medical miracles - doctors, saints and healing in the modern world (triple helix - Christmas 2009)

Historian and haematologist Dr Duffin diagnosed severe acute leukaemia from a bone marrow sample. Surprisingly the patient survived, following prayers to a woman 200 years previously who had become Canada's first Catholic saint. This led Duffin to explore the Vatican Secret Archives. Four purported miracles must lie behind every 'saint', but...

Does God Still Do Miracles? - An MD Examines (Book Review) (triple helix - summer 2008)

This excellent short book deserves to be widely read, not least by Christian doctors and church leaders. 'Health and wealth prosperity teaching' flourishes across the world.

Is Sexual Orientation a Myth? (triple helix - autumn 2004)

The document, Some Issues in Human Sexuality,[1] recently debated in the General Synod, raises important questions about the significance of bisexuality, not least for our understanding of sexual orientation.[2] It claims, for instance, that Ancient Greek and Roman cultures did not have sexual orientation terminology in their language (p219).

Jesus - the Pivot of History and Medical Care (triple helix - spring 2000)

The Greatest...Fiction? (The Greatest Person)

None of these aspects of Jesus' life is based on meagre evidence. They are major themes that permeate every piece of information we have about him. They are so interwoven that the only alternative approach is to maintain that the Jesus of the Gospels is substantially a figure of fiction...

The Greatest...Death? (The Greatest Person)

Christ's execution at the hands of the Romans in about 30AD must surely be the most famous death of all time. His cross became the central symbol of Christianity, but why was it so significant? The apostle Paul, in a letter he wrote around 54AD to the Christians in Corinth, gave...

The Greatest...Surprise? (The Greatest Person)

Now we come to the crunch. For we are told that when men had rejected and crucified Jesus, God publicly set his seal on him by raising him from the dead! However improbable such an event may seem, the evidence for his resurrection continues to withstand the most careful scrutiny....

The Greatest...Offer? (The Greatest Person)
