Written by a three times cancer survivor, this book is a must-read for anyone facing and fighting cancer as well as for their caregivers. Called from a scientific background into Christian ministry, Philip has the ideal background to furnish valuable factual advice and spiritual counsel to his readers. He shares candidly about how God helped him overcome malignant melanoma and prostate cancer and about his present struggles against multiple myeloma. Philip sees no conflict between receiving medical treatment and exercising faith in God for healing. His book is packed with faith-building encouragement and will empower and inspire the reader to fight cancer and win. Endorsement: If there's one thing that Philip achieves in his book, it's giving hope! In dealing with cancer, hope is certainly not a luxury but a necessity. He also answers some very pertinent questions. Well done! -Leonard Stone, Senior Pastor: Maranatha Community Church; National Leader of The Christian Network (TCN), South Africa. I enjoyed reading Philip's book - he has been my patient ever since he was diagnosed with Multiple Myeloma in 2017. I have witnessed first-hand his courageous battles against this disease which he refers to as his "Goliath." He shares valuable insights and medically sound advice out of the wealth of his personal experience. I believe that what he writes will be a source of encouragement and hope to any cancer sufferer. -Dr Sarita Retief, Oncologist, Nelspruit Mediclinic.

Recently retired from pastoral ministry, he is now pursuing a career as a Christian writer. As a person who has thrice survived cancer, he feels called to encourage and coach others fighting the disease. Philip and Desirée have been happily married for 42 years.

Dr. Keith Block is at the global vanguard of innovative cancer care. As medical director of the Block Center for Integrative Cancer Treatment in Evanston, Illinois, he has treated thousands of patients who have lived long, full lives beyond their original prognoses.

How are we as Christians called to respond when cancer invades our lives, whether our own bodies or those of our friends and family? On the eve of his own cancer surgery, John Piper writes about cancer as an opportunity to glorify God. With pastoral sensitivity, compassion, and strength, Piper gently but firmly acknowledges that we can indeed waste our cancer when we don't see how it is God's good plan for us and a hope-filled path for making much of Jesus. Don't Waste Your Cancer is for anyone touched by a life-threatening illness. It first appeared as an appendix in Suffering and the Sovereignty of God. Repackaged and republished, it will serve as a hope-giving resource for healthcare workers, pastors, counselors, and others caring for those with cancer and other serious illnesses. The booklets are also available in packs of ten.
