Obituaries
Dr John Geater MBE (q 1967, Birmingham)
John served most of his working life as a GP in Hastings, but God had laid a wider world on his heart. Medicine, a profession that had once been an expression of the love of God, but which was now arid and secular. But all wisdom and knowledge were supposed to belong to God, so John was determined to win the knowledge and wisdom of the medical professions back for the kingdom of God. Starting with four friends in a pub garden, over 25 years he built up a ministry bringing a whole person, Christian values-based approach to the teaching of medicine. This is now practised in more than 60 countries. This ministry is now known as PRIME [see page 3].
Renowned for his tangential thinking, passionate communication, deep love of the Lord Jesus and mischievous sense of humour, John was a role model and inspiration to many. He went home to be with the Lord in September.
