Why Are You Tolerating Sickness | Neresa Jones

In this powerful episode of You’re the Cure, Dr. Ben sits down with Neresa Jones, author of Why Are You Tolerating Sickness?, for a deeply honest conversation about healing, identity, and the nature of God. Drawing from her own story of severe illness, chronic pain, and hopelessness, Neresa shares how everything began to shift when she encountered a deeper revelation of God’s heart and her identity in Christ. Together, she and Dr. Ben explore questions many believers wrestle with: Does God desire for us to be well? Is healing part of what Jesus paid for? What role do faith, righteousness, and renewing the mind play in walking in wholeness? This conversation is not about striving, performance, or condemnation. It is about position, truth, and discovering what it means to live from your identity rather than fight for it. If you have ever wrestled with sickness, confusion, disappointment, or questions about God’s will, this episode offers hope, encouragement, and a fresh perspective rooted in Scripture. In this episode, they discuss: Neresa’s personal healing journey The connection between healing and identity Why God’s will matters in the area of health Faith, righteousness, and freedom from condemnation The difference between striving and abiding Stewardship of the body, soul, and spirit This is a bold and grace-filled conversation that invites listeners to rethink what they believe about healing and to seek a deeper understanding of who God is and who they are in Him.
