Right Road : Life Choices For Clergy
$28.33Many clergy are in startlingly bad health. Not only do they regularly report depression, stress, and serious family and financial problems, they also exhibit higher than normal incidences of obesity, high cholesterol levels, inactivity, high blood pressure, and heart disease. How effective can professionals in ministry be with such debilities and vulnerabilities? Are clergy too busy helping others to take care of themselves?
Gwen Halaas’s caring and savvy book addresses clergy health directly: clergy have a spiritual as well as physical need to care for themselves, to live to the fullest, to ensure that they enjoy the life and gifts God gave them. Building her brief, practical book around the wellness wheel, Halaas emphasizes not just healthy eating but a whole array of life-affirming choices for clergy. Halaas provides the tools for clergy to choose growth and well-being over burnout and decline. With this practical and upbeat volume, clergy can begin to put their own lives in perspective and ‘keep [themselves] in training for a godly life’ (1 Timothy 4:7).

Food For Life
$28.33This book draws on L. Shannon Jung’s gifts as theologian, ethicist, pastor, and eater extraordinaire. In this deeply thoughtful but very lively book, he encourages us to see our humdrum habits of eating and drinking as a spiritual practice that can renew and transform us and our world. In a fascinating sequence that takes us from the personal to the global, Jung establishes the religious meaning of eating and shows how it dictates a healthy order of eating. He exposes Christians’ complicity in the face of widespread eating disorders we experience personally, culturally, and globally, and he argues that these disorders can be reversed through faith, Christian practices, attention to habitual activities like cooking and gardening, the church’s ministry, and transforming our cultural policies about food.

Dear God Why Am I So Tired
$19.36Dear God, Why Am I So Tired? is a prayer that most Christians are familiar with. In fact, fatigue is the number one reported reason for visiting the doctor’s office. Despite spending more money each year on the latest fad diets and medicine, the obesity and disease rates continue to climb. Many people are overweight, tired, and sick. Most diets fail because they do not address the underlying cause of weight gain. Dr. Jeffrey Blair’s groundbreaking research led to the discovery that most fatigue, weight gain, and stress-related diseases can be traced to over-stressed adrenal glands. Hypoadrenia is the most under-diagnosed yet prevalent disease of our time. Dr. Blair has spent nearly fifteen years researching the cause of fatigue, weight gain, and disease. He was one of the first physicians to report that improving adrenal gland function will lead to youthful energy and permanent weight loss. Dr. Blair’s research also showed that improved adrenal function can reduce menopausal symptoms such as hot flashes and night sweats. Dear God, Why Am I So Tired? is a practical guide to unlimited energy, weight loss, and disease prevention by overcoming adrenal exhaustion. Dr. Blair discusses his own battle with severe fatigue, obesity, and disease. He lost over forty pounds and has more energy than ever. Dr. Blair lays out a clear plan to regain and maintain optimum health.

Maxillofacial Orthopedics : A Clinical Approach For The Growing Child
$24.98It has been over twenty years since we finished writing Maxillofacial Orthopedics. Most of the patients illustrated were in my private practice. It has been a pleasure to see them grow into adults with wide, full smiles. Over the years, I have received many calls from clinicians asking where they might obtain the text. What has caught my attention is the variety of health care professionals that have requested the book. Not only dentists, but also chiropractors, ENT physicians, physical therapists, hygienists, and others have an interest in orthodontic/orthopedic treatments that protect the temporomandibular joint and result in full, healthy smiles. Since the last printing, many new ideas, techniques, and materials have been developed for improving orthodontic care. But many health care professionals are still not incorporating maxillofacial orthopedic techniques into their treatment of malocclusion or temporomandibular disorder. This paperback version of our original text is an effort to reach clinicians who did not have an opportunity to read or have the text available for teaching their staff or patients about maxillofacial techniques.

How often have you gone to a new physician or taken your newborn, child, spouse, or parent to a doctor’s office and been requested to fill out a questionnaire? This usually pertains to a variety of issues such as symptoms, current medication dosages, allergies, and family history, just to mention a few. Questions need to be asked, so write down the information prior to appointments in the places provided in this journal so you can record the answers when needed. “Trying to remember” is frustrating in the event of an emergency or catastrophic illness resulting in admission to a hospital or long-term care facility when medical information must be provided. Keep at hand important personal and doctors’ phone numbers, medication history, a list of allergies and inoculations, a ledger of expenses, and admission/discharge summaries, and know how to request medical chart information. Keeping this journal will assist you in being prepared for the everyday and the unexpected, and will assure that what is placed into the medical files is accurate. Be your own advocate and not a statistic, because if not you, then who?

Que Comeria Jesus – (Spanish)
$14.99The Christian market is flooded with diet and exercise programs, each claiming to be “God’s way” to healthy living.

Or better yet, What Would Jesus Eat? This comprehensive eating plan examines Scripture and reveals what we know Jesus ate and what we can confidently infer He ate. Using current medical research, What Would Jesus Eat? demonstrates why the diet Jesus followed is ideal for twenty-first century living as well. Readers will:
Understand why foods forbidden in the Old Testament dietary laws are unhealthy for us.
Learn how to follow Jesus’ eating model with foods that are available today.
Realize the health benefits of the food Jesus ate and the health risks of the food He avoided.
The second half of the book equips the reader with tools to effectively follow the plan — recipes, nutritional information, and practical advice. For those desiring to safely lose weight and for those seeking a healthier, Bible-based eating program, the only question to ask is, What Would Jesus Eat?Add to cartin stock within 3-5 days of online purchase
