GOD'S HEALTH PLAN - THE AUDACIOUS JOURNEY TO A BETTER LIFE A Principle Approach Study to Food, Health Care & Environmental Issues By Ricki Pepin A desperate Mom is willing to do a lot for a chronically ill child. After 12 years of disabling, undiagnosed sickness for her son, the author had all but lost hope. She began her own research to find relief for her child, unaware of the vast scope of the journey before her. Sickness carries not only physical, but spiritual roots. Health encompasses not just diet, but lifestyle choices, medical decisions and environmental issues. The solution to her son's dilemma came through prayer, study and application of seven biblical principles. God's health plan is about wholeness and restoration; adding life to your years, not just years to your life. It's not what you have to do. It's what you can do. God's health plan is not a destination. It's a daily journey - a sometimes audacious journey. Are you ready to begin yours? ."This book would be a valuable reference to anyone who wants to understand God's principles of health." - Bill Gothard, President - Institute in Basic Life Principles ."you will learn to better understand your God-designed body and how to care for it." - Dr. Bill Sears, widely known as "America's Pediatrician" Ricki Pepin is a wife, mother and grandmother. A former homeschool teacher to her children, she was introduced to the Principle Approach to education in 1991 and developed an enthusiastic vision for entire families to learn and apply the seven principles to every area of their lives. She does not set herself up as an expert on health, but rather equips the reader with the tools necessary to search out their own answers, as she did. Her excitement and hope are contagious as she spreads the message of personal and corporate stewardship practices that can change individual's lives and make this earth a healthier place for our great-great-grandchildren.

The "Monday" of everyday life inevitably comes after a restful Sunday ... fifty-two times a year. Just as the idyllic moves into the mundane, so a couple quickly moves from the honeymoon to the "work" of a marital relationship. Small or large, every marriage has rough spots. Fifty-Two Mondays acknowledges that the "everyday" or married life can begin to divide what God has put together. In this age of "irreconcilable differences" and "no-fault" divorce, couples are trading marriage for separation at a staggering rate. Regrettably, Christian couples are no different. Fortunately, God is still the Author of hope. You can enjoy the kind of marriage God intended with your mate, even on the "Mondays," because God has not left us in the dark. Instead, He provided the perfect guide to marital success in the Bible. Fifty-Two Mondays provides a fresh understanding of the biblical principles and practical application needed to fully enjoy life as "one." Dr. Marianne de Deugd has been a full-time Christian counselor for over twenty years and currently serves as the director of Royal Palm Ministries Counseling and Training Center in Fort Myers, Florida. She has obtained a doctorate of ministry in counseling, as well as master's degrees in counseling and biblical counseling. Dr. de Deugd is certified by the National Association of Nouthetic Counselors, Peacemaker Ministries, and Prison Fellowship. Marianne is a frequent speaker, seminar leader, and author. She draws extensively from the experience gained during thirty-four years of marriage to her husband, Bill. Marianne and Bill have four children, and have successfully navigated over 1700 Mondays.
