I have known Dr. Kam Wong for many years, and I highly esteem him for the spirit of excellence and deep commitment to the Word of God. In the past few decades, there has been a growing desire in the body of Christ for deeper understanding and wholesome approach to the subject of inner healing. I believe Dr. Kam makes a significant contribution in this book as a man proficient in medical practice with a solid grasp of biblical theology. I am excited to see this book published. It reminds me of the saying: “Nothing is more powerful than an idea whose time has come.” (Victor Hugo)
