Climate change is the single largest health threat facing the world today. The purpose of the current article is to help nurses of faith more deeply explore a Catholic Christian response to climate change. Christian moral justice teachings from the Catholic Church's extensive social teaching efforts, including the far-reaching papal encyclicals Laudato Si and Laudato Deum by Pope Francis, and now championed by Pope Leo XIV, are explored.
Nursing education continues to face the challenge of a faculty shortage. Many educators leave their current workplace due to an unsupportive work environment. Creating a healthier, more connected academic culture is essential for faculty retention. The implementation of faculty mentorship programs can foster professional growth, build supportive relationships, and promote mutual respect. In Christian nursing programs, mentorship serves as a vital tool for faculty development while reflecting biblical principles that promote a culture of compassion and care.
CREATION Life principles promoting whole-person care form the framework for AdventHealth University's online nursing education programs. The framework, based on religious beliefs and values of the Seventh-Day Adventist Church, outlines elements of optimal well-being achieved through a faith-based, wholistic approach. The eight principles are choice, rest, environment, activity, trust in God, interpersonal relationships, outlook, and nutrition, based on the creation story in the book of Genesis. Nursing faculty members model the principles and students' assignments are evaluated based on the inclusion of the principles. Employee and end-of-course evaluations show high acceptance and satisfaction.
Compassion is a core factor in quality nursing care. As definitions of compassion vary depending on historical, societal, religious, and geographical factors, this concept analysis illustrates contextual information and improves clarity in using and measuring this concept within nursing practice. Walker and Avant's (2019) concept analysis method is used to provide a structured examination of compassion in nursing, differentiating compassion from empathy. A biblical perspective of compassion is described and examples from Scripture are offered along with practical nursing implications. Additionally, ethical considerations, ancient evidence, an evolutionary view, and cultural and religious nuances are explored.
Nursing students are vulnerable to experiencing high levels of stress that can lead to decreased academic success, burnout, and leaving the profession. However, students can combat stress and burnout by cultivating personal resilience. An evidence-based practice project among junior- and senior-level Bachelor of Science in Nursing students at a private Christian college explored the impact of a one-hour resilience education module using the R.E.S.T. Framework on self-reported resilience. Improvements in resilience scores (CD-RISC-10) from pre- to post-education and at two-month follow-up suggest that resilience education and the R.E.S.T. Framework can support nursing student resilience.
This study explored the relationship between burnout and spirituality among nurses working in an academic medical center (N = 408). Negative correlations were revealed between burnout and feeling deep inner peace or harmony (-0.35, p < .001), guided by God in daily activities (-0.24, p < .0001), God's love directly (-0.25, p < .0001), and God's love through others (-0.24, p < .0001). Feeling God's presence, connection to all life, strength, comfort in spirituality, and expressing gratitude for blessings exhibited moderate negative correlations (-0.21 to -0.19, p < .05). Findings support that nurses experiencing higher levels of spirituality report lower burnout levels.

In the high-pressure environment of healthcare, nurses may carry emotional, spiritual, and physical burdens. Although nurses are trained to assess and care for the needs of patients, they can neglect self-assessment and self-care, leading to over-extension, compassion fatigue, spiritual depletion, and burnout. Sustainable caregiving requires a shift from task-oriented performance to Christ-centered presence. Self-compassion and spiritual renewal are essential to thriving in ministry and clinical practice and avoiding burnout.
