Healing Is Yours

Suffering from a non-treatable medical condition, Phillip Goldfedder, a Jewish neurosurgeon, “risked” a visit to a healing service at a Christian church in Florida.  He was overwhelmed during the service when he received total healing of the condition that had given him chronic, severe pain for more than two years.  God touched his body, and remains completely free from all pain.

This awesome experience led Dr. Goldfedder to reexamine many of his concepts, philosophies, and beliefs.  He began to study the Bible and to learn all he could about God and Jesus Christ.  He had been well-educated in the medical arts and had practiced medicine as a neurosurgeon for many years, but now a new, more-powerful method of healing became his focus.

Through an intense study of the Bible, he learned many things about God’s ways, especially as they relate to healing.  To his surprise, he could not find any mention in the Bible of a doctor healing anyone!  However, he did find many examples of God’s healing power and the ministry of Jesus, the Great Physician.

Dr. Goldfedder began to practice the principles of God’s Word in his desire to bring healing to others.  He soon found that people suffering from conditions that had previously required his surgical intervention were being healed through the power of Jesus Christ, without surgery!

Dr. Goldfedder graduated from Central High School in Philadelphia, Pennsylvania, where he received a BA degree.  He then attended Albright College in Reading, Pennsylvania, from which he received a BS degree.  He received his medical degree from New York Medical College.  Phillip is quick to point out that MD does not stand for “Medical Deity,” for he now realizes the limitations of medicine in providing the help people need.

He served his internship in Reading, Pennsylvania, and a five-year neurosurgical residency at Episcopal Hospital in Philadelphia.  During those years of training, Dr. Goldfedder never dreamed that he would one day get involved with a spiritual healing ministry.  However, as the years went on he experienced, “...an unanticipated disappointment when patients often failed to respond to the teachings and methods of conventional and traditional medical treatments.”

This disappointment paved the way for the amazing discoveries contained within this book.  Dr. Goldfedder went on to obtain a Doctorate in Christian Education.  Even so, he could never get his wife to call him “Doctor Doctor!”  During the time he was writing Healing Is Yours, Dr. Goldfedder was ordained as a minister of the Gospel of Jesus Christ, and he now has the opportunity to speak in various churches and conferences.  He lives in Edison, New Jersey, with his wife, Maureen and their five beagles.
