The Cancer Free Church: Identifying, Diagnosing, and Treating Destructive Attacks Against the Body of Christ (Paperback) (ISBN-13: 9798891302471)

While preparing for ministry, it never occurred to me that I would one day become the pastor of a church that was sick with cancer. The worst part about being sick is not knowing you are sick until the sickness is terminal. The Cancer-Free Church is a real-life success story of a church going from the diagnosis of cancer to complete remission. The Cancer-Free Church appeals to leaders of all kinds who have a desire to be a part of a healthy organization. The real-life story of a pastor's call and commitment to go through the process of surgery and rehabilitation to get to a place of spiritual health will inspire pastors, coaches, leaders in organizations, seminary students, and even athletes to be patient during the difficult times and watch God fight off the cancer that kills the body. This book's aim is to encourage the leaders who are on the verge of quitting and help them see that the pain that they are now enduring is pale in comparison to the beauty to be revealed through the pain. It is my aim to convince you that you will ring the bell of completion of chemotherapy with the hopes that you will hear the words, "You no longer have cancer."
