Miracles and Healings

We explore the reality of miracles and healing today and share why we believe all the gifts of the Holy Spirit are still active and available today. From N.T. Wright’s theology of miracles as “appetizers” to true healing stories at Keystone, we discuss the now-and-not-yet tension of living in a broken world while anticipating God’s miraculous power. We talk about demonic oppression, sin’s impact on sickness, and how to pray boldly for healing.

QUESTIONS:

1. Do you truly believe miracles can happen today, or have you unintentionally adopted a view that limits what God can do?
2. When was the last time you prayed boldly for someone’s healing instead of couching your prayer in safe, comfortable language?
3. How can you see physical healing as a signpost pointing to the ultimate spiritual healing we all need through Jesus?
