Nothing can or ever will erase that basic identity,” begins Joanna Adams. In her sermon called, “The Ego and the Miracle,” she preaches from 2 Kings 5:1-14, the story of Naaman’s healing. Elisha’s messenger tells Naaman to go wash in the Jordan seven times and he will be cleansed of his leprosy. Naaman gets angry and goes away.
