Disproving the view that counseling is either anti-biblical or merely “psychobabble,” and warning against the extremes of New Age-type mysticism, Divine Recycling offers a multidimensional therapy which treats the individual according to his or her own unique needs. From a psychology of meaning, to physical treatment of the body and attention to the spiritual needs common to mankind, Divine Recycling emphasizes that diversity. Cutting-edge issues like brain plasticity and the biochemical results of exercise on memory are included. For some this will be a self-help book. For others this book will offer a new approach to psychotherapy as a God-given tool in helping people who are hurting or who simply want greater growth in their lives.

Heroes of the faith whose names and deeds are cited in Hebrews eleven are called persons of faith of whom the world was not worthy. But such persons of faithwere not limited to biblical times. They have lived through the centuries. They triumph today.

Ranging from the time of Hudson Taylor, pioneer missionary to China, to Ruth Bell Graham, the wife of evangelist Billy Graham, Found Faithful portrays some of the greatest persons of faith of the last one hundred and fifty years.

Theologian Dr. Vernon Grounds calls this writing the “creme de la creme of devotional literature.” My choice of who to include was very personal and simple: I have been blessed by these people from early childhood on until now. Some of the people in Found Faithful have been almost forgotten. Others have not ever been taken seriously enough. All deserve a renewed focus. Their balance of body, mind, and spirit, along with their emphasis on practical living and spiritual depth, will, I pray, be encouraging as well as enlightening to all of you who read this book.

Many people enter my counseling office with an apologetic, “If I were a better Christian I wouldn’t be here.” Charles H. Spurgeon, often called the “Prince of Preachers,” probably the greatest preacher of the 19th Century, shows how much our emotions tie in with our body and our mind and puts the issue of emotional pain into the arena of humanness rather than sin. This book deals with subjects like depression and loneliness along with other emotions.

The subject of this book, Amy Carmichael, has inspired the lives of many great people with her books written in the South of India while she was rescuing abused children. Her writing lifts you up when you are down and challenges you when you are tempted to give up.
