To be faithful followers of Jesus, we must live spiritually healthy lives. But how do we do this? As Dr. Eubanks suggests, the prescription for spiritual health is: More of Him, less of me. Explaining biblical truths with a surgeon’s precision, this collection of daily devotionals aims to transform our spiritual lives more into the image of Christ. Incorporating Scripture with the wisdom of some of history’s greatest thinkers, writers and theologians, these devotionals help us achieve the spiritual health we need to become committed disciples of Christ.
In the poems of Rotations, Jason David Eubanks, M.D. chronicles the experience of a young medical student catapulted from the college dorms into a world where he grapples with the exponential growth required to become a doctor who understands the art and science of medicine. As he details moments as varied as clipping the toenails of a disabled veteran, watching a mother weep over her child’s burned face, and talking with a motorcycle amputee about the joys of the ride, he captures with graphic detail what patients teach doctors about sickness, suffering and the dying process. Displaying empathy, emotional candor, and self-effacing revelations, Dr. Eubanks probes with surgical precision the depths of the human spirit persecuted by disease and personal disaster to find, in the end, the dignity life has to offer us all.
