Beschreibung
The title sums up both the book and the person. The Scripture tells about Jesus feeding a multitude of people. When they finished eating, the disciples picked up twelve baskets of broken pieces (John 6:13-14 PHILLIPS). That's what Jesus does--pick up broken pieces.
"I am one of those broken pieces," says Chuck, born the son of northern Indiana sharecroppers in the late 1930s. Reared in the Christian faith, caring for oneself and others was a vital and natural response to living out Jesus's call to "love one another as I have loved you," as well as foundational to Chuck's life throughout high school, the United States Army, college life, teaching, university and hospice chaplaincy, and parish ministry.
First, our soul is the very core of our being, and Soul Care for Caring Souls is a vignette of observations, memories, reflections, and lessons learned through a life of helping others to live at the soul care level--for both themselves and others. Second, it is a journey of hope. When hospice patients experiencing end-of-life reviews say, "I have really made a mess of my life," Chuck's response is, "Regardless of what your life has been, you can still finish well," as he leads them toward a personal relationship with Jesus Christ.
Third, Chuck is always concerned about his and others' eternal destiny; therefore, Soul Care for Caring Souls is a book about living out one's best regardless of the situation at hand. Included are topics such as "Soul Care Definition and Importance," "How to Get the Most Benefit from the Book," as well as exploring "Overcoming the Giants," "Roads We Have Never Traveled Before," "Remember the Best, Forgive the Rest," and many others.
Soul Care for Caring Souls is an excellent companion and resource for the very best in nurturing both your soul and the souls of others.
