Synopsis
On October 20, 2006, a middle-aged auto mechanic, Jeff Markin, walked into the emergency room at the Palm Beach Gardens Hospital and collapsed from a massive heart attack. Forty minutes later he was declared dead. After filling out his final report, the supervising cardiologist, Dr. Chauncey Crandall, started out of the room. "Before I crossed its threshold, however, I sensed God was telling me to turn around and pray for the patient," Crandall explained. With that prayer and Dr. Crandall's instruction to give the man what seemed one more useless shock from the defibrillator, Jeff Markin came back to life--and remains alive and well today. But how did a Yale-educated cardiologist whose Palm Beach practice includes some of the most powerful people in American society, including several billionaires, come to believe in supernatural healing? The answers to these questions compose a story and a spiritual journey that transformed Chauncey Crandall. Dr. Crandall wrote that ". . . the Lord said clearly to me, 'I've called you to be a physician. . . . I've given you a platform as a physician to win the lost for Christ. You will take this platform and have influence over people, wherever you go, based on your testimony.' I finally understood that many people would find my testimony credible precisely because I was a physician rather than a professional minister." Because of Dr. Crandall's encounters with the miraculous, he presently wants to heal both people's bodies and souls instead of just trying to advance himself in the medical world and earn more money like he did in the past before his remarkable metamorphosis.
