Is modern “healthcare” really making us healthy? Why are depression, anxiety, obesity, and chronic disease exploding—while we spend $5.3 trillion a year trying to fix them?

In this eye-opening episode of Here We Stand, Dr. David Shin sits down with Weimar University’s president, Dr. Neil Nedley to confront a sobering reality: what we call “healthcare” is often just disease management. Drawing on clinical experience from the NEWSTART and Depression and Anxiety Recovery programs, this conversation explores a radically biblical, deeply scientific vision of whole-person restoration—body, mind, and soul. From the frontal lobe and neuroplasticity to spiritual formation and freedom of choice, this episode makes a bold claim: transformation is possible, but only when we stop compartmentalizing health and recover an ethical, Christ-centered framework for healing.

In this powerful discussion, you’ll learn:

• Why “disease care” can stabilize people without truly restoring them—and what a real healthcare model should include.
• How depression/anxiety and physical illness reinforce each other (sleep, fatigue, hypertension, and more) and why treating one in isolation falls short.
• The difference between Eastern-style mindfulness and biblically grounded “Western meditation,” including the role of ethics and the frontal lobe.
• Practical pathways to transformation: NEWSTART’s 8 remedies, addressing biochemistry and thought patterns, and even a smartphone reset to rebuild focus and emotional control.
