A Nurse To The Sick Body Of Christ

Worship in spirit and in truth has to be based on God's Word that regulates us on how we must worship Him. The foundation of the regulative principle of worship is found in the first two commandments. Self-styled worship is unacceptable to God, regardless of the good intentions. Worship based on the traditions of men which were inspired by Satan are used as a sword and a shield against the truth. In doing this they successfully execute that very purpose which Satan intends them to; that of a false and perverse worship shielded by obstinacy. A top priority in choosing a church to become a member should be based on no other criteria than that of a church that has its form of worship based on biblical principals.

Anthology of Christian Bible Sermons is a compilation of Biblical rhema teachings.

A veteran nurse researcher and educator provides a spiritual perspective on the professional nurse's vocation of caring. Grounding each chapter in Scripture, O'Brien explores the Christian nurse's call to love as Jesus loved: without discrimination, reserve and, sometimes, reward.

Health is God's original created intent: whole persons, healthy relationships, a thriving environment, and ongoing interaction with himself. In the Bible, human health is body-based, community-based, and deeply integrated in a relationship with God's creating Spirit. The Pentateuch, prophets, writings, Gospels, and epistles all are deeply, if not primarily, concerned with the ongoing and ultimate health of God's good creation. Scripture also has a wide perspective on the disruption of human health. It deals with the human tendency to violence, corruption, and self-destructive behaviors. The recently renewed interest in health, vitality, and spirituality of all kinds has led to this articulation of a biblical spirituality in relation to human health. Surprisingly, when we look for spirituality in the Bible, we find real and embodied relationships. Everyone is for health and for the restoration of health. But what are health and healing? How does the Bible describe or define them? Here is the result of ten years of conversations with health care professionals in a master's course on biblical perspectives on health and healing. The biblical witness can transform the way we practice the healing arts. This book provides a biblical foundation for health and its restoration.

Tea, Sticky Buns and the Body of Christ, POSTSCIPTS FROM a NURSING HOME, is the story of one family, their beloved but stubborn father, and his last months in a nursing home. A “home” wasn’t exactly what any of them had planned...not that they ever had a plan. See how they coped - sort of - with all of the angst, incontinence and ongoing irony. Along the way, read about a nun with a bird on her shoulder, fights that erupted during bingo and daughters who laughed, cried and crumbled as they became the raw meat of the “sandwich generation.”

This 1935 collection of Ellen G. White's admonitions is reprinted in the hope of arousing God's people to follow the divine blueprint of the medical work. The content of this book is briefly summarized in these two statements: "Loma Linda is to be not only a sanitarium, but an educational center. With the possession of this place comes the mighty responsibility of making the work of the institution educational in character. The school that is to be established at Loma Linda is to stand in the freedom of the truth." "Shall we represent before the world that our physicians must follow the pattern of the world, before they can be qualified to be successful physicians? This is the question that is now testing the faith of some of our brethren. Let not any of our brethren displease the Lord by advocating in their assemblies the idea that we need to obtain from unbelievers a higher education that that specified by the Lord."
