Reclaiming the Body (The Christian Practice of Everyday Life) : Christians and the Faithful Use of Modern Medicine EPUB
by Joel Shuman, Brian M.D. Volck
Part of the The Christian Practice of Everyday Life series
EPUB
Description
We live in an age of incredible medical technology, and with it, a great emphasis on health and well-being. We fully entrust the care of our bodies to the medical profession, often taking its solutions and judgments as gospel. But what role, if any, should our Christian faith play in all this?
In Reclaiming the Body, a physician and a theologian take a critical look at some of the assumptions we draw from the medical profession and explore what theology has to say about medicine, our bodies, our health, and the Body of Christ. The authors deal with such issues as suffering, caring for the sick, children and reproductive technologies, medicine and the poor, our obsession with physical perfection, and death and dying.
