Is healing dependent upon me having enough faith?
I have dealt with many of the things that you may feel you are dealing with right now, too – like, why did God let this happen? Will God heal me? Is healing a matter of having enough faith and believing it’s true?...
...I had to realize that because of my relationship with Christ, healing was not based on me having enough faith or asking God in just the right way to heal me. No matter what happened, God loves me, has a plan for me, and is in control.

Endorsements and Book Reviews of Eternal Perspectives
This is the “ultimate resource” on Heaven outside the Bible. I think it would be especially useful for pastors and writers. However, it’s also a fun book to read whether you select topics of interest or read from cover-to-cover. This quote from J.C. Ryle summarizes it well.
“Before we go to our eternal home we should try to become acquainted with it.” As always, with this author, his book is a 12+ on a scale of 1-10.

Do you have any advice for Christian conduct as a guideline for those in ministry?
Question from a reader:
Do you have any advice for Christian conduct as a guideline for those in ministry?
Answer from Randy Alcorn:
What you don’t want in Christian ministry is check-off-the-boxes Christian morality in which spirituality is measured in terms of a list of do’s and don’ts. This has happened in countless churches and Christian ministries, so any effort to avoid and resist it is worthwhile.

Should I feel guilty for working hard to support my family?
Question from a reader:
It feels like cruel and unnecessary manipulation when you say that “One of the great ironies of our culture is that fathers spend more time making money and less time with their children.” I spend a lot of time with my kids, but am I to feel guilty for working hard to support my family?
Answer from Randy Alcorn:
Working hard and making money to care for your family is a great and biblical thing. I did it and I'm glad you are too. I also spent a lot of time with my kids. But of course, that's NOT what I'm talking about.
