Ifw e respond appro­ priately, a healing response can o c­ cur. T hat w as exactly w hat T hom as Jackson o f T ennessee had to do. Since 17 years old, Jackson w as af­ flicted w ith painful arthritis that kept him from starting a career in p ro fes­ sional basketball. H e found his an ­ sw ers in the B ible. A fter putting healthful, Biblical principles into prac­ tice, his arthritic condition im proved greatly. A s a service to others, Jackson and his w ife L aV em e lecture nation­ ally as health educators - teaching others to heal their body, m in d and spirit. T hrough their church in T en­ nessee, they run a health retreat pro­ gram on 75-acres o f land th a t’s used to grow organic foods. Just recently, the Jacksons w ere in northeast P o rtlan d atth e S toneT ow er C hurch,located at 3010N .E. Holladay to present a w eek-long, free sem inar on natural healing.
