In this week’s Intergenerational Sunday School at Big Bethel AME Church, we explore the fascinating connection between faith, the mind, and the body through the lens of the placebo effect. Guest speaker Rev. Dr. Swayne Anthony Cofield — a board-certified family medicine physician and ordained minister — joins us to discuss what the placebo effect is, how it works, and what it reveals about the power of belief in healing. Together, we look at how science is confirming biblical truths about faith and hope, and how this convergence can inspire our daily walk with God.

This episode captures the main teaching and interview portion of our class. The lively in-person discussion that followed is something you can only experience by joining us on Sunday mornings at Big Bethel AME Church in Atlanta.
