Christ, who went about doing good, healing all that were oppressed of the devil, showed that true evangelism comprehends ministry to physical needs as well as the spiritual. This booklet of selections from the pen of Ellen White, is a call to medical evangelism for the church. The 58th chapter of Isaiah lays upon the church the responsibility of caring for the sick and needy, and represents such service as true worship of God.

This book presents the most effective method of combining the elements of a healthful lifestyle and the Christian gospel. Jesus saves your body as well as your soul. Discover the principles of divine behavior change. These principles have activated sedentary church congregations into a high level of health ministry to their community.

Jesus' admonition to "go and make disciples of all nations" (Matthew 28:19, NIV) resonates in the hearts of those who love Him supremely. Every individual must be given the opportunity to choose between life and death. This volume is a call to action-a plea for believers to work for their Savior by bringing the gospel to the millions of people in the city, strategies, methods, selecting and training workers, and lessons from Scripture. Yes, the work will require much effort, especially in our day and age. But Ellen G. White doesnÆt mince words: ôDo not hover over the churches to repeat over and over again the same truths to the people, while the cities are left in ignorance and sin, unwarned and unlabored forö (The Upward Look, p. 274). Book jacket.

Healthful Living was originally published by the Medical Missionary Board, Battle Creek, Michigan, under the title Instruction Relating to the Principles of Healthful Living.So popular when it first came out that it became necessary to come out with a second and then a third edition the first year.We have reproduced this 1898 third edition which also contained two additional chapters, God in Nature and The Spirit Filled Life.In the third edition an appendix of parallel Scripture references was included. This Scripture referenced appendix will be found exceedingly helpful in making clear to the mind of the reader the fact that the principles presented in this work are not mere human inventions; but are a part of the divine order appointed for the human family at the beginning, and which is to be restored when all things are made new.Wherever it has been received, this book has been recognized as a veritable storehouse of seed thoughts relating to the great practical themes with which it deals.

This book has been around a while. Since it was first published, a lot of other books about health have come and gone. Some of them have been bigger than this one, but none of them have ever been better. Perhaps you have noticed the explosion in diet and exercise publications. Today it is obvious that the pursuit of health and fitness is more than just a quick fad. Looking and feeling good isn't optional, for many people these days, it's a high lifestyle priority. "The Ministry of Healing" is a book that crusades for total fitness, not just physical fitness because we are human beings and are more than just bodies. This book speaks to the needs of the whole person, body, mind and spirit. For a whole lot less than one visit to the Doctor, this classic on health will tell you how to manage stress, get well and prevent disease while feeling vibrantly alive. - The True Medical Missionary.
