In this book, Ruth seeks to bring understanding and insight into what the human spirit is and how it functions. She seeks to answer questions such as: How can a human spirit be damaged? How could that affect us? And how can it be healed and restored? Does the condition of the human spirit affect the soul and the body, either for good or bad? Does the condition of the human spirit affect my relationship with God? Is my physical well-being dependent, to some extent, on the health of my spirit?
This revised and updated version of Healing the Human Spirit and Deeper Healing for the Human Spirit seeks to explore these and other relevant questions in the light of scripture and suggests ways of praying into and nurturing the human spirit in order for Jesus to bring healing to the whole person.
