The earth is the Lord’s, and everything in it,
the world, and all who live in it;
the world, and all who live in it;
Psalm 24:1 (NIV)
A modern social virtue has been identified in the “green” movement. How do we act as good stewards of the resources entrusted to us? There are a lot of answers that address those resources that are external to us; but what about us, what sustains us?
Whether we are in ministry or medicine, our communities have invested a great deal in our training and support. How do we most effectively, efficiently and sustainably care for this investment? In reality, most of the effort has been in addressing the “unsustainable”. What hasn’t been addressed is what is sustains us as healing agents.
In the soon to be published book, “Equipping Healing Agents: Sustaining Vocation” the gifts that we have received as a part of God’s creation are addressed. It is not a self-help or book on professionalism. It is about a wider view of what has been given to us as we follow our vocation and how those gifts sustain us.
