Only Say the Word

This volume presents 12 interactive Bible stories exploring the wealth of meaning in the terms healing and salation used by Jesus. Are they the same thing? What happened to the individuals concerned? What is the bigger message the Gospel writers are trying to get across? Focusing on key episodes in Jesus' ministry this book aims to transform our understanding of these two great Christian concepts and offer fresh insights into the meaning of Scripture for today. John Davies is the former Bishop of Shrewsbury and was previously Principal of the College of Ascension in Birmingham. He spent many years as a priest in South Africa townships where his theology was shaped.
