Are you a victim of Spiritual Abuse?Are you discouraged from questioning the decisions or teachings church leaders make?If you do little or no volunteer work for the church, do you feel like a second-class Christian?Does your pastor insist on being addressed by a title such as "Dr." or "Pastor"?Do you hear many broad, vague appeals to "surrender fully," "yield completely" or "lay it all on the altar"?Are public reports about various ministry activities sometimes exaggerated?Do church members feel safe talking only about past victories, not present struggles?If you answered yes to any of these questions, you may be a victim of spiritual abuse. Many of us have gone through bad church experiences that have left us feeling like failures. Blaming ourselves, we asked for God's forgiveness, but felt distant from the church and sometimes from God too. Often, however, the fault is not ours but that of Christian leaders who abuse spiritually. How can we recognize the signs of spiritual abuse? What can we do to gain healing from the wounds we have experienced? With clarity and refreshing honesty, Ken Blue answers these questions and offers hope and healing to the victims of spiritual abuse. In addition he shows Christian leaders how to avoid abusive patterns and instead offer Christ's gospel of grace to every casualty of bad church experiences.

Have you ever prayed for a sick friend?Does God heal today? If so, why are so many people in pain around us? We have all heard stories of miraculous healings. But can we believe them? Why are some people healed and some not? Does God give ordinary Christians the authority to heal?As Ken Blue explores these questions he found plenty of answers, but none that satisified him. He wanted answers that were true to Scripture and true to a loving and just God. His search into the Bible and into the ministry of healing has produced a rich and very human book.Here is a book for everyone who has ever prayed for a sick friend.
