Echoes of a Voice: We are not Alone

by James W Sire

Overview

This book deals with profound experiences - emotional, intellectual, highly charged, usually sudden, unannounced, often odd, some weird, others glorious. Do these experiences mean anything? Are we puzzling over questions we can't answer no matter how long we try? Is that puzzling itself meaningful? If so, is that meaning significant? Are these experiences actually signals that there is something more than to human life - our human life, my life - perhaps something transcendent? The book endswith a discussion of the need for an apologetic that includes a wide range of biblical revelation - not just religious experience, but historical and scientific evidence and rational arguments involving both a positive case and a negative refutationof objections.

Editorial Reviews

'What makes this book worth reading is... [H]is engagement with such a wide variety of poetry and literature. He gives a fascinating analysis of Pascal's poem, Memorial, for instance.... I hope Sire's work will inspire more Christian theologians and philosophers to write on question like why we find storie and poetic language so powerful? What is the trascendent power of fiction art?.... I think questions like these should also pique the interest of non-believers and skeptics as well.'-Ben Thompson, Reviews in Religion and Theology, Volume 25, Issue 1, January 2018
