The Healing Work of Jesus is an investigative memoir written from inside pain, not above it. Don Myers-veteran, crisis chaplain, and survivor of a traumatic brain injury and twelve spinal surgeries-sets out to answer the question that kept him awake at 3 A.M.: Does Jesus still heal, and what does that healing actually look like for real people with real wounds?
This book blends Scripture, trauma science, discipleship, and lived experience into a single, honest narrative. Don writes as a reluctant investigator who needed to know whether the promises he grew up believing could survive the hardest version of the question. He approaches healing not as a slogan or a performance, but as a covenant identity of God revealed from Exodus to the Gospels and embodied in Jesus' ministry.
Part One traces the healing promise through the Old Testament and into the life of Jesus, showing that healing is not a New Testament novelty but a core expression of God's character. Don examines the healing accounts of Jesus as evidence of His identity, not as isolated miracle stories, and shows how Jesus meets people where their faith actually is-not where it should be.
Part Two investigates what Jesus heals: the body, the mind, the past, and the spirit. Don integrates neuroscience with Scripture, exploring chronic pain, TBI, PTSD, shame, trauma, dreams, visions, and spiritual oppression. He confronts the reality that not everyone is healed the way they ask to be, and reframes endurance as its own kind of miracle-one that often matters more than instant relief.
Part Three turns from investigation to practice, offering a grounded model for healing ministry built for veterans, first responders, and men in crisis. Don outlines a clear process for listening, discerning, praying, and guiding people after prayer. He emphasizes safety, honesty, and the ministry of presence-healing that happens without pressure, hype, or denial.
Part Four offers deeper reflections on gratitude, emotional naming, forgiveness, trust, and the slow, layered work of God in the human soul. Don writes with pastoral clarity and masculine vulnerability, giving readers permission to walk with a cane and still believe God heals.
This book is not a collection of miracle stories. It is a guide for people who have prayed for healing while still waiting for their own. It is for the veteran who cannot sleep, the first responder who carries invisible wounds, the believer who left church but not Jesus, and anyone who needs a Savior who meets them in the middle of their pain.
The Healing Work of Jesus invites readers to keep walking, keep praying, and keep trusting the God who heals in ways deeper, truer, and more enduring than they ever expected.
