Download or read book Healing in the Early Church written by Andrew Daunton-Fear and published by Wipf and Stock Publishers. This book was released on 2009-07-01 with total page 211 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This monograph presents the most comprehensive investigation yet made into the healing activity of the Early Church. In contrast to early skeptics like B. B. Warfield, the author is convinced there was a vigorous healing ministry in the centuries that followed the apostles, though it fluctuated somewhat and changed its mode. Exorcism is prominently attested throughout the period. The pre-Nicene Fathers recognized its great apologetic value as a dramatic demonstration of the superiority of Jesus Christ over pagan gods. Interest in healing miracles per se appears to have been particularly characteristic of the less educated members of the Church and those who were chaste in their devotion to the cause of Christ. Amongst these groups gifts of healing were found, becoming rare it seems by the mid-third century, but well attested again later in monastic circles. In the pre-Nicene period anointing with oil (in the name of Christ) was clearly an avenue of healing and, though mentioned comparatively rarely, may have been widespread as part of the regular ministry of local clergy to the sick. Baptismal healing, physical as well as spiritual, also took place. In the post-Nicene Church the shrines of the martyrs became a prominent locus of healing. Devotion to this cult may have been encouraged by Church Fathers as an acceptable alternative to magical practices. But evidence suggests syncretism did occur and martyr's relics could be invested with quasi-magical awe. Most Fathers were positive about the medical profession, seeing it as an avenue of God's work, and in the late fourth century one pioneered the hospital which then spread throughout the eastern Mediterranean. In an appendix to his work, the author sets down nine pointers from the healing activity of the Early Church, and his own experience, to assist those engaged in the healing ministry today.

How can a healing ministry meet the diverse needs of those seeking relief? In This Is Where Your Healing Begins, the author guides readers on a journey to understand and discover the foundations of healing, such as spiritual gifts, authority, and courage challenges to healing, including various spiritual and mental roadblocks emotions needing healing—depression, unworthiness, guilt, and more Through the pages in this book, both healing ministers and supplicants will experience renewed faith in God’s ability to heal, trusting that He can do far more than we could ever ask or imagine.

Download or read book We All Get to Play written by Alastair Mitchell-Baker and published by Great Big Life Publishing. This book was released on 2019-05-21 with total page 214 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: In Matthew 15:22-28 Jesus describes healing and deliverance as the 'children's bread'. In other words, it is an everyday essential which no good father would withhold from his children. How much more so does our Father God want to bless us today with these gifts? Writing from his fundamental desire to close the gap between what we read in the New Testament description of Jesus and the early church's ministry and kingdom lifestyle, and our experiences as individual believers and, especially, as the family of God in our churches, Alastair Mitchell-Baker has crafted a vital foundational 'manual' for the practice and culture of healing ministry within the local church.Churches are of all types, styles and sizes. They look wonderfully and beautifully different, and so the full restoration of healing ministry will look and feel different too. Yet Jesus wants us all to be His feet and hands, His eyes, ears, and lips, to bring His restoring love and power to the people in our communities, towns, and cities.This book is designed as a resource for church leaders and members who want to see more healing and transformation in their local churches and communities. It is born of Alastair's personal journey and the experiences and teaching of his home church, The Gate, in Reading, UK.

Younger and older women will grow together as they use these lessons to walk through life together. Published in partnership with the Gospel Coalition.
Download or read book Liberating Ministry from the Success Syndrome written by R. Kent Hughes and published by Crossway. This book was released on 2008-01-07 with total page 202 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Every year thousands of God's servants leave the ministry convinced they are failures. Years ago, in the midst of a crisis of faith, Kent Hughes almost became one of them. But instead he and his wife Barbara turned to God's Word, determined to learn what God had to say about success and to evaluate their ministry from a biblical point of view. This book describes their journey and their liberation from the "success syndrome"-the misguided belief that success in ministry means increased numbers. In today's world it is easy to be seduced by the secular thinking that places a number on everything. But the authors teach that true success in ministry lies not in numbers but in several key areas: faithfulness, serving, loving, believing, prayer, holiness, and a Christlike attitude. Their thoughts will encourage readers who grapple with feelings of failure and lead them to a deeper, fuller understanding of success in Christian ministry. This book was originally published by Tyndale in 1987 and includes a new preface.
