Bibliography – The Green Healers Apprentice

“A wrong worldview will lead to wrong conclusions about our lives and the world we live in. Trying to resolve physical problems by spiritual means is not always the best approach, although God can miraculously intervene. Trying to resolve spiritual problems by physical means will never work. Taking a pill to help cure your body may be commendable, but taking a pill to cure the soul is deplorable. A biblical worldview will see the need for the pastor as well as the doctor.

If you go back about 300 years in Western culture, you will find that the worldview was quite different. In western European universities it was assumed that theology was “the queen of the sciences.” Everything was tested by its agreement with the truth revealed in the Bible, whereas today the concept of revealed truth is not even admissible in most university settings. It was assumed back then that this is a created world and that God speaks both through His creation and through His revealed Word. The physical world could be understood only when it was seen as God’s work and as a part of His revelation to us.

With the Enlightenment came strong philosophical voices denying revelation. They said man did not get significance from a relationship to some supernatural person or power but from the fact that he was a reasoning being. Then the scientific revolution added the concept that the scientific method was the only reliable method of finding truth, and that divine revelation was secondary or insignificant. Still later the theory of evolution was added to this philosophical mix, and, since the world was assumed to have evolved rather than been created, we could no longer see it as a channel of God’s revelation.” – Anderson and Warner authors of Spiritual Warfare.

We are spoiled for choices when it comes to information regarding wellness. And we’ve made good use of that as you’ll see from the extensive bibliography used for this learning program.

Side Note: If you have a Biblical Perspective there is no single book or website that will give you all the answers you need, but if I have to recommend just one for starters – apart from the Bible that is – it will be Greater Health God’s Way by Stormie Omartian. It is one of the few that takes a Biblical worldview and it was the inspiration for the Holistic Health Quest.

Books with an asterisk * have a Biblical worldview.

We are slowly but surely adding links to the resources in this Bibliography. It’s a tedious process, so please be patient. Use Amazon and Google to help you find books that may interest you.
