For Your Health
$14.99Add to cart“Why are optimistic people drawn to pray for healing of their own ailments and for illnesses of people they love? Is it just goodwill, or is there evidence that God does, in fact, heal our bodies, and if so, how can healing be accessed?” (Lorna Dueck)
Every generation must wrestle with the interpretation and practice of the miraculous. Our health fails, accidents happen, and disappointment over mind and bodies that are weak can become a crushing disappointment. Into any health decline, the Christian is challenged to do something through the ancient teaching of Holy Scripture.
“Is anyone among you sick? Let them call the elders of the church to pray over him and anoint him with oil in the name of the Lord…the prayer of a righteous person is powerful and effective.” (James 5:14-16, NIV).
Lorna Dueck and Dr. Nell DeBoer have sat at the cross-section of hope and faith in their unique roles as journalist and hospital chaplain. In their combined work of “”For Your Health: A Look into God’s Methods for Healing,”” they document what happens when people take the mystery of God, obedience to pray for healing, and broken health into spiritual practice. Through a well-selected collection of ailments and healings that are true and diverse, this book explores encounters with God that have helped people get better in body and mind.

Cancer Free : Are You Sure
$19.99Add to cartGives actionable steps and instructions to help access state-of-the-art tests that detect cancer years before the lump or bump manifests.
Explains treatment options other than chemotherapy, surgery, and radiation.
Includes a free resource download-valuable tools readers can use to quickly find information for contacting integrative cancer physicians and better understand how cancer develops’
Many are led to believe the only way to discover cancer is waiting for a tumor to grow enough to see it with a mammogram, a biopsy, or a PET scan. This is dead wrong! These tests typically will not detect cancer until it has been growing for many years. Roughly one out of every three people will be diagnosed with cancer in their lifetime. Breast cancer survivor nurse Jenny Hrbacek hopes to change that.
In her book Hrbacek shows readers how to detect cancer years before it’s typically found through screenings. She explains where to get the most effective tests for early detection, what those tests look for, how much they cost, and how accurate they are. For those who have been diagnosed with cancer, Hrbacek explains how they can avoid being subjected to the one-size-fits-all treatments, as well as which drugs and natural therapies are effective for which cancers. She also includes resources for preventing the occurrence of cancer altogether. This book will empower readers to gain control of their health and stop cancer before it’s unstoppable.

Plough Quarterly Number17 The Soul Of Medicine
$10.00Add to cartWe need a vision of how medicine might serve the good of the whole human person: the body’s health, but also the health of that “piece of divinity in us.”
Medicine, so long as you don’t need it, is a tangential part of life, just one more profession among others. Until that is, a loved one suffers an accident or falls sick. Then, suddenly, medicine is quite literally, a matter of life or death. Medicine is also big business. Doctors have been reclassified as “service providers,” and patients are “clients.” Such commercialism breeds false incentives and inequalities, even in nations.
We need a vision of how medicine might serve the good of the whole human person: the body’s health, but also the health of that “piece of divinity in us.” We need love and reverence for humans as they are, not humans as technology may someday engineer them to be. Jesus, the healer from Nazareth, showed what it means to love the imperfect, the frail, the average. The glory of the medical profession is that it is dedicated to these works of mercy. In today’s money-driven healthcare industry, such tasks are often poorly rewarded. Yet they’re at the heart of medicine’s original mission.
Also in this issue: original poetry by Suzanne Harlan Heyd; reviews of new books by Barbara Ehrenreich, Ryan T. Anderson, Beth Macy, and David R. Montgomery and Anne Bikle; and art by Tim Lowly, Michelangelo, Julian Peters, Wanjin Gim, Scott Goldsmith, Jan Mostaert, Suleiman Mansour, Cecile Massie, Peter Doig, Erin Hanson, and Jason Landsel.
Plough Quarterly features stories, ideas, and culture for people eager to put their faith into action. Each issue brings you in-depth articles, interviews, poetry, book reviews, and art to help you put Jesus’ message into practice and find common cause with others.

Imaging And Imagining Illness
$22.00Add to cartMedical imaging technologies can help diagnose and monitor patients’ diseases, but they do not capture the lived experience of illness. In this volume, Devan Stahl shares her story of being diagnosed with multiple sclerosis with the aid of magnetic resonance images (MRIs). Although clinically useful, Stahl did not want these images to be the primary way she or anyone else understood her disease or what it is like to live with MS. With the help of her printmaker sister, Darian Goldin Stahl, they were able to reframe these images into works of art. The result is an altogether different image of the ill body. Now, the Stahls open up their project to four additional scholars to help shed light on the meaning of illness and the impact medical imaging can have on our cultural imagination. Using their insights from the medical humanities, literature, visual culture, philosophy, and theology, the scholars in this volume advance the discourse of the ill body, adding interpretations and insights from their disciplinary fields. “”In this fascinating and quite unique book, Devan Stahl and some of those who love her offer a deep, rich, and at points quite moving insight into what it means to live into enduring forms of illness. The interdisciplinary approach is powerful in the way that it allows us to see Devan’s illness experiences from a variety of perspectives. . . .I commend this book and I pray that it both informs and changes people’s views on what it means to live humanly in the company of enduring illness.

