The first of six talks during Lent by The Rev Richard Harries ,
Dean of King's College, London 1: Resurrection - Miracle or Moonshine?
The Bishop of Durham has said, 'We are faced with the claim that God is prepared to work knockdown physical miracles in order to let a select number of people into the secret of his incarnation, resurrection and salvation, but he is not prepared to use such methods to deliver from Auschwitz or prevent Hiroshima.'
In this first talk, Richard Harries challenges this interpretation and explores the meaning of 'resurrection'.
