Nutrition For The Body & The Soul

The word theology tends to lead people to think that it is only meant for seminarian scholars; however, the word speaks for itself by the sole definition of "the study of God's Word." Theology 101 takes a fresh look at God's Power, Character, Love, Nature, and what the finished work of Christ meant to the world in bite size portions. It offers scripturally based truths of some of the riches of His Divine Grace that include answers to thought provoking questions such as what is predestination; who are the chosen; the called, and the elect. The author uses everyday language to explain what it means to be justified, reconciled, forgiven, and offers a clear and easy to understand explanation of why practicing merited grace contradicts Christ's finished work on the cross.

Author, Christine Prescott "Spiritual Nutrition"

I was born in McMinnville, Oregon and lived in Portland, Oregon, La Mirada, California and McMinnville, Oregon. My career dream was to be a geologist. My B.S. is from the University of Oregon. GO DUCKS!! Although I nearly graduated with a degree in English, I changed at the last minute to Elementary Education. A week after graduation I was married and we moved to Coos Bay, Oregon. I was a substitute teacher until beginning law school in 1975. I attended Lewis & Clark Northwestern School of Law in Portland, Oregon. I found law school to be an exercise in swimming upstream. (Really? Help people? Loud laughter.)

At times it felt like swimming in a sewer. After several months of researching whether “Christian lawyer” was an oxymoron for me, I was invited to share an office in Cedar Mill, Oregon. For the next ten years I practiced community law (wills, family law, landlord/tenant, business). My favorite area was criminal defense, especially trial work. I also worked for 2 ½ years as a public defender.

In 1978 I was called to prison chaplaincy. During seminary, I knew that I was being called to pastoral ministry. (NO. No way.) I did a year of volunteer/clinical work at the Multnomah County Detention Center. And I accepted the call to pastoral ministry.

During the next 12 years, I served four churches as pastor in Oregon, Indiana and Montana. I had many opportunities to speak at local, state and national gatherings.

I also worked as a cashier at Meijer and a Reader’s Advisory Librarian in Carmel, Indiana. I completed my first quilt and played violin in the Carmel Symphony.

I currently have a job that uses all my gifts and experience: hospital chaplain. I know every time I go to work I am going to make a difference in someone’s life.

My volunteer work includes being a trustee on the Missoula Public Library board. I helped start the Church Relations team for Habitat for Humanity, Missoula. I love books and am a member of the Missoula Calligrapher’s Guild.

And now, I am an author. I plan to have as much fun as I can learning how to publicize my book, Spiritual Nutrition: Healthy Eating for the Christian Heart, which will include, I hope, a speaking ministry. I am at work on a follow-up book, Spiritual Bodybuilding: When You're Ready for More.

Spiritual Nutrition, The Book

Spiritual Nutrition: Healthy Eating for the Christian Heart focuses on the development of healthy spiritual habits by identifying five core spiritual nutrients and comparing them to their physical counterparts:

•Prayer is like water-vital for life and essential for survival.
•Bible study is like protein necessary for growth.
•Christian fellowship is like carbohydrates-gives us energy.
•Worship is like healthy fats-helps keep our hearts healthy,
•Thinking on good things is like vitamins-necessary for helping the other nutrients work effectively.

"Just as the flab in our physical bodies will only go away through consistently healthy eating and exercise, our spiritual flab can only be removed through a good spiritual diet and exercise that becomes a part of our lives every day".
