About this audiobook
Who invented veterinary medicine?
What should a Christian think about animals?
Are people better than animals?
Do animals have souls?
In an age of confusion about how we should relate to animals, this little book offers refreshing clarity. Whether you’re a veterinarian, interested in going to veterinary school, or just want to know more about the theology of human-animal relations, this book is for you!
Did you know Christians have been heavily involved in the discipline of veterinary medicine from its very start? By exploring their oft-forgotten stories and highlighting passages from the Bible that inspired them, we will see that they found firm backing from the words of Scripture.
What does the Bible say about veterinary medicine? Delve into the truth about what God thinks of His animal creation and learn how God means us to relate to the beasts. Follow in the forgotten footsteps of great Christian philosophers who fleshed out Biblical thinking about animals.

He has been writing over 20 years and is the author of works of varied genres. An article about the Crusades inspired him to start writing historically accurate stories – especially on topics that have become either distorted by political or social bias or have been forgotten by today’s general public. When not writing or repairing sick animals, Aaron enjoys reading, hiking, dancing with toddlers, yodeling, playing board games, and playing a variety of musical instruments. He travels to conventions with his publishing company, Post Tenebras Lux Books, which strives to improve lives and revitalize old truths through quality Christian stories and studies.

- Rating: 3 out of 5 stars3/5Improperly titled book, it’s more of a short overview of people who’ve influenced vet history, not really about theology. The first section of this book is way too long. However, the second and third sections are good and the best part. They should be longer than the first.
