Enjoyed the first part where the author talks about growing up in China and the ending. In between there seemed to be some contradictions around healings and methods. And it seemed that everyone's healing was attributed to the authors prayers even though some situations would have been headed without any intervention. Didn't like the attempt at justifying when healing did not take place.
Agnes Sanford's autobiography is a fascinating look into the life and thinking of a person who, probably more than any other individual in the 20th Century, did more to revive the ministry of intercessory healing prayer and bring it into the mainstream of Christian belief.

This is an excellent look at a woman's faith journey from China to New Jersey to California. She believed that God could heal anything (physical or spiritual) and acted on that belief. Her faith is refreshing in a Christian age lacking a sense of the mysteries of God.
