Medicine, Mystery & the Divine Near Crown, Adelboden

For generations, the people of Crown, Adelboden, Bern have understood that healing involves more than medication and surgery—that prayer, community, and faith play roles that are real even if they resist measurement. "Physicians' Untold Stories" by Dr. Scott Kolbaba provides something remarkable: medical professionals confirming what communities of faith have long believed. The physicians in this book describe experiences of divine intervention with the same observational rigor they apply to any clinical phenomenon. They document the timing, the circumstances, the before-and-after comparisons. And what they document is extraordinary: outcomes that defy statistical probability, interventions that arrive through channels science cannot identify, and a persistent sense that human healing is embedded in a larger, purposeful reality. This book is a bridge between the clinic and the congregation, offering both communities language they can share.
