September 22 | Healing Through Community | Hope Month | Milton Keys

A final component of God’s healing work to consider is that so much of it happens through the community of faith. Through prayer, service, and tangible support, God works in and through us to bring healing to others’ minds, bodies, and spirits. This is a part of what it means to be Christ’s representatives in a broken world! In this message we will explore our responsibility to use our gifts, our presence, and our resources to help bring healing to others as representatives of Christ. We’ll be reminded of the importance of listening and having compassion for the healing others desire instead of coming in with all the answers and healing what we think is broken (e.g. My Body is Not a Prayer Request). Finally, we will remember the importance of trusting our community to journey through pain together and not try to weather these challenging storms alone.
