But rather than retell familiar miracles, he instead examines where social stigma, isolation, injustice, and spiritual suffering intersect with physical care. How do we make sense of illness for which there is no cure? How do we respond to needs that medicine alone cannot meet? Through nine compelling contemporary stories inspired by Scripture, Rozier examines the emotional and ethical complexity of topics such as addiction, mental health stigma, elder loneliness, social safety nets, and the crisis of preventable disease. He suggests that the biggest barrier to having the health care system we deserve is not a lack of practical expertise but an inability to imagine what is possible, and he shows how religious insights might guide us toward more responsive, compassionate systems of care.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eThis book invites readers, both religious and secular alike, to imagine a future where prevention is prioritized, care is communal, and wellness includes the whole person. With theological insight and public health expertise, Rozier helps us see that health care is not merely an industry; it's a reflection of our deepest values and collective responsibility.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch3\u003eAuthor Biography\u003c\/h3\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cb\u003eMichael Rozier\u003c\/b\u003e is an associate professor of health management and policy and vice provost at Loyola University Chicago.\u003c\/p\u003e\n            \u003cdiv\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eNumber of Pages:\u003c\/strong\u003e 200\u003c\/div\u003e\n            \u003cdiv\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eDimensions:\u003c\/strong\u003e 0.55 x 8.52 x 5.55 IN\u003c\/div\u003e\n            \u003cdiv\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003ePublication Date:\u003c\/strong\u003e May 12, 2026\u003c\/div\u003e\n            ","brand":"BooksCloud","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":48626471993593,"sku":"9781421454436","price":46.91,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":false}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0789\/2782\/3097\/files\/gp6V2A6K8H9781421454436.webp?v=1783045529","url":"https:\/\/bookscloud.io\/products\/growing-our-moral-imagination-approaching-health-care-with-a-new-faith-based-vision-paperback","provider":"BooksCloud Book Dropshipping","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
