HEALING THE WHOLE PERSON


The website is under a bit of construction. I’m building out this page as time and resources allow. Please feel free to explore my links, blog, newsletter, and social media pages! All can be found in the top navigation bar.

ARE YOU READY TO HEAL?

A decade ago, my “unattainable dream” was simply to sleep, move, and eat without agony. My vision of heaven was as a giant exit button rather than a joyful union. My dreams were little more than a desperate cry for release.

Slowly… God helped me relax my clenched fists and open my eyes. I had been in a defensive posture for so long that dreaming again was as terrifying as standing on the precipice of an ocean cliff…

But that terror eventually gave way to relief as the healing door was opened.

The process was not easy or quick, But I have been able to embrace a return of dreams, a restoration of youthfulness, and a renewed longing for Christ. My physical healing was a catalyst to every other kind of healing. I didn’t know it was impossible. I was afraid to begin. Too tired to try. And yet…

Here I am.

I invite you to crawl to the door of possibility where you can learn to dream again. What is your dream? It’s okay if it’s small. I wanted to be able to eat a meal and get out of bed. Write it down. Say it out loud. Surrender it to God … and let Him lead you.

It’s a privilege to walk and pray with you. Let’s do this. One step at a time.


MY STORY

I am here to testify to the healing power of Jesus Christ. I write as an act of praise and thanksgiving and to help build a bridge between the cultural misunderstanding of the natural world and God’s plan for our healing.

The Sunshine Principle (explained more fully in my book) is simply this:

The greatest potential for healing occurs when we align our behaviors with God’s natural, biological, and spiritual laws.


Following that principle, I have discovered a level of healing not possible through pharmaceutical options, and I’m thriving in spite of degenerative disease and a collection of autoimmune diagnosis. It has been a hard slow crawl back to functional health from a place of pain and grief. I wouldn’t choose it but I also recognize the gift…

That God has allowed me to become small in my weakness so that He might rise up in the heart of my life as a healing fire.

The photo below is of the same person (me) one year apart. In the first, I was frightened and very ill. Unable to take medications that my body couldn’t detox properly, I was forced to look to alternatives…

What is my body designed to eat? How is it designed to move? To breathe? How is it designed to heal?

Sometimes God allows us to break wide open, guts spilled all over the floor… so that He can piece us back together in right order. That’s what He has done for me. I will die someday of something and I look forward to my eternal birthday. Until then, I have an obligation to care for this vessel. St. Paul called the body a Temple of the Holy Spirit and I will honor God through reasonable care of the gift…

So that I can rise up and serve until it’s my time to go.

There’ll be no New Age or occult influence on this page. I lived in that world and know it only brings disorientation and sorrow. Not worth it. Everything we need is accessible without it.

Thanks be to God.
