Healer Song – part 2: Press Statement

Hi friends,

Greetings from San Diego and a sunny morning here! Just went walking down by the SD harbor downtown. I grabbed an iced Americano and walked past the bay with the boats lined up. One of the marine corps were doing morning training, so they ran past shouting their in-unison training cries.. I’m so glad I’m not a marine! I have SO much respect for those folks and their hardcore training!

Saw this update online about the writer of the song Healer, and seeming as it got so much discussion here on my blog I thought I’d post it for you to see. Sounds like Mike G truly needs our prayers and compassion, as do his family at this tough time.

Look for another blog real soon -this one is just a quick hello, and giving you the Healer update asI thought you’d like to be in the loop as we discussed the song here…

Here’s the link:

“Healer” Song

Many of us love the song “Healer” featured on the Hillsong album.

I was sad to hear that the writer who claimed to have a life threatening illness, in fact was totally healthy.

But the song is still great, regardless of his lack of honesty.

What do you think about all this?

If you are a worship leader, would you still use the song at church?

If you attend a church, would you like this song to continue being sung, or would it be distracting/tainted by this news?
