GMRI is funded 100% by individuals — not a ministry, not a church, not any outside institution. No one is paying us to reach a conclusion.

Every case report takes over 100 hours of work of our members: gathering medical records, consulting specialists, running the data, writing it up for peer review. People like you are the only thing that makes that possible.

More than a decade of tube feeding, seizures since childhood, and no confirmed diagnosis despite years of testing. Then came one prayer session — and by the next day, the patient was tolerating food by mouth again. Medical records later showed the TPN and seizure medications were discontinued, with lasting improvement.

Sometimes doctors can explain a healing. Other times, they can't.

Either way, GMRI documents it the same way: medical records, physician review, and the same standards used in any peer-reviewed case report - so the evidence can speak for itself.

Can prayer measurably ease pain and anxiety? It's not a rhetorical question — GMRI and the University of Maryland, Baltimore are running an active clinical trial to find out. https://www.annfammed.org/content/24/3/192

This is what evidence-based investigation of Christian Spiritual Healing actually looks like: real trial partners, real methodology, real data.

73% of physicians say they believe miracles occur today.

That number tends to surprise people — doctors are trained to look for the clinical explanation first. But it's real, and it's part of why GMRI exists: to actually study these claims instead of just debating them.

Before his first daughter was born, GMRI's own chair was told he likely wouldn't live to see him grow up.

"I knew I would most likely be dead within a few years." — Dr. Joshua W. Brown, on the inoperable brain tumor he was diagnosed with the night before his son's birth.

Twenty years later, he's still here — and he's written the story down in his new book, Proving a Miracle. Link in comments. 📖
