Finding Grace in the Face of Dementia (with John Dunlop)

When someone is diagnosed with dementia, the impact is often life-shattering, for both patients and loved ones. Watching someone you love lose their independence, and often their dignity can be devastating, especially since there is no cure. Dr. John Dunlop addresses the challenges of dealing with dementia from a distinctly Christian worldview in his book, Finding Grace in the Face of Dementia. Join us for this challenging, but also insightful, conversation.  Dr. John Dunlop has practiced medicine for almost 40 years, and is a specialist in gerontology—the care of the aging. He is currently on the faculty of Yale Medical School, and is the author of Finishing Well to the Glory of God, and Wellness for the Glory of God.   Read a transcript of this episode at: https://www.biola.edu/blogs/think-biblically/2019/finding-grace-in-the-face-of-dementia  ==========Think Biblically: Conversations on Faith and Culture is a podcast from Talbot School of Theology at Biola University, which offers degrees both online and on campus in Southern California.   Find all episodes of Think Biblically at: https://www.biola.edu/think-biblically.   To submit comments, ask questions, or make suggestions on issues you'd like us to cover or guests you'd like us to have on the podcast, email us at [email protected].
