Book excerpt: Missionary medicine flourished during the period of high European imperialism, from the late-1800s to the 1960s. Although the figure of mission doctor – exemplified by David Livingstone and Albert Schweitzer – exercised a powerful influence on the Western imagination during the nineteenth and early-twentieth centuries, few historians have examined the history of this important aspect of the missionary movement. This collection of articles on Asia and Africa uses the extensive archives that exist on medical missions to both enrich and challenge existing histories of the clinic in colonial territories – whether of the dispensary, the hospital, the maternity home or leprosy asylum. Some of the major themes addressed within include the attitude of different Christian denominations towards medical mission work, their differing theories and practices, how the missionaries were drawn into contentious local politics, and their attitude towards supernatural cures. Leprosy, often a feature of such work, is explored, as well as the ways in which local people perceived disease, healing and the missionaries themselves. Also discussed is the important contribution of women towards mission medical work. Healing Bodies, Saving Souls will be of interest not only to students and historians but also the wider reader as it aims to define the place of missionary within the overall history of medicine.

This book was released on 2021-12-07 with total page 280 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: It's amazing how God can use us when we surrender our lives to the Lord. As a young girl on a farm in Michigan, Mary Broeckert prayed, "Thank you, Lord, for what You have done. Please guide my life to accomplish whatever You desire with it, for Your glory." And with her surrender, the Lord took her on a journey of a lifetime. Present and Powerful: A Testimony of God's Working in Medical Missions by Mary Broeckert, M.D. is a compelling book which tells the author's inspiring story of serving the Lord as an overseas missionary doctor. Throughout her years of service, God led Dr. Mary, her husband, and her children to the Sahara Desert, to a mission hospital in Central African Republic, where for many years she was the only doctor in a large region, and to Cambodia. Through her experiences, readers see God's faithfulness in the author's life in distant places, in medical work in resource poor settings, and in the variety of ways God worked to bring people to Himself. Including memories of the author's childhood days, journals and letters written at the time of the actual events, plus pictures showing her life and work in each place, the book is organized chronologically from 1953 to 2017. From continent to continent and country to country, including a creative access country for four years, God guided her steps throughout life and then directed her to write this book for His glory. Now retired in the USA, Dr. Mary's heart passionately desires that God's people would joyfully entrust their lives to God's faithful hands and know His presence and power as He takes them anywhere He chooses. Come along on the journey and witness how God can move in the life of a willing heart.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Ever since Jesus’s proclamation in word and deed as the Great Physician, his followers in mission have assumed that salvation and health are intertwined. Yet for every age, Christians need to examine how they can best announce the gospel message of God’s healing in word and deed in their own context. In our era, we are often simultaneously grateful for modern medicine and frustrated by its inability to care for the whole person in effective, affordable ways. In this edited volume, authors with an interest in health missions from a wide variety of experiences and disciplines examine health and healing through the theological lens of shalom. This word, often translated “peace,” names a much more complex understanding of human well-being as right relationships with one another, with God, and with creation. Reading various aspects of healthcare missions through these glasses not only yields much-needed correctives to current practice but also exposes the Spirit’s invitation to participate in God’s ongoing work of tending, caring, and healing our broken world.
