THE HEALER IN YOU

with contributions from Tom Black, Olga Chaffee, Karl (Sandy) Sandberg, Warren Bolon

The desire to heal others is instinctive, imbedded deep within every human being. The three healers who took part in this conversation have dedicated their lives to helping others through Christian prayer, and to teaching others how to heal spiritually. Tom Black is a member of The Christian Science Board of Directors and taught the Board of Education's most recent Normal class (training teachers of Christian Science). Tom is from Detroit and currently lives in Boston. Board of Education President Karl (Sandy) Sandberg practices and teaches healing in Norwell, Massachusetts. Olga Chaffee is also a Christian Science practitioner and teacher, and is the Board of Education's vice president. She lives in San Diego.

Can anyone learn how to heal spiritually, through prayer?

Tom Black: Absolutely. Healing is not denomination-specific, or gender-specific, or age-specific. I remember when I was first in the practice, I was out of my home office one day, and in disobedience to a strict rule, one of our children answered my phone. She must have been four or five at the time. The woman who had called later told me that she had been desperately ill. My daughter told her that I was not at home, and then said, "But you know, God loves you, just the way you are, right now." That patient told me later that she was completely healed right at that moment. That's one answer to your question—healing is based on universal, scientific laws, which even a child can understand, and when understood, these spiritual truths result in healing. It's not a mystery. It's a divine Science.
