Could it be that in all our advanced medical knowledge we've lost the key to true health, the state of wholeness that was intended for mankind all along? In order to unlock the answers, author Larry D. Edwards, M.D., takes readers back to the beginning-to the Garden of Eden-where it all started." The expulsion of the first couple from a healthy environment resulted in each of us seeking health in an unhealthy world. God has redemptive rules that teach us how to avoid disease and promote health for ourselves, our families, and our communities. People with medical problems or diseases are found throughout the Bible. These redemptive rules and examples teach us how to cope with disease and how to achieve optimal health. This book will give you the biblical basis for wholeness in body, mind, and spirit.
