“Do ancient religious practices help in healing today? Is prayer of benefit? If so, what kind of prayers? What about ‘laying on of hands’ or ‘casting out demons?’” --Jerry L. Old, MD
Published by Christian Faith Publishing, Jerry L. Old, MD’s new book shares true stories of how people have used their spiritual side to heal.
Over three-fourths of patients entering a hospital wish that their healthcare providers would consider their spiritual needs as part of their medical care. Most patients, along with their healthcare professionals, struggle to understand how to use the spiritual side of healing.
Modern healthcare is based on science, so healthcare providers tend to see religion as an impediment to healing. When religious and spiritual faith are combined with the science of modern medicine, however, healthcare providers and patients have the most powerful tools for healing the world will ever know.
