Abstract:
There is a growing literature on the healing effects of buildings designed for healthcare, but publications that insist on this spiritual and healing dimension in church architecture are rare. Contemporary ecclesial buildings are often rightly criticized for their cold and soulless emptiness. However, through the analysis of four emblematic case studies, this article aims to lay bare an essential dimension of architecture that is often overlooked, a multisensory and synaesthetic dimension that engages our body even before we become aware of it. Hence, this article builds upon the recurrent plea of spatial theorists, philosophers, and architects for synaesthetic space as a reaction to a dominant ocularcentric environment. Surprisingly, contemporary church architecture seems rather propitious to deploy this inherently religious dimension that is at once healing and spiritual in a new sense, which is especially needed nowadays.

Abstract:
Bringing together historical and ethnographic materials, this article analyses how members of the Cherubim and Seraphim churches of Nigeria engage with and remember the history of the church through singing hymns, which thus serves as a mode of historical consciousness. In their performance of hymns church members articulate a conception of the relationship between musical practice and spiritual healing in Cherubim and Seraphim worship that draws on a particular conception of the past in order to legitimate certain worship practices. In doing so church members are able to attract God's power and to localise it in a particular space. Because of this hymns continue to be an important spiritual healing practice for church members.

Abstract:
The article describes how primary, secondary, intergenerational and collective trauma are intertwined in our lived experience, especially in times of severe stress, such as the current coronavirus pandemic. An argument is made for personal and collective mourning, and for developing an attitude of curiosity, openness, acceptance, and love toward oneself and others who suffer traumatic stress. The foundational lifeline of trust in God is nurtured by the faith and practice of the church through the witness of Scripture, worship, prayer, song, and mutual caring.

Abstract:
This article analyses pneumatological thinking as it appears in postcolonial mission in the Evangelical Lutheran Church in Botswana (elcb), thereby engaging with challenges being posed by the new Pentecostal Churches and African Independent Churches in the region.1 These “spiritual churches” are attracting increasing numbers of worshippers with the result that the Lutheran Church is currently facing the dual challenge of both the new phenomenon and the historical colonial heritage of the missionary era. Pneumatological thinking in theelcbis examined from an epistemic point of view, and the difficulties and strengths in both the postcolonial Lutheran mission and the new religiosity are evaluated.

Abstract:
Main Street in Sarasota, Florida. A high-tech medical arts building rises from the east end, the county's historic three-story courthouse is two blocks to the west and sandwiched in between is the First Church of Christ, Scientist. A verse inscribed on the wall behind the pulpit of the church reads: “Divine Love Always Has Met and Always Will Meet Every Human Need.” This is the church where William and Christine Hermanson worshipped. It is just a few steps away from the courthouse where they were convicted of child abuse and third-degree murder for failing to provide conventional medical care for their seven-year-old daughter.This Article is about the intersection of “divine love” and “the best interests of the child.” It is about a pluralistic society where the dominant culture reveres medical science, but where a religious minority shuns and perhaps fears that same medical science. It is also about the struggle among different religious interests to define the legal rights of the citizenry.

Abstract:
ABSTRACTIn 1918, Faith Tabernacle Congregation was established in southern colonial Ghana. This Philadelphia-based church flourished in the context of colonialism, cocoa, and witchcraft, spreading rapidly after the 1918–19 influenza pandemic. In this context, several healing cults also proliferated, but Faith Tabernacle was particularly successful because the church offered its members spiritual, social, and legal advantages. The church's leadership was typically comprised of young Christian capitalist men, whose literacy and letter writing enabled the establishment of an American church without any missionaries present. By 1926, when Faith Tabernacle began its decline, at least 177 branches had formed in southern Ghana, extending into Togo and Côte d'Ivoire, with over 4,400 members.

