Because we view the health message as integral to the gospel we understand that prayer and practical obedience go hand in hand during times of illness. This week’s selection explores the 'prayer of faith,' highlighting how we can seek divine healing while remaining submissively aligned with God’s will and His natural laws. It is a powerful reminder that using the simple remedies Heaven has provided is not a denial of faith, but a way of cooperating with the Great Healer Himself.

We warmly invite you to join us this Sabbath at church, where we gather to behold the Creator's glory in His Word and works, finding rest and peace together in His presence.
