That's legacy p.m. Investments.com. Welcome to the Eric McTaxus show with your host, Eric Metaxus.

Hey there, folks.

I have to say every now and again, we get a guest on the program that I feel, you know,

this really should be a Socrates in the city program because the guest is too distinguished simply to appear on this silly radio show.

But actually, the radio show suddenly becomes less silly when you get one of these kinds of guests.

Today, I really am thrilled and I have the privilege of speaking with J.P. Morland.

It's safe to say he's one of the leading evangelical thinkers of our time.

He's a distinguished professor of philosophy at Talbot School of Theology.

And he is, gosh, he has degrees in philosophy, theology, and chemistry.

I think that might be a typo.

His work has appeared in numerous publications, including philosophy and phenomenological research.

Have you heard of that one?

Has your subscription lapsed to philosophy and phenomenological research?

He really is someone we're thrilled to have on the program. J.P. Moreland, welcome. It's so good to be with you, my brother. Thank you for lifting the tone of this conversation by not being me. I'm going to do my best to let you talk. Honestly, I'm thrilled to talk to you, but I'm more thrilled to talk to you than I would even normally be because you've written a book titled A Simple Guide to

Experience Miracles, Instruction and Inspiration for Living Supernaturally in Christ. Many people

think that one is either some kind of an intellectual

theologian or the kind of a Christian who believes in miracles. You and I know that's nonsense,

but I'm glad to, you know, to show that that's nonsense by having you on the program as the author of this book.

When did you decide to write this book and why?
