Founding the Roberta Winter Institute

In case you haven't noticed, things are looking pretty good over here at robertawinterinstitute.org. Along with our sharp new website, we have added some fantastic content and pages detailing the ins-and-outs of the institute. 

The Birth of an Institute follows our timeline from the Winters' early days among the Mam people in Guatemala, through Roberta's cancer diagnosis, which led Ralph to the pivotal shift in understanding upon which the RWI is founded. Ironically and tragically, not long after establishing the RWI, Ralph was diagnosed with the same disease that took Roberta’s life (multiple myeloma).

Through the establishment of the RWI, he was able to disseminate "some of the most interesting and far-sighted ideas of his career," before being taken out by the very “works of the devil” he was seeking to destroy. But the vision lives on, read the full story of the passing of the torch and RWI's continuing endeavours to ignite in the body of Christ a theological shift regarding disease and its eradication.
