QUICKENED:
"A
must read for all inspiring health care professionals!
Explore the relationship of mind, body and spirit as seen
through the eyes of a health professional grounded in science and
spirituality."
This book compares our physical bodies with the biblical
description of the universal church as the spiritual Body of Christ,
and recommends behaviors that promote health and wellness.
The message is that the QUICKENED Human Spirit is enthusiastic, excitable, active and
motivated, responding and connecting to God.
The QUICKENED soul is
focused and content, making appropriate decisions for the well being
of the spirit and body. The
QUICKENED body is one that is disciplined by the spirit and soul,
functioning in an optimal state of health and wellness.
Each chapter of the book has one page
of anatomy/physiology facts, several pages of biblical correlations,
followed by a few pages of pathology, then health and wellness facts.
It consists of twelve chapters, beginning with the cell as the
basic unit of structure of the human body compared to individual
believers as the basic unit of structure in the body of Christ.
In the next chapter, blood is to the human body what the word
God is to the Spirit and soul of believers and subsequently the Body
of Christ, supplying nourishment and potential for growth.
The universal church comes alive in the next ten chapters as
basic facts about body systems are aligned with spiritual principles,
expounding God’s plan for the church and describing internal
operations of the church that are sometimes misunderstood. This original concept provides a three dimensional insight into the human spirit, soul and body. The comparison of our physical bodies with the Body of Christ takes the reader from a familiar comfortable topic to one that is less familiar. It forms mental associations between basic concepts about our physical bodies with emotional and spiritual concepts. It personalizes the need for physical, emotional and spiritual growth, emphasizing that since our physical bodies are dependent on each cell functioning at its optimal level, so the universal church is dependent on each of us functioning at an optimal spiritual level. The onus for quality and fulfillment in this world and in the spiritual body of Christ (the church) is on the individual.
"I am elated that God inspired Stephanie Hughes to put
such a document together that parallels physical anatomy with the
spiritual Body of Christ. She
has used her insight as an RN to make it clear through the scriptures
what the Bible says regarding “Many members but one body,” and I
applaud her in this undertaking.
I now have greater insight to preach about the Body of Christ,
as will all ministers who read this book.
It will be a blessing to people in leadership positions and
every person who reads it. God
bless eternally." . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . .
"QUICKENED
Made Alive! Seeks to
enliven our spirit, soul, and body as Hughes bridges traditional,
biblical revelations and modern, scientific discoveries in the health
professions. With
exemplary knowledge of both the heavenly and earthly realms, she seeks
to pry open our spiritual depths while deepening our understanding of
anatomy and physiology, strengthening our faith, warming our hearts.
Hughes gives us – students and parents, teachers and
preachers – a timeless precious gift needed in today’s world." . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . .
"Brilliant analogy of physical man, Christianity and their
congruency."
