Download or read book The Balance Concept in Health and Nursing written by Daisy Magalit Rodriguez and published by iUniverse. This book was released on 2014-03-04 with total page 261 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The central idea in this book is the concept of balance composed of five universal elements that support survival of all human beings—adaptation, equilibrium, homeostasis, needs and health—and how it applies to health and nursing. Behavior is the key that unlocks these elements through interaction with the internal and external environments. The concepts of imbalance, personality, open systems, behavior pyramid, culture, technology, and physical forces are viewed as influences that affect behavior. Using existing related concepts and theories derived from the social, nursing, and physical sciences, a novel view of the health-illness continuum was conceptualized. From this theoretical background, a new nursing model was developed – the Balance-Health Nursing Model (BHNM) using balance as a framework in the nursing process. A Balance Health Assessment Tool was developed with a sample case study to demonstrate its use. This view of balance offers an alternative approach to health and illness and the role of nursing and other health care professionals in their practice settings.

Download or read book Poetry of Life written by Kenneth Mcintosh and published by Christian Faith Publishing, Inc.. This book was released on 2022-01-24 with total page 527 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: After reading that the great poets say that poetry makes truth more real and seeing so much poetry God used in the Bible, I became convinced that it must be true that verse makes truth more real. In 1996, I began writing Poetry from a Biblical Perspective with the goal of making the truth of the Bible more real. For the next twenty years, I wrote 230 carefully crafted poems drawn from the veracity and wisdom of God's word. It's my suggestion that when you feel discouraged and need hope, comfort, and guidance, go to this book to pick some poems that hopefully will give you fresh hope, encouragement, and guidance. The Bible says God in his divine power has granted us everything pertaining to life and godliness. It is my hope and prayer that you will discover something through the poetry that touches the heart, moves the imagination, and makes truth more real.

Download or read book Rethinking Retirement written by John Piper and published by Crossway. This book was released on 2009-03-27 with total page 34 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: John Piper challenges fellow baby boomers to forego the American dream of retirement and live out their golden years with a far greater purpose in mind. They say it's a person's reward for all those years of labor. "Turn in your time card and trade in your IRAs. Let travel plans and golf-course leisure lead the way." But is retirement really the ideal? Or is it a series of poor options that ignore a greater purpose-and will kill a person more quickly than old age? John Piper responds: "Lord, spare me this curse!" And his resounding message is for anyone who believes there's far more to the golden years than accumulating comforts. It's for readers who long to finish better than they started, persevere for the right reasons (and without fear), experience true security, value what lies beyond their cravings, and live dangerously for the One who gave his life in his prime. With this brief book, Piper is sure to spur fellow baby boomers in their resolve to invest themselves in the sacrifices of love -and to grow old with godly zeal.
Download or read book Beyond Reasonable Doubt written by T. Scott Womble and published by Xulon Press. This book was released on 2008 with total page 494 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Beyond Reasonable Doubt is not just another book among many tackling the issues surrounding the role of women in the church. After witnessing discussions on this topic in settings as varied as the seminary classroom, the foyers in the local church, and even his own living room, Scott Womble sought to bring these perspectives into one holistic discussion. The result is a comprehensive resource which addresses theology, exegesis and everyday life. Utilizing the hypothetical setting of a courtroom, Womble argues that the case which sentences women to secondary roles in ministry demands a retrial. An accumulation of 95 solid arguments is presented on behalf of the women who need a defense attorney as they await the verdict regarding their place in the church. His 95 theses raise more than reasonable doubt and clearly show that women must be released into ministry. Scott Womble (B.S., Saint Louis Christian College; M. Div., Lincoln Christian Seminary) is professor of biblical studies at Saint Louis Christian College where he also serves as the Adults in Ministry Coordinator. Prior to joining the college in 2002, Womble served as full-time preaching minister in central Illinois for seven years. He still regularly fills the pulpit on Sunday mornings, having preached at over fifty churches. He is a regular book reviewer for the Stone-Campbell Journal. Womble is an avid sports enthusiast. Scott and his wife Lisa have been married twenty-three years and have two children, Amanda and Michael.

Book excerpt: While the Bible has been documented to be the most-published and most-sold book ever, how many people actually take the time to open, read, and study this precious gift? If we truly believe this Book is from God Himself and contains the Way of salvation, shouldn't we cherish It as the most valuable treasure we could possibly possess? With the help of the Holy Spirit, shouldn't our lives reflect the passion of these priceless Words? My granddaughter likes to wear a necklace to church, so I gave her a necklace of pearls that my wonderful son-in-law had given me upon returning from the Philippines on business. I explained to her that one day this necklace of pearls would belong to her, making them very special because they came from her Daddy. This book contains a few of the verses I love to ponder, share, and cherish. They are Pearls that my Heavenly Father gave to me, to you, and to the entire world as a message of His love and forgiveness. I want to share several of these priceless Pearls and share what each means in my life hoping to encourage you to develop your own string of Pearls. May a true passion inspire each of us not only to collect these Pearls but also to share them with the people in our lives who are in need of help and healing. By the power of the Holy Spirit, may our string of Pearls grow into a necklace of Pearls that will sustain our faith now and throughout eternity. By the grace of God, may we pass on this priceless necklace of Pearls to future generations that they may hold God's love letters, the Bible, close to their heart resting secure in His promises now and throughout eternity.
