What Cannot Be Undone
Author: Walter M. Robinson
Publisher: University of New Mexico Press
ISBN: 0826363717
Category : Literary Collections
Languages : en
Pages : 176
Book Description
"Dr. Walter M. Robinson does not see himself as some version of the all-knowing, all-capable--and wholly fictional--physicians seen on TV. He struggles with his limitations and imperfections, agonizes over whether he is doing the right thing for his patients, and examines his motives and attitudes with rigor and honesty. In his award-winning debut essay collection, What Cannot be Undone, Robinson shares suprising stories of illness and medicine that do not sacrifice hard truth for easy dramatics. These true stories are filled with details of difficult days and nights in the world of high-tech medical care, and they show the ongoing sturggle in making critical decisions with no good answer. This collection presents the raw moments where his expertise in medical ethics and pediatrics are put to the test while caring for children and young adults with life-limiting illnesses. He is neither saint, nor hero, nor wizard. Robinson admits that on his best days he was merely ordinary. Yet in writing down the authentic stories of his patients, Robinson discovers what led him to the practice of medicine--and how his idealism was no match for the realities he faced in modern health care"--

Voices of Lament
Author: Natasha Sistrunk Robinson
Publisher: Revell
ISBN: 149343893X
Category : Religion
Languages : en
Pages : 274
Book Description
Our culture wants you to be happy. It rewards those who smile through the pain, who pretend everything's fine, who compartmentalize grief and get on with life. But everything's not fine. And God does not expect us to pretend it is. He wants all of us--including our pain. Perhaps nowhere in Scripture do we get as full a picture of the heights and depths of the human experience as in the Psalms. The outpourings of emotion never shy away from the darkest moments of life, and yet they also point toward the light--toward the God in whom we place our hope. Inspired by Psalm 37, Voices of Lament is a powerful collection of reflections from Christian Women of Color on themes of injustice, heartache, and deep suffering. Their essays, prayers, poems, and liturgies lay bare the experiences of the oppressed even as they draw us into deeper intimacy with God and a more fulsome understanding of each other. For anyone who longs to better express and understand the beauty of lament held in holy tension with hope and love, this extraordinary collection presents both well-known and new voices from various ethnic and people groups and different generations, putting God's faithfulness on full and glorious display.
