Covenantalk
CovenanTalk, Words That Set Us Free, tells how Gods Word uses the power of everyday language to lead us through lifes hard places. Although he was raised in a loving Christian home, the author reveals that, as a child of five years old, a visiting relative sexually abused him. Shelton eases the tension with humor and insight into the nature of Gods covenant love, as he recalls the impact the abuse had on his life. Eventually finding comfort and hope in his faith, the author takes the reader on a journey from the pastoral surroundings of his boyhood home to the breathtaking beauty of Appalachia and Yosemite. Using common, everyday words and heaven-spun expressions, Shelton extends hope to readers experiencing any sort of trauma. Originally written as a collection of essays, CovenanTalk has developed into a memoir that reveals the healing power of language.

Uncertain Suffering
On average, black Americans are sicker and die earlier than white Americans. Uncertain Suffering provides a richly nuanced examination of what this fact means for health care in the United States through the lens of sickle cell anemia, a disease that primarily affects blacks. In a wide ranging analysis that moves from individual patient cases to the compassionate yet distanced professionalism of health care specialists to the level of national policy, Carolyn Moxley Rouse uncovers the cultural assumptions that shape the quality and delivery of care for sickle cell patients. She reveals a clinical world fraught with uncertainties over how to treat black patients given resource limitations and ambivalence. Her book is a compelling look at the ways in which the politics of racism, attitudes toward pain and suffering, and the reliance on charity for healthcare services for the underclass can create disparities in the U.S. Instead of burdening hospitals and clinics with the task of ameliorating these disparities, Rouse argues that resources should be redirected to community-based health programs that reduce daily forms of physical and mental suffering.
