Résumé: | "Curing" and "healing" are terms frequently used in health care, yet what is actually meant by each? This article asserts that curing pertains exclusively to the corporal while healing is multidimensional—embracing the whole person. Drawing insights from the gospel healing story of the Haemorrhoissa, better known as the bleeding woman or the woman with the issue of blood(Mt 9:20-22; Mk 5:24-34; Lk 8:42-48), this article demonstrates that imitating Christ and partaking in His ministerial mission of healing the sick, demands assisting in the healing process as it expresses authentic Christian love through the patient care provided. |
