When Healthcare Hurts
When Healthcare Hurts is an evidence-based, critical look at the potential pitfalls and opportunities of global health volunteerism. Greg Seager, Founder, and CEO of Christian Health Service Corps, asks thought-provoking questions about global health projects that can illuminate areas of needed improvement and uncover some of our own harmful biases.

Triumph
Don’t let family history set the course for your future. Triumph was strategically designed to help persons dealing with chronic illnesses and those that care about them understand the facets of living with life-altering conditions with faith, fortitude, and mastery. Gregory S. Works, a two-time kidney transplant recipient, helps others face their challenges head-on, and live a victorious life in spite of living with the pain and discomfort of his or her chronic illness. Gregory uses statistics, his own experiences, and comical anecdotes to help readers understand the complexity of kidney disease. He demonstrates how faith can become the cornerstone to triumph over the challenge whether kidney disease or some other life altering event. Challenges are inevitable, but the decisions that we make to face them or flee from will make a profound difference in our ability to overcome or be overtaken by trials, pain, and suffering in our lives.
