Is it proper, or even helpful, to excuse sick and dying people from worship?

What is life worth when there is no God? What is it worth when there is?

Dr. William Toffler, MD, an Oregon physician, recognizes how important it is to listen for what is not being said. How well physicians listen and respond to their patients "has a profound effect... on their view of themselves and their inherent worth."

Other than perhaps Kumbaya, it's difficult to find a hymn or gospel song strongly emphasizing brotherly care -- especially ones that so powerfully creates a picture for us of carrying one another on this long journey of life.

Once upon a time not that long ago “everyone” knew with scientific certainty that human life began at conception.
