The incredible history of God using people in His Church!!
Reviewed in Canada on October 22, 2021
10 years ago I was diagnosed with a terminal blood cancer diagnosis and it was people like Ed and Janice Hird that anointed me with oil and prayed healing in Jesus name over me. To the Glory of God I am now a marathon runner. Reading these stories of incredible miracles it gives me courage that God did heal, can heal and still will today! Well done Dr. Hird on this book! It is a page turner… —Denise
