Be Healed
Description
"Somewhere deep inside each one of us is a burning desire to finally become the person God created us to be."
Do you suffer from spiritual or emotional wounds that are keeping you from reaching that goal? The bestselling book Be Healed is based on retired Catholic therapist Bob Schuchts's popular program for spiritual, emotional, and physical healing. Incorporating elements of charismatic spirituality and steeped in scripture and the wisdom of the Church, this book offers hope in the healing power of God through the Holy Spirit and the sacraments.
Schuchts, founder of the John Paul II Healing Center, sensitively shares his own journey of healing after enduring a series of betrayals in high school--his father's infidelity, his parents' divorce, his older brother's drug addiction--and his subsequent periods of struggle with God and faith.
Be Healed includes helpful tools such as charts, tables, lists, reflection questions, and personal challenges to guide you on your journey of healing. Schuchts's trusted process for finding inner peace and healing is boldly Christ-centered, maintaining focus on the person of Jesus as "the life-giving and ever-present physician of our souls." Schuchts will help you recognize your brokenness and find your hope and healing in the risen Christ.
