About this audiobook

Health, Healing and Faith is a concise yet resonant work in which Russell H. Conwell explores the interdependence of bodily health, moral discipline, and religious confidence. Written in the earnest, exhortatory style characteristic of late nineteenth- and early twentieth-century Protestant uplift literature, the book blends practical counsel with spiritual reflection. Conwell situates healing not merely in medicine, but in the ordered life of faith, hope, right thinking, and purposeful action. Conwell, a Baptist minister, lecturer, lawyer, Civil War veteran, and founder of Temple University, was best known for his celebrated lecture Acres of Diamonds. His career was devoted to self-improvement, public service, and the democratization of opportunity. These commitments inform the book's central conviction: that human beings possess latent strength, awakened through faith and disciplined living, which can transform suffering into moral and spiritual growth. This volume is recommended for readers interested in American religious thought, the history of mind-body healing, and the practical spirituality of the Progressive Era. While modern readers may approach some claims critically, the book remains valuable as a document of its time and as an inspiring meditation on resilience, belief, and the pursuit of wholeness.
