    Aug 8 2024

    Send us a Message

    Can modern society's shift towards self-reliance be impacting our faith and mental health? Join us as we explore the complex history and contemporary relevance of Christian healing ministries within the church. We reflect on the challenges the church has faced with divine healing, particularly in light of modernism, industrialization, and the Enlightenment. Discover how these societal shifts have changed our perception of God and healing, leading to a diminished sense of the supernatural aspects of faith. We emphasize the need to re-establish our trust in God, recognizing the fundamental elements of our faith, such as the resurrection and virgin birth.

    This episode also highlights the transformative power of prayer in healing chronic or long-term illnesses that defy traditional medical treatments. We delve into the role of Acorn in facilitating divine intervention through prayer in the name of Jesus. Hear inspiring stories from healing hubs where local Christians unite to pray for those in need, showcasing prayer as a powerful and accessible practice within communities. We underline that healing through prayer is available to all believers, regardless of their religious titles or theological expertise. Join us as we continue this important conversation and encourage you to share your thoughts and experiences with Christian healing in the UK.
