In this episode, Dr. Betters answers the question, "I am 62 years old and last year my husband and I decided it was time to move my mother into our home to care for her. You see, she has Alzheimer’s disease and really started declining quickly. I want to take care of my mom, I mean, she raised me and was always there for me, but lately she is getting worse and worse; she barely knows who I am and her “sun-setting” is becoming more aggressive and filled with anger toward anyone around her. I know it is just the disease talking, but it is breaking my heart as I can’t help but take some of it personally. I’m starting to think we might need to look into a facility to put her in, but is that abandoning my responsibilities, abandoning my mom? Am I being selfish?"
Dr. Chuck Betters, drawing from his own faith struggles—especially the tragic loss of his sixteen-year-old son, Mark—has assisted countless individuals facing similar challenges over more than five decades of ministry. He finds hope in the belief that God is sovereign and can be trusted.
In a world filled with brokenness and despair, "Ask Dr. Betters" is a unique video forum where Dr. Betters and his guests provide clear, biblical answers to life’s pressing questions about suffering and living by faith in a broken world.