Discussion QuestionsAdditional Info
Our neighborhoods are literally making us sick.Buildings with mold trigger asthma and other respiratory conditions. Geographic lack of access to food and health care increases childhood mortality. Community violence traumatizes residents. Poverty, unemployment, inadequate housing, food insecurity, racial injustice, and oppression cause physical changes in the body, resulting in disease and death.
But there is hope. Loving our neighbor includes creating social environments in which people can be healthy. While working in community redevelopment and treating uninsured families, Veronica Squires and Breanna Lathrop discovered that creating healthier neighborhoods requires a commitment to health equity. Jesus’ ministry brought healing through dismantling systems of oppression and overturning social norms that prevented people from living healthy lives. We can do the same in our communities through addressing social determinants that facilitate healing in under-resourced neighborhoods.
Everyone deserves the opportunity for good health. The decisions we make and actions we take can promote the health of our neighbors.

11. FaithfulAdditional Info
This book will make no attempt to defend God. . . . If you are looking for a book that boasts triumphantly of conquest over a great enemy, or gives a detached philosophical analysis that neatly solves an absorbing problem, this isn’t it. Too often the Christian attitude toward suffering is characterized by a detached academic appeal to God’s sovereignty, as if suffering were a game or a math problem. Or maybe we expect that since God is good, everything will just work out all right somehow. But where then is honest lament? Aren’t we shortchanging believers of the riches of the Christian teaching about suffering? In Embodied Hope Kelly Kapic invites us to consider the example of our Lord Jesus. Only because Jesus has taken on our embodied existence, suffered alongside us, died, and been raised again can we find any hope from the depths of our own dark valleys of pain. As we look to Jesus, we are invited to participate not only in his sufferings, but also in the church, which calls us out of isolation and into the encouragement and consolation of the communal life of Christ. Drawing on his own family’s experience with prolonged physical pain, Kapic reshapes our understanding of suffering into the image of Jesus, and brings us to a renewed understanding of-and participation in-our embodied hope. -

Winning The Inside Battle Of Wellness
$17.99Add to cartStatistically, best-selling author and doctor Ben Lerner should have ended up like his parents–sick, addicted to nicotene and dead of a heart attack or stroke by the time he hit middle age. But from an early age he saw the consequences of poor health choices and made a commitment not to follow in their footsteps.

Instead of immediately tackling diet, he begins with the mind, uncovering how eating and lifestyle habits can shape the way our brain develops–and how we can harness those same forces to become healthier.
Next, Dr. Ben explores how our personalities and emotional health can impact our wellness and offers practical tools for deeper self-awareness, reshaping the way we think and respond to our environment and relationships. Finally, he addresses the biological impact of various foods and activities on our bodies and offers a roadmap for transforming the way we eat–tricking our bodies into craving the foods that will ensure a long and healthy life.
Complete with dietary charts, exercise plans, recipes and practical tips, Winning the Inside Battle of Wellness will help you overcome the challenges that stand between you and a healthy, fulfilling lifestyle. -

When my doctor told me I was dying, I came alive. What happens when you come face to face with your mortality? When your body fails you, what happens to your faith? Russ Ramsey was struck by a bacterial infection that destroyed his mitral valve, sending him into heart failure and requiring urgent open-heart surgery. As he faced the possibility of death, he found himself awakened to new realities. In the critical days and months that followed, Ramsey came to see the world through the eyes of affliction. He grappled with fear, anger, depression, and loss, and yet he experienced grace through the suffering that filled him with a hope and hunger for the life to come. This profoundly eloquent memoir gives voice to the deepest questions of the human condition. In the midst of pain, we can see glimpses of eternity. -
Your Cholesterol Matters (Reprinted)
$15.00Add to cartWhen it comes to our health, what we don’t know can harm us most. Eighty-five percent of people over the age of fifty have significant blockage in the arteries of their hearts without any symptoms. Two-thirds of the time, the initial symptom is a full-blown heart attack. Doctors tell patients to watch their diet, get regular exercise, and lose weight–but they also increasingly prescribe “cholesterol lowering” drugs that patients will take every day for the rest of their lives. The problem is that a daily pill only addresses one small part of the cholesterol problem.
Dr. Furman wants readers to understand what their cholesterol numbers mean, how best to change levels of both the “lethal” LDL cholesterol and “hero” HDL cholesterol, and how to adjust their lifestyles in order to stay off of expensive medications that don’t address the whole problem (and often have negative health-impacting side effects). Not only will Dr. Furman’s advice make them healthier in the short term, it will also enable them to have more control over the aging process, allowing them to live longer, better lives.

Holy Listening : With Breath Body And The Spirit
$14.99Add to cartMany of us long to hear God’s voice, yet often we overlook the great wisdom God gave us in our bodies. There is a deep connection between our bodies and spirits. What might happen if we listened more deeply to the wisdom of our bodies? How might that change the way we listen to God? A stroke at age 31 forced Whitney Simpson to slow down and listen more deeply to her body. During her journey toward healing and wholeness, she found several ancient practices helpful in listening to God and her body: lectio divina, yoga, breath prayer, essential oils, and reflection. Ultimately she found God’s peace. Listening with the entire body, not just our ears, may seem like a strange concept. Yet God created the body and breath to give us life. We don’t have to experience a crisis to learn to listen to God’s activity in and around us. We can slow down and use the gift of our breath and our bodies to listen for God anytime and anywhere. This 40-day prayer book guides us to listen more closely to God with our bodies. Each day includes scripture, yoga postures, breath prayers, essential oils, and reflection questions.
