If you are a Christian and are interested in Healing, this is probably the book for you. John Wimber gives practical explanations for healing through prayer and also gives personal experience to go along and give examples to help explain. It is fairly basic, but I found that helped more than hindered. Being basic, it is still informative. Unless you are already really knowledgeable in this area. It helped me to define experiences that I have either had myself or seen happen to others. I used it

In, Power Healing, John Wimber seeks to place healing in the biblical and ongoing ministry of the church and offer a practical model for this ministry.

I read this book twice! My first reading began in the appendix section and from there I read the chapters that caught my interest the most. I realized that a cursory reading would not be enough, so I reread the book cover to cover.

This book was a bit challenging to me. I had already read a good bit of Dallas Willard but was trying to overcome the results of my own prior deep conviction that all divinely manifested power had left with the death of the last person who was directly empowered by the original apostles and Paul.
Fortunately, Wimber starts with his own early experiences and deep struggles with much the same misunderstanding.

The definitive biblical and practical book. Scholarly, full of integrity, and with a humility which is refreshing. John Wimber is the most gifted healer of my generation.

A great book on miraculous healing. The name of the book sounds sensationalist, but the book is actually very down-to-earth, informative, and scripturally based. I found it immensely helpful to my own limited understanding of this kind of ministry.
