Review-Description

"Healing Agents is a remarkable, brief book of testimonies, comment and elements on the subject of healing. It invites one to reflect, ponder, engage in conversation toward integration of our science and the transcendence of our healing ministries to those suffering the afflictions of our broken world. Our concerns focus on the relationship between "high tech vs. high touch," and as Abraham Verghese M.D. warns of our patients becoming icons. This book returns our thinking to the realities of calling and healing in the Christian tradition, and is timely as our nation wrestles with healthcare and the education of providers. Suffering is part of a broken world; healing is according to the will of God."
