FAQ Category: Receiver

We are often asked why RTF charges for ministry. The Healing House Network ministers are highly trained, professional ministers.  Our ministers are equipped and empowered.  They have completed a rigorous course of study including numerous hours of oversight with observation by an RTF Trainers.  When we release our ministers, as a part members of the Healing House Network, we are confident that they are competent and proficient in the RTF Integrated Approach of to ministry and they are led by the Holy Spirit throughout the ministry.  Most of our Healing House ministers consider the RTF ministry their primary calling.  They have laid down other employment to be able to focus on ministering to the needs of the hurting.  When the Lord initially began RTF, he impressed upon founders Chester and Betsy Kylstra, the founders that “the workman is worthy of his hire.” and that the people should be “invested in their own healing”. Investing in your own ministry is a faith activator. When you value something you’re willing to make an investment in it. You are paying for the expertise of the ministry team to “set the table” for you to have an encounter with the Healer.  In 2 Samuel 24:24, there is a principle where David insists on paying for his sacrifice to the Lord.  When you sow into your own life, you will reap in your life.  Your ministry team will be investing in your healing.  They spend a number of hours preparing before the first session and between each of your sessions.  Their investment in your healing is significant.  The Lord directed the founders of RTF to have people pay so they are invested in their own healing. Investing in your own ministry is a faith activator.
