Faith that Heals w/ Fr. Mathias Thelen

JAKE KHYM & BOB SCHUCHTS
About this episode

This week, Jake and Bob are joined by Fr. Mathias Thelen, Co-Founder and President of Encounter Ministries and Pastor of St. Patrick Catholic Parish in Brighton. Fr. Mathias shares his story of experiencing the transformative power of the Holy Spirit, encountering an advisor who fathered him in Seminary, and experiences of grace that shaped his ministry. Throughout his journey of faith, Fr. Mathias shares stories of physical and emotional healing, explains what charisms are, and why a relationship with God is the most important part of each of our lives.

 

Key Points:

  • To step out in faith is to step out in trust
  • Charisms are gifts of grace given by the Holy Spirit at our Baptism
  • Sharing real life testimonies of healing inspire others to also reach out in faith
  • In healing ministries, remember God’s grace is at work. We cannot produce it ourselves
