ss spotlight - Winter 2022,  health & justice

health & justice


Pippa Peppiatt has edited Spotlight for six years, thinking carefully about content, writing thoughtful articles, and encouraging both experienced nursing and midwifery writers and novices to contribute too. What big shoes I step into, as I now have the delight and privilege of taking over as Spotlight editor. Thank you, Pippa, for all your hard work.

Holistic care is fundamental to our professions. We're taught to look at the 'whole' person; body, mind, and soul. I would suggest that the same applies when considering God's character. In this edition of Spotlight, we are focussing on God's justice and how it relates to our health. But we cannot think about God being just without also knowing he is love. They are intrinsically linked. He is loving in his justice, and he is just in his loving.

We invite you to explore this with us as our writers grapple with difficult biblical texts on suffering, consider where justice is being done well in their workplaces, and where they long for it to be better. Why not join the conversation? Connect with one of our small, local groups or come to our first-ever in-person gathering for nurses and midwives on 20-21 April (see details on the back cover).

May God's justice flow through our nation's healthcare system, in our hospitals and in our community. Would it roll on like a river with righteousness, like a never-failing stream. (Amos 5:24) Amen!

PS. If you love writing or creating images and would like to contribute to future Spotlight magazines, then please contact bex.lawton@cmf.org.uk
