Compassion as a Subversive Activity: Illness, Community, and the Gospel of Mark - Softcover

 
9781561012794: Compassion as a Subversive Activity: Illness, Community, and the Gospel of Mark

Synopsis

David Urion, a pediatric neurologist, contemplates the miraculous healings in the Gospel of Mark as subversive political acts of power that restore the wholeness of the community. The kingdom of God that is at hand is just this: the poor, the sick, the outcaste. Their integration into the community restores creation to the radical inclusiveness with which it began and that heals us all.

Review

Dr. Urion intersperses his musings and study of Jesus' miracles in the gospel of Mark with true stories from his practice. Stories of children with incurable neurological conditions, their families who try to cope, compassionate nurses, his own medical mentors, and many others add a real-life element to this book that remains with the reader long after the book is closed.--Pattie Reitz "Armchair Interviews "
