0:00.0	Hi, this is Pastor Joel Webbin with Right Response Ministries, and you're listening to another episode of Theology Applied.
0:06.7	In this episode, I was privileged to have as a special guest, Doreen Virtue.
0:11.5	Today's topic is something that she's been dealing with a lot on her channel, with her ministry, which is Reiki Healing.
0:18.7	And when I say dealing with a lot, what I mean is that she's been getting a lot of flack.
0:22.4	Now, she's gotten a lot of encouragement as well, but she's gotten a lot of pushback. And ironically, a lot of it has come from those who profess to be followers of Christ.
0:32.1	They say Reiki healing or energy healing is really nothing different than the biblical principle of laying on of hands.
0:40.0	Well, both Doreen and I would beg to differ.
