The Physiology of Hope
Advances in medical science have led to longer, more productive lives. Deadly diseases that once ravaged entire populations have largely disappeared from the earth. There seems to be no end to the possibilities of modern medicine. Yet medicine offers only a limited hope of longer life; it cannot offer the hope of eternal life. It holds out the hope of less pain and suffering, but it cannot eliminate either. The mortality rate for humanity is still 100 percent. At some point we all must face death. Is there hope beyond what our medical science offers? This timely book by a healthcare professional and pastor presents a clear biblical perspective on hope in the face of death. The Physiology of ...
Facing a Terminal Illness with Jesus
All of us will face death one day. The human mortality rate is 100 percent. Yet, death is always untimely. The dreaded words from the doctor: "Sorry, but you only have six months to live" never comes at the right moment. Who ever thought so much could change so quickly? In Facing a Terminal Illness with Jesus, author Christopher Bogosh, R.N., B.Th. applies his years of end-of-life care experience to write this book that is saturated with biblically-oriented practical advice, guidance, and comfort for those struggling with a terminal illness. He writes: "The goal of this book is to provide answers for some of your questions, in the hope that you may find comfort and guidance in the midst of this difficult trial."
Pastoral Care and Western Medicine
Western medicine is not only a science that has relieved much suffering in the world; it is also a philosophy that stands contrary to biblical Christianity. Medical science can offer physical help, but it cannot answer the most profound questions asked by the suffering and dying: Why am I sick? Why did I contract this disease? Why am I dying? Only the Bible offers adequate and satisfying answers to such questions. Author Christopher Bogosh navigates the waters of modern medical practice and its underlying assumptions and presents biblically informed answers to questions about illness, disease, death, and dying. Here is valuable guidance for pastors on becoming part of the healthcare team, co...
Compassionate Jesus
In an age of scientific advancement and specialization, many Christians turn to medical professionals to direct them in stewardship of their bodies. While in many ways the advancements of medical science are a blessing, they are also largely driven by a secular mindset that, though it appears compassionate and to proclaim hope, is actually often subversive of genuine compassion and our hope in Christ. In Compassionate Jesus, Christopher Bogosh calls Christians to examine the pervasive “prolong life at all costs” mentality against biblical principles of care and compassion that are rooted in Christ. This is a call to enter into medical situations trusting in God’s sovereign care and the power of prayer. It is hoped that this book will begin a long-needed discussion among Christians about how we relate to modern medicine, encouraging us to allow the gospel to inform the way we engage the healthcare system. Table of Contents: 1. Compassionate Health Care and God’s Redemptive Plan 2. The Science of Hope 3. Medical Science: Biblically Informed 4. God’s Medicine: Prayer in the Spirit 5. Hospice Butterflies

Dying and Death
Can any good come from thinking about death? Our natural tendency is to answer that question no! But what if our meditation on death was informed by a theological understanding of death, a recognition of the comfort Jesus’s death affords Christians, and ethical guidance for dealing with death in these complicated days of modern medical developments? Rather than being morbidly unhelpful, authors Joel R. Beeke and Christopher W. Bogosh contend that meditating on dying and death can be profitable, even necessary, for us. Are you prepared to say that your death will be “gain” (Phil. 1:21)? Table of Contents: Part One: The Basics 1. Dying Depicted: Hope in the Old Testament 2. Dying Demysti...

Biblical Medicine
In Compassionate Jesus, Christopher Bogosh showed us how to rethink our approach to modern medicine. Now, he takes the next step and develops a Christian worldview for medical science. Political, historical, philosophical, medical, and biblical, Biblical Medicine exposes the underlying assumptions governing modern healthcare, it dismantles them, and then it moves on to show how the timeless message of Holy Scripture is sufficient for medical science today.
Future of Everything
All of us think about the end times. When we reflect on what will happen not only when we die but when this present age ends, some combination of ideas, images, hopes, and fears floods our minds. In The Future of Everything, William Boekestein encourages us to allow our thoughts on the end times to be guided by God’s Word. While combing the Scriptures to find direction related to subjects like death, the millennial kingdom, the return of Christ, the resurrection, judgment, heaven, and hell, Boekestein helps us cultivate a vision for the future that impacts our walk before God’s face today. Table of Contents: Part 1: Introducing Eschatology 1. Why Should I Study the End Times? 2. How Can I Understand Prophecy? Part 2: Personal Eschatology 3. We’re All Going to Die 4.
