Faith and the Halfway House of Naaman
The piece reflects on soldiers faith and healing mirroring Naaman’s leprosy cure by washing in the Jordan after belief in a prophet. Elisha avoids harsh rebuke, blessing Naaman’s partial faith in Rimmon while guiding toward true faith. God works through doctors as well as miracles, and faith may stay in a halfway house yet still be real.
