Faith in the ER: Inspirational True Stories from an Emergency Room Doctor - Paperback

by Douglas D. Brunette (Author)

How do you rationalize the occurrence of human tragedy and the simultaneous existence of a benevolent God?

During his 36 years working as an emergency physician in an urban, level 1 trauma center, Dr. Douglas Brunette has witnessed and experienced firsthand the entire spectra of human emotion, illness and injury. Daily unrelenting tragedies over many years resulted in his loss of faith and a belief in God.