Abstract:
Since the beginning of its existence, Christianity has been often associated with “paranormal healing”. Jesus himself, with His disciples, often performed healing as a sign of the presence of the Kingdom of God in the world, even in person who was healed. The widespread interest and belief in miracles of physical and spiritual healing, in essence, does not degrade the noble dignity of the Christian faith. On the contrary, this increasingly popular phenomenon can help the Church maintain its existence and re-articulate its relevance for the faithful. More recently, the number of these “miracle healing” groups, both outside and within the Church, is increasingly widespread and likely to obscure faith. Because of this urgency, the Church should seek ways to investigate as deeply as possible the nature of this healing, especially in order to prevent people from being astray. Sejak awal keberadaannya, agama Kristen sering dikaitkan dengan “penyembuhan paranormal”. Yesus sendiri, dengan murid-murid-Nya, sering melakukan penyembuhan sebagai tanda kehadiran Kerajaan Allah di dunia, banyak orang yang disembuhkan. Pada hakekatnya, kepentingan dan keyakinan yang meluas tentang mukjizat penyembuhan fisik dan spiritual, tidak menurunkan martabat mulia iman Kristen. Sebaliknya, fenomena yang semakin populer ini dapat membantu Gereja mempertahankan eksistensinya dan mengartikulasikan relevansinya bagi umat beriman. Baru-baru ini, banyak yang mengalami “mukjizat penyembuhan”, baik di luar maupun di dalam Gereja, semakin meluas dan cenderung mengaburkan iman. Atas situasi ini, Gereja harus mencari cara untuk menyelidiki lebih mendalam hakekat mukjizat penyembuhan , terutama untuk mencegah orang dari kesesatan.

Abstract:
Reports the results of a questionnaire survey designed to discover relationships of the emotional responses of cancer patients and their spouses to variables of age, gender, and church attendance. Claims that contemporary high-tech health care developments tend toward a process of despiritualization, and that one-on-one spiritual relationships seldom occur with physicians, nurses, or pastors. Notes that pastors need to assume a greater role as spiritual leaders, encouraging all members of the health care team to contribute to healing the whole person.

Full text
Abstract:
The Japanese “new religions” ( Shin Shūkyō) active in Kinshasa (DR Congo) nearly all perform healing through the channeling of invisible divine light. In the case of Sekai Kyūseikyō (Church of World Messianity), the light of Johrei cannot be visually apprehended, but is worn as an invisible aura on the practitioner’s body. This article discusses the trans-cultural resonances between Japan and Central Africa regarding the ontology of spiritual force, regimes of subjectivity, and the gradual embodiment of Johrei divine light as a protection against (suspicions of) witchcraft. Meanwhile, I argue that religious multiplicity in urban Africa encourages cultural reflexivity about concepts of health and healing, self-responsibility, and Pentecostal suspicion-mongering of occult sciences. Thus, Johrei divine light not only feeds into a longstanding local tradition of spiritual healing; within the religiously multiple city, it is also a discursive space for, and an experience and performance of, emic critique.

Abstract:
This chapter describes how in the first years of the 1130s, Saint Bernard of Clairvaux became a European figure, involving himself in the ecclesiastical and secular politics of his time and influencing them to a greater or lesser degree. He dedicated himself to solving the perilous situation in which there were two popes at the same time in the Western Church. By 1138, he had been to Italy a number of times and had traversed what today is France. These journeys must have been grueling for an individual with gastric problems and with a firm commitment to the prayer life of the monastery. At the same time as Bernard missed the daily office, he was separated from the brothers he loved in Clairvaux, both his brothers in the flesh and his spiritual brethren, who looked to him for spiritual guidance and inspiration.

Abstract:
Her continued search for miracles leads the author to the Flores family. Gilbert, the patriarch, is famous in Robstown, Texas, for spotting la Virgen de Guadalupe beneath the pulpit of St. Anthony’s Catholic Church after its carpet got ripped out for replacement. The author accepts Gilbert’s invitation to attend a “healing mass,” wherein parishioners are tapped on the forehead with a golden monstrance by a priest and then fall in rapture on the floor. After hours of debating, she finally decides to partake in the ritual, too, as part of her own spiritual journey as a lapsed (yet hopeful) Catholic.

Abstract:
MANY READERS WHO first encounter the book of Psalms in its entirety—and not just isolated psalms in worship—are unprepared for the predominance of lament. Although the book as a whole bears the Hebrew title Tehilim, “Praisings,” the first half is dominated by cries of pain and appeals for deliverance. Many of these psalms are not carefully modulated expressions of agony and outrage, and for that reason, they tend not to be part of the functional theology of either church or synagogue. This is a sad irony, since the angry psalms are among those that may be most useful for pastoral ministry, as well as for spiritual growth and healing. As Calvin observed, the emotional honesty of psalms is a protection against and remedy for “that most baneful infection, hypocrisy”;...
