Hear firsthand accounts of what happened at the Asbury Outpouring. On February 8, 2023, a few Asbury University students chose to linger after a routine chapel service, responding to what they sensed God was doing. As this small gathering captured global attention, an estimated 50 thousand people were drawn to Wilmore, KY over the next 16 days.

Jesus prayed, but Jesus prayed differently. Jesus fasted, but Jesus fasted differently. He didn’t do it like the religious people of his time. He didn’t conform to conventional wisdom or predictable patterns. And yet there is so much teaching out there on prayer and fasting filled with conventional wisdom and predictable patterns, seemingly paying no attention to Jesus. He taught extensively on prayer and fasting. He actually prayed nine different prayers and we have them all written down. He lived a secret life of prayer and fasting in public—before our very eyes. In this three week course we will sit together at his feet and learn from Him in ways both theological and practical, mysterious and ordinary, faith-filled and powerful.

It’s one thing to look in the Bible for direct teaching on how to pray. It’s even better to look at the Son of God and learn from his pattern of praying. Some of the greatest insights and most meaningful prayer practices that you can apply will come directly from examining how Jesus prayed. He is our best model for prayer, as God our Father invites us to enjoy the same kind of intimacy that his beloved Son experienced during his earthly ministry—we also are the sons and daughters of God.

// About the Interview
This interview is a conversation between author and course teacher Steve Seamands, PhD, and Dan Wilt, DMin (Seedbed). The conversation explores questions that many have asked about the Follow the Healer book.
The interview itself is an excellent introductory resource for pastors, local church prayer ministry leaders, and even entire congregations on the healing ministry of Jesus into which we are all invited.
The interview marked the launch of the Follow the Healer On-Demand Video Course with Steve Seamands, which can be found at:
seedbed.com/fthcourse
// About the Follow the Healer On-Demand Course
Welcome to the Follow the Healer On-Demand Course on healing—where you can watch the lectures, journal through, and process your learnings at your own pace. Discover the healing ministry of Jesus for your heart, home, church, and city.
Get the course at seedbed.com/fthcourse
Learn the biblical and theological foundations to participate in the ongoing healing ministry of Jesus—on earth as it is heaven.
This course is a partner resource to the book Follow the Healer: Biblical and Theological Foundations for Healing Ministry (sold separately) written by Stephen Seamands. Seamands teaches this course with four decades of teaching theology and active involvement in ministry to help us understand the fundamentals of divine healing—a core dimension to Jesus’s earthly and heavenly ministries. Seamands’s writing and presentation style in the videos make this often neglected teaching accessible to all people, inviting everyone to participate.
This on-demand course is for anyone curious about the if, why, and how God heals in the world today. Recent decades have seen a renewed openness to healing in the church, and God’s Word certainly demonstrates that is central to the past, present, and future ministry of the ascended Jesus. But few teachers and practitioners have invested the time in developing a biblical theology of healing. This course by Stephen Seamands puts forward an approach that explores the heart of the matter—why God heals, the nature of healing, and a host of matters related to the mystery of pain and suffering in our fallen world.
Those who take this course will be particularly struck by the balanced perspective, which integrates what the Bible teaches in a way that challenges us to believe all that God has for us while acknowledging that healing has more dimensions than is commonly acknowledged. Participants will be challenged to wrestle through the relationship healing has to the image of God, the Kingdom of God, and other rich theological themes that emerge from Scripture.
For an enriched experienced, we encourage the purchase of the book as well as supplemental materials such as the Journal and Church Kit for deep community alignment.

// ABOUT THE STUDY
There is a simple, yet transformative, truth that fundamentally changes the way we think about and approach the ministry of praying for others to be healed. It’s the simple truth that Jesus heals– the healing ministry to which we are called is not primarily our ministry, but Christ’s. What we are called to do is to participate in his ongoing healing ministry. And as his ministry continues today through his body, the Church, he invites us to join him.
In Follow the Healer, Stephen Seamands draws upon four decades of teaching theology and active involvement in healing ministry to help us grasp the “why-to” of healing that comes before the “how-to.” He lays out the essential theological foundations for healing ministry in a way that is simple and accessible. This holistic, Wesleyan approach to healing will help traditional evangelicals more readily embrace healing ministry and lead Pentecostals and charismatics already engaged in this ministry move toward a more wholistic and discerning approach to healing.

// ABOUT THE STUDY
There is a simple, yet transformative, truth that fundamentally changes the way we think about and approach the ministry of praying for others to be healed. It’s the simple truth that Jesus heals– the healing ministry to which we are called is not primarily our ministry, but Christ’s. What we are called to do is to participate in his ongoing healing ministry. And as his ministry continues today through his body, the Church, he invites us to join him.
In Follow the Healer, Stephen Seamands draws upon four decades of teaching theology and active involvement in healing ministry to help us grasp the “why-to” of healing that comes before the “how-to.” He lays out the essential theological foundations for healing ministry in a way that is simple and accessible. This holistic, Wesleyan approach to healing will help traditional evangelicals more readily embrace healing ministry and lead Pentecostals and charismatics already engaged in this ministry move toward a more wholistic and discerning approach to healing.
// TABLE OF CONTENTS
1. Participating in the Healing Ministry of Jesus
2. Healing and the Love of Jesus
3. The Five Ways Jesus Heals
4. Healing and the Image of God
5. Jesus, Healing, and the Kingdom of God
6. Embracing the Mystery of Healing
7. By His Wounds We Are Healed
8. The Holy Spirit and Healing
// ABOUT THE AUTHOR
Stephen Seamands (Ph.D., Drew University) is emeritus professor of Christian doctrine at Asbury Theological Seminary in Wilmore, Kentucky. He continues to speak and teach on such issues as emotional healing and spiritual renewal. He is the author of Wounds that Heal, Ministry in the Image of God, and most recently, The Unseen Real.
