Highlights from our recent Lecture with Janet Hegarty, C.S.B

"How to Make Change for the Better"

April 8, 2018

Note: A replay of this lecture is available online at www.prayerthatheals.org.

To make substantive changes in our lives and in the world, we have to go deeper - to discover our foundation, our real source, the one, all-good God.

Janet Hegarty has experienced the kind of change she talks about. More than a superficial change in attitude, Hegarty has felt the life changing power of God's goodness, and complete physical healing that results from understanding our oneness with God.
