Visit the Sick


Book Description

How Do You Care for the Sick? Here’s How. One of the marks of the ministry of Jesus is his compassionate care for the sick. Jesus brought healing and hope to individuals struggling with life-debilitating illnesses. Ministry to the sick should also be a mark of his followers, but in many churches today it is neglected or pushed to the periphery of ministry concerns. To counter our modern tendency to minimize or ignore sickness, pastor Brian Croft looks to paradigms of the past and examines historical models of care that honor God, obey the teachings of Scripture, and communicate loving care to those who are struggling with sickness and disease. Part of the Practical Shepherding series of resources, Visit the Sick provides pastors and ministry leaders with real-world help to do the work of pastoral ministry in a local church. Visit the Sick gives pastors, church leaders, and caregivers the biblical, theological, pastoral, and practical tools they need to navigate through both the spiritual and physical care of the sick and dying.




Let's Talk About Love


Book Description

For his 2007 critically acclaimed 33 1/3 series title, Let's Talk About Love, Carl Wilson went on a quest to find his inner Céline Dion fan and explore how we define ourselves by what we call good and bad, what we love and what we hate. At once among the most widely beloved and most reviled and lampooned pop stars of the past few decades, Céline Dion's critics call her mawkish and overblown while millions of fans around the world adore her “huge pipes” and even bigger feelings. How can anyone say which side is right? This new, expanded edition goes even further, calling on thirteen prominent writers and musicians to respond to themes ranging from sentiment and kitsch to cultural capital and musical snobbery. The original text is followed by lively arguments and stories from Nick Hornby, Krist Novoselic, Ann Powers, Mary Gaitskill, James Franco, Sheila Heti and others. In a new afterword, Carl Wilson examines recent cultural changes in love and hate, including the impact of technology and social media on how taste works (or doesn't) in the 21st century.

Let's Talk About Your Health: a Biblically Based Approach


Book Description

Have you ever experienced difficulty initiating an encounter with someone who was physically challenged, chronically or terminally ill? Have you ever wished that you could immediately locate the appropriate scripture that would minister to their needs during these circumstances? Perhaps you may have desired to share a relevant testimony that would provide a measure of hope and edification during a visit with a person who was ill. Lets Talk About Your Health: A Biblically Based Approach has been written with these scenarios in mind. It is divided into eight chapters, with each highlighting a particular physical health area with supporting scripture. This third book by Dr. Hodges and Dr. Betton in the area of spirituality and medicine provides new resources that have not been included; in the two previous books. The authors have included an Index which is particularly helpful in locating scriptures consistent with the chapter and subject discussed. There is ample space, as part of the Index, for the reader to list other scriptures that might also be useful in ministering to one experiencing an illness. While this book provides a cogent conversation about health, it also has the potential to catapult the reader into a rewarding awareness of his or her health priorities as viewed through the compelling voice of Gods Word.
