Customer Reviews for Judson Press Making Your Church a House of Healing

Author, pastor, and spiritual director Michael Gemignani affirms that Jesus Christ established the church primarily as an instrument of spiritual healing. Each local congregation, as the Body of Christ on earth, should, therefore, have spiritual healing as the focus of its ministry. In this practical primer for churches, Gemignani explores these key questions:

•  What is spiritual healing?
• Why is it so important?
• How can my church develop a ministry focused on spiritual healing?
• What obstacles we are likely to encounter and how might we overcome them?

The book includes questions for small-group discussion and congregational action, and concludes with examples of prayers and rituals that might be used for healing, as well as additional resources to assist churches in their healing ministries.
