The mounting evidence of the interconnectedness of spirituality, health, and medicine suggests giving new attention to the healing ministry of Jesus. Through a fresh reading of the Gospel narratives, Bruce Epperly reveals the centrality of whole-person healing within Jesus' mission as teacher and social reformer and stresses that churches should seek to recover a healing ministry that touches both the spirit and the body. God's Touch traces the links between Jesus' approach to wholeness of mind, body, spirit, and relationships, and the practices of complementary and alternative medicine today.
Aaron had always thought that the Amish religion was the only way for him to get to heaven. After a rebellious youth, he had submitted to the Amish way by becoming a baptized member and following the Amish rules and traditions. But he wondered why he didn't have peace in his heart. For six long months he cried out to God for answers. Were his sins forgiven? What was missing in his life? Was he not following the Amish rules well enough? Was God still angry with him because of his sinful teenage years? God answered Aaron in a powerfully clear way; transforming his life and sustaining him with the peace he was searching for. "What He's done for me" is the first in a series of testimonies titled, "God's Touch Among the Amish." They represent personal journeys through tears and pain, stories from sincere hearts that searched earnestly for answers to questions like Aaron's. Each of their journeys speak of the faithfulness of God and His love toward those who search for truth and yield their lives fully into His hands.

In the course of the 20th century, a new worldview has arisen in Western society and culture that is defined in this book as "immanent mysticism." Several major philosophers are sensitive to such a sense of immanent mysticism. The same sensitivity is noticeable in the works of poets, painters, and other artists. It expresses the desire for transforming the way to meaningful living. A Taste of God shows that theological research programs are innovated by insights from aesthetics and studies of spirituality. The book's research indicates that contemporary Western culture requires a reframing of foundational theology. (Series: Nijmegen Studies in Theology - Vol. 3)
First Published in 2002. This book is about the way medieval authors wrote about union with God and how they used language that refers to the senses to articulate their ideas about how a person can be one with God. Rudy argues that such explicit concepts of the spiritual senses are not sharply distinct from the ideas implicit in broader usage of sensory language in theological writings. These ideas are significant in the history of Christian mysticism, because language that refers to the senses bears directly on several ideas that are central to ideas about union with God.
