Overview
Healing is central to the gospel: healing the relationship between God and humankind is the very essence of Christ's work in his life, death, and resurrection.
During his ministry, Jesus healed lepers, blind men, the lame, a haemorrhaging woman, the demon-possessed, and even raised the dead. Jesus involved his disciples in the work of healing; the book of Acts contains accounts of healing by Christ's followers, and the epistles of Paul discuss healing as a gift of the Spirit.
Healing is a sign of God's love, compassion, and care. While a holistic, integrated view of health emerges in medicine, the Church is also rediscovering its ministry of healing.
Healing is not just about recovering from illness: wholeness and peace are gifts from God which He offers to everyone.
In the Diocese of Carlisle, "Learning Healing Ministry" weekends are an invaluable opportunity for Christians from all denominations and all parts of Cumbria to grow in their understanding of this ministry.
