About Churches that Heal

Churches That Heal is the culmination of Dr. Cloud’s life’s work and the next step in his desire to ensure the local church is the place where the hurting can find healing. His goal is to see the church as the place hurting people run to, not away from.

Many of us struggle with anxiety, loneliness, and feelings of inadequacy. We understand that God created us in His image, yet we are plagued with questions such as:

  • HOW CAN WE BE LOVING WHEN WE FEEL BURNT OUT?
  • HOW CAN WE RESOLVE LONG STANDING EMOTIONAL AND RELATIONAL PROBLEMS?
  • HOW CAN WE BE FREE WHEN WE STRUGGLE WITH ADDICTION?
  • HOW CAN WE ENJOY THE COMPLETE HEALING GOD PROMISES?

We believe the church should be a safe place of healing for the world. Churches that Heal will help you and your congregation recover from the wounds of the past and grow more into the image of God.

Dr. Cloud has taken decades of knowledge and research and boiled it down into this simple, easy-to-use, digital resource to equip the local church with a Biblical plan of healing.
