed, not for the first time, a billboard that claims, “Signs, Miracles, and Wonders! Every Sunday at 11:00 AM.” I turned towards my wife and quipped, “I didn’t realize you could schedule them.” But in all seriousness, how should one express such things to others, something like a miracle or a sign? If language is how we report the world, how does one speak of their public or private experience of God? Is someone who has a religious experience able to speak authoritatively about what has been revealed to them? And if so, how are we to determine if their important revelation is legitimate? Is religious experience a type of proof of God and a justification of belief? Clearly we have lots of questions. Join us as we wrap up our series on Religious Experience.
