A Nursing Practice Model Based on Christ: The Agape Model.

Nine out of 10 American adults believe Jesus was a real person, and almost two-thirds have made a commitment to Jesus Christ. Research further supports that spiritual beliefs and religious practices influence overall health and well-being. Christian nurses need a practice model that helps them serve as kingdom nurses.

The importance of nursing as Christ would is vital for Christian nurses.
