#6 - FAITH & HEALING

IS HEALING JUST A MATTER OF FAITH? OR IS IT MORE COMPLICATED THAN THAT?
1

One of the most damaging things you can say to someone struggling with a long-term health problem is: “miraculous healing is a simple matter of faith.”

Many well-meaning people approach me with this attitude. Most are sensitive enough not to say it so bluntly, but they think my pain is a problem that can be solved by applying the simple formula of the right amount of the correct type of faith and voila! Healing.

In the first place, as a student of the Bible, I am convinced that this is a simplistic and inaccurate view of what the Bible teaches. Secondly, when we approach those who are hurting with this attitude, it can cause tragic emotional and spiritual harm.

Please join us as we consider what the Bible says about faith and healing, and what it means for those of us who experience ongoing suffering.
