Show Notes  Well … here we are in the 2nd week of our Christmas/Advent series titled Has God Become Irrelevant? In just 20 years church attendance has declined by 23%, for 70% attendance in in the year 2000 down to 47% in 2020. Although the are indeed many sociological and religious reasons for this decline, I believe that we have a grand misunderstanding of the nature of the divine Godhead. The all-too-common view of God is that of a judgmental punitive white male that will “get you” if you don’t toe the line. As a result of my studies of the Bible and a plethora of theologians is quite different. Last week we presented the idea that God is not an unattached stoic but instead demonstrates on multiple occasions the depth of his “feelings” like suffering and mourning and sadness, as well as exuberance and joy and satisfaction. Today I am talking with one of our most popular guests, life coach Lindsay Davis, about of the nature our human connection with divinity based on what is called in the Bible, Image of God. The theory is this: every single longing we have as human beings is either a direct or indirect reflection of how we are created. With that statement, let’s bring on Lindsay Davis to discuss with me the nature of God’s love as it pertains to sin and desire and godliness.   You can contact Lindsay at [email protected] Get Lindsay’s Path to Possibility Journal at http://thepathtopossibilityjournal.com/ For more with Charlie Hedges please visit www.thenextchapter.life

A healthcare system is defined by law and regulations that provide primary health services to its population through finances, services, and management. It consists of organizations whose primary goal is to promote, restore, and maintain health. Every country has its own different healthcare system and understanding what your country has will ensure you the quality of services you’d need. The American healthcare system deals with high prescription prices rather than the high quality of services. The cost is enormous plus its access is uneven. This is why we’ve invited Dr. David Wilcox in this episode, the author of the patients’ handbook of survival called, “How to Avoid Being a Victim of the American Healthcare System” to give us a brief education on what we should really know about our healthcare system.One of the primary works of nurses is to educate their clients especially when it comes to providing quality of service since nurses are also collaborators and educators to address their client’s needs. So consider asking a nurse to help you understand this and know what kind of service you actually need. Dr. David Wilcox’s knowledge in Executive Nursing Practice is extensive and he is an excellent source of valuable information regarding this. Listen to Episode 13 to get more insights. Memorable Quotes:It’s very important to educate yourself on the American Healthcare System because if you don’t, you’re at the mercy of this when you have to access it. - Dr. David WilcoxPhysicians will think about their income negatively if the bulk of their income today is from procedures.
