In this extended book review of Hostility to Hospitality: Spirituality and Professional Socialization within Medicine published in the Christian Journal for Global Health, ISCAST President, Alan Gijsbers, summarises and critiques an important book exploring the need for a larger place for spirituality in the delivery of health care.
He agrees with the need but critiques some of reasons put forward to meet that need. For Alan the secular world need not be a hostile place for spirituality, but it calls for wisdom and winsomeness in the way we promote the gospel.

According to Ian, this "begs for fuller attention by those concerned with stewardship of God’s creation in its providential aspects for human beings."

A work of calmness and clarity, Thoughtful Theism speaks directly to our age’s uneasy relationship to religion. It lives up to its title by modelling an honesty, candour and rigorous commitment to rationality rarely seen in the public square. Fr Andrew Younan displays an impressive ability to make a calm, positive case for theism.
