Healing: Stories of Faith, Hope and Love

Author: Jan Alkir

How to repair body, mind and spirit through God's healing love is the subject of this practical, readable, and insightful guidebook. In material organized into four major sections, the author--an experienced physical therapist and lay catechist--offers counsel and instruction on the facets of healing that include how to recognize the need to seek help, and how to use the resources of recovery-prayer, meditation, supportive relationships, forgiveness and ministry. For all these strengths, the greatest lies in its message of hope--that with the help of a loving God, we can effect our own healing.

Pragmatic and heartening, Healing: Stories of Faith, Hope, and Love is recommended for:

• anyone who needs healing
