The Healing Stories of Jesus: Signs of the New Creation

This Bible study, part of our popular Keys to the Bible series, will examine six of the Gospel stories in which Jesus healed those suffering from a variety of physical or spiritual afflictions. While healings demonstrate the love and compassion that Jesus has for each one of us, they are also a sign of the new creation he came to inaugurate—an announcement that the kingdom of God is at hand. Even today, supernatural healing gifts are meant to be a sign that God is present and active in the world today. This study will help you view Jesus' healings in a new way and encourage you to pray for healing for yourself, your family, and those you encounter each day. Each session of this Bible study features:

   • the Scripture text to be studied and insightful commentary.
  • questions for reflection, discussion, and personal application. 
  • "In the Spotlight" sections featuring witnesses of modern-day healings.
