Faith Healing & Religious Harm

What happens when your faith does NOT make you well as "promised" in the Bible? Jill and Paula discuss the ways physical health issues can be treated harmfully in the church, with side journeys into the Word of Faith movement, the role of prayer in healing, and some difficult personal examples from both hosts. 

In the discussion of the Word of Faith movement and televangelists, we mention a Last Week Tonight with John Oliver episode. You can check out a clip from that episode here.
