Tropes used in The X-Files/Recap/S01/E18 Miracle Man include:

• Corrupt Church - Subverted. The Harlteys' entire setup initially looks like a stereotypically hypocritical evangelist scheme, complete with blatantly encouraged monetary donations. As it turns out, not only is Samuel's ability real, his foster father is a truly faithful man who genuinely cares for him.
• Dirty Cop - Sheriff Daniels. He arranges for Samuel to be beaten to death in his cell.
• Healing Hands - Samuel Hartley.
