The journey towards health and wellness can sometimes be a long, lonely and frustrating process, but it doesn’t have to be. The goal of this workshop is to provide a context where you can experience loving companionship as you learn to welcome your whole being into the healing process.
This workshop will explore principles initially developed by William Malarkey, MD, Wexner Medical Center, in his book Finding J.O.Y.: A biblical journey to good health. These principles are rooted in the Scriptures and supported by medical and clinical research.
God wants to occupy every corner of our lives, exercising His Lordship over our physical, intellectual, emotional, relational, and spiritual lives. In this workshop, you will begin a journey towards biblical health through honest examination of your life, inspiring Scriptures, application of some practical tools, and identifying your own personal health & wellness goals.
A historical Methodist approach
"Spiritual healing is one manifestation of the power and life and holiness of God. It is the result of the individual actively being open in every area of being to the reign of God. That result may be aided by those who have admitted God to the throne of their own lives and who, by reason of that fact, become the allies of God on the one hand and on the other hand the helpers of those who are trying to learn how to admit God to rule in their lives to heal sickness, purify the heart, illuminate the mind, and energize the will." ~ Dr. Albert E. Day, Methodist Pastor, Letters on the Healing Ministry, ©1964
Disclaimer
"Although healing ministry often results in restored physical health, this is not a substitute for medicine or surgery. Healing ministry makes no claim to prescribe in the arenas of psychology, psychiatry, medical procedures, and medicine, but does work closely with persons in these professions...God uses countless ways of providing good health. As a medical doctor so well said, 'God is our primary physician and all the doctors on earth are junior partners.' Combining the best spiritual care with the best medical care is highly recommended." ~ Dr. James K. Wagner, United Methodist Pastor, Healing Services, ©2007
