Purchase options and add-ons

In this helpful book, Zach Thomas shows how clergy, friends, and congregations can reclaim the ancient practice of healing touch. He presents biblical principles that encourage wholesome behavior and protect against unhealthy touch. He provides a model for reflecting on touch in pastoral care, offers case studies that demonstrate how and when clients should be referred to body-work therapists, and provides congregations with guidance in designing appropriate healing services that include the laying on of hands.

4.0 out of 5 stars Healing that works

Praying for the sick has been forgotten in churches today. IT is time that we go back to N.T. teachings and begin to practice natural healing of the sick through the laying on of hands.

Thus far I will say this is a Good Read; however, the problem goes beyond the pages to applying new insights!.

5.0 out of 5 stars Open my eyes!

This book opens an entire new window for me. The discussion of "power touch" and "no tough" provides an explanation of the recent sexual abuse of children by clergy! I never looked at this problem from this viewpoint. We need to restore "good touch" to our liturgy!
