Dr. Harold Koenig will speak at the upcoming pastoral care lecture at Moravian Theological Seminary on Thursday, October 29th. Koenig will address the topic of Religion, Spirituality and Health: The Spiritual Dimension of Patient Care.
Koenig is founder and co-director of the Center for Spirituality, Theology and Health at Duke University Medical Center, and has published extensively in the fields of mental health, geriatrics, and religion. His latest publication, Medicine, Religion and Health, was recently reviewed in Book Review Digest.
As someone who has felt that religious faith and a person’s spirituality influence people’s approach to illness and health, but who has been underwhelmed by the research with which I was familiar, this book is of great value.
