Show Notes

Jeremiah 29:11 says, "For I Know The Plans I Have For You," Declares The Lord, "Plans To Prosper You And Not To Harm You, Plans To Give You Hope And A Future." On today's episode, titled "Amazing Grace At The Front Line", Dr. Gayle Galan, MD and her husband Karl, with a "K" discuss God's all sufficient grace during these difficult times of this COVID-19 Pandemic.  Dr. Gayle works in the emergency room of her local hospital, actually, the front line.  We discuss her story, along with her husband Karl, whom is 88 years old, as she battled this invisible enemy.  Additionally, on today's episode we discuss the negative health consequences of this national shutdown which has caused: an increase of 600% of suicide hotline phone calls; an increase of 300-600% of liquor sales; an increase in cigarette sales; family relationships have become frayed.  Dr. Gold, MD with over 500 physicians noted that millions of casualties of a continued shutdown will be hiding in plain sight, but they will be called alcoholism, homelessness, suicide, heart attack, stroke, or kidney failure.  In youths it will be called financial instability, unemployment, despair, drug addiction, unplanned pregnancies, poverty , and abuse.  With these severe consequences of this pandemic causing a significant amount of distress.  How do we deal with it?  Dr. Gayle, Karl and the work of Dr. Ken Matto inform our listeners what they can do from a biblical viewpoint in dealing with "stress".
