| 520 | |a Healing is one of the distinctive features of the Pentecostal movement. In Pentecostal missiology healing is fundamental and is geared towards the transformation of the human person and society. Healing thus encompasses both physical and spiritual ailments. It also concerns the healing of unjust structures of society – inequality, corruption, bad governance, and so on. In this article I examine some of the plausible factors that make persons living with chronic illnesses go to prayer camps in search of solutions for their illnesses. The article highlights how prayer camps in Ghana help those living with chronic illnesses negotiate their sense of self and identity in the midst of persistent illness. It argues that in a situation where healthcare systems cannot provide a cure for an illness, people identify with and rely on religious institutions and their resources such as those the prayer camps produce for support, meaning, and enhancement. | ||
| 520 | |a 五旬节运动的一个显著特点是治愈。在五旬节宣教学中，治愈是基础性的，旨在转变人类和社会。因此，治愈涵盖了身体和精神的疾病。治愈还涉及到社会不公正结构的治愈?如不平等、腐败、恶劣的治理等。在本文中，我考察了使患有慢性疾病的人去祈祷营地寻找解决方案的一些可能的因素。本文重点介绍了加纳的祈祷营地如何帮助患有慢性疾病的人在持续疾病的困扰中协调自我感知和身份认同。文章认为，在医疗系统无法提供疾病治愈的情况下，人们会倾向于与宗教机构以及它们提供的资源产生共鸣和依赖，比如那些由祈祷营地提供的支持、意义和增强。— | ||
