In His Footsteps;Rediscovering Kingdom Healing



A DVD BASED COURSE FROM THE ORDER OF JACOB'S WELL


The original church bore witness to the message of Christ, and God bore witness with them. God involved himself in the communication of the message of Christ by validating it to the hearers with the kingdom's signs and wonders. This course shows how they proclaimed the good news and saw hundreds healed, with comparative simplicity and ease. Rediscover, through this course, how to share in their extraordinary and effective healing ministry, the one they learned from the Apostles and from Christ himself.

WHAT DO OTHERS SAY ABOUT THE COURSE? "I am so enthused about the 'In His Footsteps' course and the results that I have seen with my own eyes. I am excited at the thought of learning more!" Ven. Larry Mitchell, North American Warden, International Order of St Luke the Physician "The teaching in this DVD Course is down-to-earth, challenging and grace-filled, helping us more than any other resource I know to step into the river of God's healing grace. " Revd Trevor Hudson, Methodist Minister (South Africa), international Bible teacher "I am happy to commend this Course and the insights it provides into the ministry of healing. Jesus was himself a healer, who came to bring healing for the whole creation. He commanded his followers to 'Heal the sick' because healing is one of the signs of God's Kingdom being established in our midst. This Course comes out of years of experience, thoughtfulness and openness to God's word; above all it is practical, clearly presented and Kingdom-focussed." Rt Revd Dominic Walker, Bishop of Monmouth

COURSE CONTENT Learn to explore the scriptures and discover that Christ's healing has a CORPORATE nature and that it requires a degree of EXPECTANCY and PERSISTENCE and is to be conducted with great HUMILITY under the AUTHORITY of Christ and his kingdom, which comes to us through our SONSHIP. Learn how to use these six keywords (CEPHAS) to rediscover from Scripture Christ's intention for the witness of the local church and the Healing Ministry to the sick and the injured.

WHAT WILL IT DO FOR US? Enhances general expectation of God through the words and works of Jesus Christ. Helps churches and church groups to receive healing in their lives, corporately and individually. Helps us all to take firm hold of the loving and restoring will of the Father and the reality of the kingdom of God. Explores and encourages any latent calling to Christ's Healing Ministry. Further equips those already ministering God's healing grace to the sick and the injured. Helps us to realise the modern-day healing dynamics of the kingdom of God. Teaches us to fully proclaim the kingdom in church and community and see God's healing grace received by the sick and injured, in a fuller New Testament experience.

HOW LONG IS THE COURSE? The Course consists of 11 DVD sessions, each divided into 1-3 steps. Each Step consists of a DVD (approx. 15-20 mins), with optional prayers for the start and a discussion topic at the end (see Leader's Guide and Course Member's Notebooks available from our resources page . An Open Day is set aside during the course for Bible study and practical work (see Leader's Guide). Organise your In His Footsteps course over any number of sessions, between 12 and 28, to suit time available and local circumstances.

WHO CAN RUN IT?
