Do Miracles Prove The Existence Of God

This contains a fully resourced, differentiated lesson on whether miracles prove the existence of God. In the main part of the lesson students use visual prompts to discuss the different types of miracles, then work in groups to discuss and make notes on the strengths and weaknesses of two miracle case studies (Biblical - Raising of Lazarus from the dead, Modern - Miracles at Lourdes), explain two philosophical views towards miracles (linking them back to the case studies), and then finally complete a 12-mark evaluation question.

Learning Objectives:

To describe the different types of miracles.
To explain the arguments for and against miracles.
To evaluate whether miracles provide convincing proof for the existence of God.
