Having experienced hearing loss from an early age, Gerd Hoppe learned to live partially deaf for nearly three decades. Even after he received instant relief from chronic back pain while getting prayer at Charis Bible College, Gerd did not have the same results in his hearing, and believed he was still partially deaf. It would finally take his wife Deborah getting fed up with having to repeat herself over and over again, to convince Gerd to go to the ear doctor and get the aid he needed. Little did they know, the healing was already done.
