Matthew Linn

The chief virtue of the Linn's book is that they write in away that it accessible and offer lots of practical advice. This book cataloges 8 simple ways to pray for healing, most of which are talked about more in depth in their other publications. Some things in here are good, much of the prayer exercises are engaging and can be used fruitfully, but at other times the Linn's approach is too flighty and pop-psychological for me.

It is amazing to think that babies in the womb are so aware of things that are happening to mother and father. I found it very insightful to think that so many things may have begun before birth and brought to fruit only after being born. I wish that there was a volumm II since the book was written so long ago. Father Mike
