Uncle Phil's Diner: Interactive Dinner Theater by Craig Wilson

Why do you believe in God? Why do you believe in the Bible? Why do you believe in miracles? These are questions that Christians are often asked by sceptics. The field of apologetics attempts to provide rational answers to these and other questions. Unfortunately, apologetical answers to these questions are often abstract and philosophical. However, the Christian apologist/evangelist has a much more powerful argument in their arsenal: the argument from miracles. Miracles are the original Christian apologetic. It was through the witnessing of miracles that Christianity was originally spread. By applying modern tools of philosophical inquiry and scientific methodology, Wilson is able to establish a core set of miracles which defy naturalistic explanations and strongly point toward occurrences of Special Divine Action (SDA). However, once these occurrences are proven to be genuine miracles, several questions remain. Why does God sometimes perform miracles? Why does he often answer no? How do these random acts fit into his overall plans of redemption? By answering these and other questions, Wilson develops a comprehensive apologetic for both Christianity in general and the Renewal Movement in particular.

Craig Wilson is an entrepreneur, consultant, author, and coach. He has founded three businesses, just recently selling the theater production company he and his wife founded in 1990. He is a leading authority on loyalty, brand development, and direct marketing and counts some of the world's most iconic brands in his listing of experience including Kiehl's, Patagonia, Seventh Generation, prAna Living, Burton Snowboards, and Revolution Living, among others. He's a three-time NCAA National Champion coach and a passionate observer of human behavior.

Over the past decade Craig has studied the direct marketing businesses that create the most passionate, loyal customers and holds a firm belief creating advocacy is possible anywhere. Craig began his career as an NCAA Division One Sailing Coach. Winning his first National Championship was the springboard to understanding what motivates people's actions. He launched a theater production company in 1990, wrote and produced a highly successful, interpersonal skills based seminar called Playing With Fire, and while with Patagonia, Craig developed their direct business strategy based on a seminal consumer behavior study, forming the first truly multi-channel marketing organization, growing the direct channel from $2M to $100M over a six-year period.

Craig is a sought after speaker and has lectured on the topic of loyalty and advocacy as the basic tenet of branding strategy at the University of Southern California, the University of California, and Pepperdine University's Graziadio Graduate School of Business. He's the co-author of Creating Advocates, a peer reviewed study on why consumers become fans of brands. The Compass and the Nail is his first book.
