Nursing keeps changing. The role of the nurse grew out of a
Christian understanding of the human person as created in the image
of God, and viewed the body as a living unity and the "temple of
the Holy Spirit" (1 Cor 6:19). Contemporary nursing, however, is
increasingly characterized by a diminished understanding of
personhood. The impact on patient care has proven confusing and
discouraging to many nurses. In the newly revised and expanded
Called to Care: A Christian Worldview for Nursing, Judith Allen
Shelly and Arlene B. Miller define nursing for today based on a
historically and theologically grounded understanding of the
nurse's call: Nursing is a ministry of compassionate care for the
whole person, in response to God's grace toward a sinful world,
which aims to foster optimum health (shalom) and bring comfort in
suffering and death for anyone in need. Called to Care asserts that
nursing is a vocation, giving nurses a framework for understanding
their mission and living out their calling: service to God through
caring for others.
