There are two remarkable aspects to Mike Endicott's work. First, his ministry is blessed with astonishing miracles; second, he suffers from retinitis pigmentosa, which led to his becoming completely blind in his mid-forties. This is his account of his life and teaching. He explains: "I am convinced that God wants his church to have the same reputation today that Jesus had during his earthly ministry. I reckon he wants people to say the same sort of things about us that they must have said to each other about those first-generation disciples. Our ministry has to do what it says on the tin."

Mike Endicott takes a fresh look at healing as an aspect of the life of the kingdom of God. Jesus' ministry shows that kingdom healing is: * Freely available from God, whose will is to heal * meant for everyone, not just a few special ones * not all about delving into the sufferer's background in search of 'blockages' * not dependent on 'techniques' and methods We need to rediscover the heart of kingdom living: the telling of the good news; an atmosphere of faith; practical obedience to God's word; praise and worship; the Lordship of Jesus, in whom the love and the will of the Father are revealed, and the activity of the Holy Spirit. In the life of the kingdom, healing is found. MIKE ENDICOTT lives in South Wales where, together with others, he founded the original Well Centre, as a place for the Christian healing ministry. He spends his life in prayer and the encouragement of others through ministry and teaching, which has now seen many new Wells being established throughout the UK.

The author writes: After showing some appreciative visitors around his fine old church, a clergyman is asked: "How many years ago did they last have a church service in here? The realisation dawned that his visitors (perhaps like many others) innocently assumed that his church was a museum.... Returning home, he exchanged his clerical collar for a casual shirt and wandered around the nearby shopping centre for almost an hour, occasionally asking the busy passers-by for directions to his own church. No one could help him.... Mike Endicott explores the personal implications of that challenge to a minister. In a largely indifferent, unbelieving world, does God still act in power? And does he heal the sick today? The author has a passion for Christian healing. He teaches how to pray and minister effectively, focusing on the presence and compassion of Jesus Christ.

Reflections on Relationship, Fruitfulness and the Kingdom. The author writes: "We must have a lively, active ministry which comes up with the goods! Our ministry has to do what it says on the tin, as they say. People today are not so excited by religious theories as we might have been a few hundred years ago. Today's worldly general public are not overawed and duped by high ritual or by any practices at all that don't come up with significant and measurable results. That's the way the world is. "We need to see a ministry with tangible consequences, as we see in the earthly ministry of Jesus and the apostles. We need something that works and it would appear to the simple childlike mind that the early church, men and women, had just that!" In this book, Mike Endicott encourages us to focus on the really important thing: our relationship with our Lord and King in his wonderful Kingdom. That is what has to be at the heart of healing.
