Review Quotes: 'Follow the Healer answers the questions you've been wondering about healing and healing ministry. Is it biblical, practical, and experiential and comes from Dr. Steve Seamands's thirty years of involvement in healing prayer ministry with wounded and broken people. This book provides a Christocentric manual for this vital priority of the Christian faith and is a must read for anyone desiring to understand and implement healing ministry from a biblical, balanced, and holistic approach. Seamands addresses our critical questions about healing and healing ministry from the perspective of a practitioner, pastor, and theologian. Follow the Healer is one of the best books I've read to both better understand the priority of healing in Jesus's ministry and our responsibility to live into this priority today.'-- MATTHEW WHITEHEAD, bishop of the Free Methodist Church, USA
