I thought the book was a very good and enlightening exposition of the dangers of presuming the will of God. I am certain that the Parkers, and many who believe as they did when they withheld insulin from their severely diabetic son, are in complete deception, honestly believing that illness is the work of Satan and that their faith in God will heal the sick. This book sets that belief straight and gives what I believe is a Biblical view of illness, faith and God's soveriegn will and power. I recommend it to anyone who believes that medical treatments are against the will of God.
A Good Read

I wish all that are involved in pentecostal movments could read this book. It is an excellent example of how false a gospel pentecostalism really is.

Going to church an beating christ into are childrens mineds are one thing but thats just what Mr & Mrs Parker was hearing ' when Church People would come over an say hey if you had more faith in the lord then he would heal little Wesley ' they was brain wash right from the start just like Jim Jones an Charles Manson did ' What Mr & Mrs Parker did not see is that the shots that they was giving Wesley was a gift from above someone should have told them that. this movie an the book are sad but it can teach us where the gifts are really from just like my on Dad he was a believer in faith one day the preacher said in church that if we had enough faith that God would heal are pains my Dad had Heart trouble one morning he stop taking his Heart pills a month after his Heart stop beating he died in an old county store while his head layed upon my Mothers lap .. I wish this movie had came out sooner if so maybe Dad would still be with us ' If you can get your hands on this book and Movie Please do so .
