#134 – Jesus’ diverse healing methods
With Dr Daniel O'Neill
We all know that healing was a large part of the public ministry of Jesus of Nazareth. The major world religions and the primal religions share the concept of a divine healer. But what was unique about Jesus’ healing ministry?
During this webinar we will explore the patterns of the Messianic hope in the Old Testament, the fulfilment of these in the New, and the many diverse healing methods recorded in the Gospels.
From this, we hope to capture a vision for the diverse ways both the whole church and the whole Christian healthcare community can participate in God’s work of healing all of creation.
