]]> Many believers hesitate before praying for healing because they're waiting for another answer from God. But what if Jesus already revealed the Father's heart? In this episode, we look at Lazarus' resurrection, the authority Jesus gave His followers, and why waiting for another "yes" may be the very thing keeping us from obeying. 8684db1d-377b-4268-8856-8831fc5aafce Fri, 26 Jun 2026 06:34:32 +0000 Addison Collingsworth 0 false https://biggerthanme.org/p/the-question-jesus-never-had-to-ask full 18 Many believers hesitate before praying for healing because they're waiting for another answer from God.

]]> Aaron's eyesight became worse immediately after prayer. For many believers, that's the moment doubt takes over. We assume the outcome is settled and start questioning everything. However the next morning Aaron woke up seeing clearly. In this episode, Addison explores why facts don't make up the whole truth, how faith refuses to judge by appearances, and why some of the most important moments in healing happen after we've stopped striving and started trusting. fb5e52ec-26cf-412f-8a7c-5e18ae55fc30 Fri, 05 Jun 2026 07:40:12 +0000 Addison Collingsworth 0 false https://biggerthanme.org/p/the-danger-in-treating-facts-as-truth-during-healing full 15 Aaron's eyesight became worse immediately after prayer.

]]> What happens when disappointment becomes the lens through which we view prayer? In this episode, Addison shares a simple moment while sick at home that exposed a subtle habit many believers develop without realizing it: keeping score. Over time, recent outcomes can become the source of our confidence—or our discouragement. We begin measuring whether we should pray based on what happened last time rather than on what Jesus has already accomplished. 18d4b14b-641f-4ed9-9254-868422faa63b Fri, 29 May 2026 04:40:00 +0000 Addison Collingsworth 311 false https://biggerthanme.org/p/stop-keeping-score full 14 What happens when disappointment becomes the lens through which we view prayer?

]]> After praying for a man who suddenly died following surgery, I was left wrestling with a question many believers quietly face: What do you do when you don’t have an answer?

]]> Many Christians slowly drift from trusting Jesus to trusting phrasing, formulas, and “getting it right.” In this episode of Bigger Than Me, Addison unpacks how a simple parking lot realization exposed a subtle superstition hiding underneath healing prayer: the belief that authority comes from saying the correct words.
