Book Description
This is a "save-the-planet" book. More and more of us are realizing we are facing humanity's greatest challenge. Over the next two decades, the global warming climate crisis threatens to bring about the end of our Anthropocene Epoch - of us and virtually every multicellular life form. Stephen Erickson introduces you to exquisite creatures, human and non-human. The challenges they face reveal the immensity of the threat facing each of us - and its urgency. Widespread awareness is essential. Most of us don't realize who our Arch-Villain is - the main cause of our predicament. We all need to. And we can't win this fight without a clear understanding of the one solution we have. Key to achieving this solution rapidly and at necessary scale are Five Compassions: for Animals, for Self, for the Land, for Community, and for Democracy. Compassionate activism can create The Great Healing: the healing of our planet and the halting of the ongoing sixth great extinction. More than a "call-to-action" book, more than a book of compelling stories, this is a book with a plan. Four esteemed thought leaders have joined Stephen, contributing 3 new short essays, photos, and a poem: Wendell Berry (essayist, novelist, poet, farmer, national treasure), Joel Fuhrman, M.D. (author of 6 New York Times bestsellers including Eat to Live and The End of Diabetes), Alan Lewis (guides Food and Agriculture Policy for Natural Grocers), and investigative photographer Jo-Anne McArthur, whose images are as heartbreaking as they are beautiful.There is a reason you were born here in human form at this very special time. You matter. You are part of a special generation. You can create the future you want to see. Find your voice, use it. Join us in what will become the most important cause of all of humanity's endeavors to date. You have the power. More than you realize. You'll see."An exceptionally well and persuasively written clarion call to personal and collective action, The Great Healing - Five Compassions That Can Save Our World is unreservedly and urgently recommended." - Midwest Book Review

Faith in the Great Physician
Author: Heather D. Curtis
Publisher: JHU Press
ISBN: 1421402017
Category : Social Science
Languages : en
Pages : 456
Book Description
This history of evangelical faith healing in nineteenth-century America examines the nation’s shifting attitudes about sickness, suffering, and health. Faith in the Great Physician tells the story of how participants in the divine healing movement transformed the ways Americans coped with physical affliction and pursued bodily wellbeing. Heather D. Curtis offers critical reflection on the theological, cultural, and social forces that come into play when one questions the purpose of suffering and the possibility of healing. Belief in divine healing ran counter to a deep-seated Christian ethic that linked physical suffering with spiritual holiness. By engaging in devotional disciplines and participating in social reform efforts, proponents of faith cure embraced a model of spiritual experience that endorsed active service, rather than passive endurance, as the proper Christian response to illness and pain. Emphasizing the centrality of religious practices to the enterprise of divine healing, Curtis sheds light on the relationship among Christian faith, medical science, and the changing meanings of suffering and healing in American culture. Recipient of the Frank S. and Elizabeth D. Brewer Prize of the American Society of Church History for 2007

Divine Healing Made Simple
Author: Praying Medic
Publisher:
ISBN: 9780615937281
Category : Christian life
Languages : en
Pages : 0
Book Description
Divine Healing Made Simple is a training manual for the supernatural life. It not only covers the topic of divine healing, but deliverance, raising the dead, making disciples, proclaiming the kingdom of God, dreams, fasting, words of knowledge, healing in the work place and in health care, and it takes a prophetic look at the future of healing. Isn't it time someone wrote a book that gives honest answers to the difficult questions you have about healing and the supernatural? Why are my prayers ineffective when I ask God to heal someone? Many people have prayed for my healing - so why am I still not healed? Does God want me to learn a lesson through physical suffering and sickness? I was miraculously healed through prayer - why have my symptoms returned? This book takes a bold new approach by addressing the questions about healing that many authors have avoided so far. Three chapters are devoted to the problems of why some people are not healed and why some people seem to lose their healing. The author answers these questions by sharing revelation he received through dreams from God. He also teaches from his many personal experiences and shares the observations of other healers. This is the first book on healing to harness the power of Facebook. By hosting discussion questions on Facebook, the author has collected the wisdom and experiences of hundreds of different healers. This may be the most comprehensive book on healing ever written. Praying Medic has worked as a paramedic for decades. He has prayed for many of his patients and seen them healed. You'll be encouraged and given hope for healing by the testimonies and dreams you'll read about in this book.
