At Soul survivor in the summer we were taught the song Healer, We all heard Mikes storyand many were touched by his story, but i saw the lyrics of tat song touch peoples hearts too
A few weeks late we learnt the Story of Mike, of the tragic wed of lies he had spun and got caught in
Now i still love the song, and i believe it is an amazing song.
We have sung it one of my youth churches and everyone agreed its right to not budge the song
However at my main church we wish to play it at out youth group and have done once before, when i bought this up with the worship leader of the main church he told me no we weren't do it but i feel strongly that i wish to play it and i feel that God still wants to move people thorugh this song
Any advice on how i go about this
Thanx

At Hillsong, Healer has not been sung since the shock news. It was removed from the This is Our God DVD but remains on the CD. I also think it is a good song. Hopefully time will heal the negativity towards the song.

I think the song is really good as well. God doesn't stop using us if we mess up. If he did, he wouldn't have anyone to work with. In fact he says that 'the gifts are irrevocable'. I guess just keep talking to your worship leader about grace and how good the song is in itself, and it's a shame that people arn't able to be blessed by it because of the writers failings. I mean do we stop listening to Terry Macalmon or Geoff Bullock because they fell to adultery?
Agree with you bluelime2 you can still get inspiration from things even if people have messed up. Sometime we think of Worship songs as too holy it is not the song but the heart of the person singing it. Although with this song it may have to be explained first, else people will be singing thinking do they know about the guy who wrote this.
