The demands of the twenty-first century have led to the neglect of certain essential responsibilities in the life of a Christian. One of those is the visitation and care of the sick in our congregations. This book is designed to instruct and motivate pastors, church leaders, and other care-giving Christians through the counsel of the heroes of church history, to recapture the practice of visiting the sick. This is accomplished by considering three specific areas: first, our commitment to the theological as we consider how most effectively to care for their souls; second, our commitment to the pastoral, which instructs us how to proceed with wisdom and discernment in the variety of circumstances we will face; third, our commitment to the practical so that the manner in which we care for the sick will help, not hinder, our effort to communicate biblical truth to them.
