Book excerpt: Christians face relentless attacks from an ungodly culture, a formidable adversary, and our own fallen natures. Yet we cannot afford to surrender to these very real enemies. Just as survivalists use 10 specific strategies to overcome threatening situations, Courageous explains 10 biblical strategies for surviving--and thriving--in a world that is hostile to our faith. As A.W. Tozer said, "A scared world needs a fearless church." Courageous is a clarion call for Christians to boldly live out their faith. If you've felt your faith is under attack, if you're struggling with the temptation to follow the crowd despite biblical teaching to the contrary, or if you're just feeling weary, the 10 strategies in Courageous will provide fresh fire and new hope.

Download or read book Courageous Confrontations written by Richard H. Helfant and published by Sentient Publications. This book was released on 2005 with total page 226 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: "Life-threatening illness is more than a crisis of the body; it is a crisis of the soul. During thirty-five as a hospital-based cardiologist, Dr. Helfant often saw patients faced with a catastrophic illness react either with paralyzing fear or great courage. Through his patients' stories, he shows how the critically ill have an opportunity to heal their soul as well as their body. Those who challenge their illness head on frequently awaken to deep internal truths about themselves and emerge with a heightened self-awareness." "Why are some people able to overcome fear and summon their inner strength to find the will to live? By reading their stories of illness and recovery, you will come to understand how a Mafia kingpin, a Wall Street wheeler-dealer, and an arrogant surgeon were able to tap previously hidden resources to confront their mortality."--BOOK JACKET.
Download or read book The Patient Doctor written by Ben Bravery and published by . This book was released on 2023-01-26 with total page 0 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: At the age of twenty-eight, with his Beijing-based science communications business doing well and a new relationship blossoming, Ben Bravery woke from a colonoscopy to be told he had stage 3 colorectal cancer. As a scientist, Ben understood the seriousness of his condition. Cancer had quite literally whacked him in the guts, after all. But what he didn't expect was how being a patient, and a young one at that, would make him feel. Why hadn't he been better prepared for the embarrassment and vulnerability of lying naked on the radiation table? Why wasn't he warned about the sheer number of tubes he would discover coming out of his body after surgery? Why did it feel like an imposition to ask doctors about his pain on their ward rounds? And why did he have to repeat the same information to them over and over again? During eighteen long months of treatment, including aggressive chemotherapy, Ben felt scared, overwhelmed, sometimes invisible and often alone. As he recovered, it struck Ben that after everything he'd been through he couldn't go back to his former career. He needed a change - and he wanted to make change. He wanted to become a doctor. He passed the entrance exam and dived headfirst into the challenges of medical school - including an unrelenting timetable, terrifying ward rounds and the difficulty of maintaining compassion under pressure. Now, driven by his experience on both sides of the healthcare system, this patient-turned-doctor gives a no-holds-barred account of how he overcame the trauma of his illness to study medicine and shares what he believes student doctors, doctors, patients and their families need to do to ensure that the medical system puts the patient at the very heart of healthcare every day. Honest, powerful, eye-opening and sometimes heart-wrenchingly funny, this is an inspiring memoir that shows that no matter our situation we all need to be treated with care and compassion, right until the very end.

Download or read book Choosing Courage written by Peter Collier and published by Artisan Books. This book was released on 2015-05-19 with total page 241 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: How does an ordinary person become a hero? It happens in a split second, a moment of focus and clarity, when a choice is made. Here are the gripping accounts of Medal of Honor recipients who demonstrated guts and selflessness on the battlefield and confronted life-threatening danger to make a difference. There are the stories of George Sakato and Vernon Baker—both of whom overcame racial discrimination to enlist in the army during World War II (Sakato was a second-generation Japanese American, Baker an African American) and went on to prove that heroes come in all colors—and Clint Romesha, who led his outnumbered fellow soldiers against a determined enemy to prevent the Taliban from taking over a remote U.S. Army outpost in Afghanistan. Also included are civilians who have been honored by the Congressional Medal of Honor Foundation for outstanding acts of bravery in crisis situations, from a school shooting to the 9/11 attacks on the World Trade Center. Adding depth and context are illuminating essays on the combat experience and its aftermath, covering topics such as overcoming fear; a mother mourning the loss of her son; and “surviving hell” as a prisoner of war.

Book excerpt: This book is the remarkable true story of a young doctor who spends his life among the Pygmies. In the 1960s, Jerry was in a state of rebellion. He joined the Weather Underground, and he protested the U.S. government. Later, Dr. Jerry joined the Peace Corps and went to the Congo. By then, he had given up on God, but God did not give up on him. After returning from the Congo, in the quiet of a church, God revealed Himself to Jerry. God had a plan and purpose for Jerry's life and used Jerry to demonstrate His love, peace, and hope to the poorest of the poor. Dr. Jerry dedicated his life to serving the Batwa Pygmies from a remote mission in the Congo rainforest. He faced many challenges from government officials, hostile soldiers, witch doctors, cultural beliefs, oppression, betrayal, and corruption. These unforgettable accounts detail the trials and hardships endured to improve the Pygmies' lives. Dr. Jerry trained "barefoot doctors" to treat patients in villages connected only by footpaths through the jungle. He worked tirelessly to build schools and boarding homes for the Batwa Pygmies, whom he described as the "poorest of the poor." Dr. Jerry was a teacher, doctor, mentor, and evangelist. Dr. Jerry promised his family that he would write a letter each week. He shared the "good, bad, and ugly" as Jerry wanted readers to know the successes and failures. This story details the Pygmies' way of life, culture, beliefs, and oppression by the Ekonda. You will be inspired by how one man changed the lives of thousands.
