Body & Soul: Conversations with Your Physician and Pastor

ISBN: 0595717268

Author: Marshall, Merville C

Condition: New

The book's format makes it a well-paced, enjoyable and informative read. The "conversations" enable all to understand the profound stories discussed. Whether it is an appreciative analysis of the suffering endured by a woman whose medical condition was repeatedly misdiagnosed or a piercing examination of the reflection cast by the soulful innocence of a wheelchair bound boy, Body & Soul takes the reader on an unforgettable journey. Each chapter discusses very real human issues. There is nothing like listening to a doctor talk about his experience caring for people in need. And, as simplistic as it sounds, many of us need to know how to determine when a doctor is right for us. Or, that it is "ok" to seek a second opinion. The pastor's compassionate correlation of people's medical or emotional issues with Biblical analysis and parables effectively weaves the spiritual with the physical. He consistently instills confidence in the reader by reminding us that everyone can-with God's help-overcome life's physical and emotional challenges. Read on and be well!
