Costi Hinn | Is It Always God’s Will to Heal?, 157

Costi Hinn joins Amber to discuss healing and if it is always God’s will to heal, along with his journey out of the prosperity gospel movement. 

Questions Discussed During Is It Always God’s Will to Heal:

1. (5:13) Take our listeners back to your childhood.  What was life like for you growing up as the nephew of one of the most prominent leaders of the prosperity gospel movement?
2.  (10:48) How would you describe your walk with Jesus during your youth?
3. (15:49) What took place in your life that began to expose some of the faulty theology behind the prosperity gospel movement?
4. (33:44) With that said, your perspective on Jesus as healer has not only changed, but has been tested.  Your young son was diagnosed with cancer and in More Than A Healer, you write, “Now, we’re going to live what we’ve been preaching…for years we’d been telling others that God is still good, even when things in life are not.” Walk us through that experience and how it further confirmed and strengthened your faith in Jesus as healer and SO MUCH MORE.
5. (42:32) In this book, you walk through 2  REALLY tough questions presenting truths in response, “Why do people get sick?” and “Is it always God’s will to heal right now?” Flesh that out for us a bit.
6. (51:52) “God’s Peace is A Fact, Not A Feeling” Why is it so important to know, believe, and trust that statement?
7. (58:45) “God Works All Things For Good.” While this statement is true and Biblical ,using it as a mantra to “encourage” people who are suffering has led to great pain.  What is a different approach?
