    Is prayer minsitry / healing / the laying on of hands only for "Big Successful Evangelical Mega Churches" - or is it for small sacramental churches like the ones we come from? This talk was the introductory talk at an On Fire Prayer Ministry Training Day

    I don’t know if any of you have ever seen the Steve Martin Film “leap of Faith” from the early 90s. It perhaps perpetuates the stereotypes that many non-christians would have about the Christian healing ministry. Steve Martin portrays a travelling pentecostal faith healer called ...read more

     | 3,529 views

    I’m calling God’s people in my care to develop a faith in Jesus that goes beyond mental assent (belief) to include emotional reliance (trust) and active obedience (loyalty).

    Introduction: The Bible tells us that "without faith it is impossible to please God" (Hebrews 11:6). The Bible says, "The righteous will live by faith" (Romans 1:17). That makes me think that faith is very important -- even vital. But what is faith? The Bible commands us to "stand firm in the ...read more
