The Next Chapter with Charlie
Stumbling and Bumbling Along Oh my… This podcast regarding the birth narrative of Jesus is raw. Filled with ah’s and uh’s and so’s. Longer periods of silence. Very “not professional.” And yet it is filled with truth about the humble ways of the Divine. God is not so much interested in pretty presentations as He is in powerful truths underlying the presentations. It is about the message and not the medium, because the actual medium is the Spirit of God. She grabs the message and places it into the hearts of the listeners. That means the message is not about me, it is about...

info_outline #341 Caitlyn Cogan Doemner: Social Justice Begins with YouThe Next Chapter with Charlie
Show Notes On today’s show my very special guest, Caitlyn Cogan Doemner, and I discuss some ideas that have floating around in my mind for a bit. Ideas about a core philosophy of love, kind of in line with the words of Jesus about loving your neighbor… ... only I want to be rather specific when my neighbor is the one struggling at the bottom level of Maslow’s hierarchy—those with access to water, food, shelter, warmth, and clothing. Those I refer to as the poor and disenfranchised. Here’s how I began my latest blog written the day after the election...
info_outline #340 Terry Hershey: The Ordinary is the Hiding Place of the HolyThe Next Chapter with Charlie
Show Notes Well, we’re finally back with our dear friend Terry Hershey. The topic we will chat about today is the role of the ordinary—the everyday—in the lexicon of spirituality. For most of us, the idea of the Divine is often thought of a special, unique, and oft times spectacular occurrences. When the truth is God is most frequently found in ordinary occasions of work and play and familiar relationships. The word “epiphany” comes to mind which we understand “seeing God” in the miraculous or the special. But the dictionary definition simply means a...

Show Notes Today we revisit Wendy Hooper Ross to conclude our show on the subject of Understanding Fear. Wendy is an expert in residential real estate (as you discovered in Part One last week), but it is also obvious that Wendy is an expert on life, from both the thinking and feeling perspectives.

We discussed, in depth, the self-fulfilling negative downward spiral that leads to our frustrating...

Show Notes Today I visit with a recent guest Wendy Hooper Ross. Wendy is an expert in residential real estate. She devotes much of her time to understanding the current and future states of the real estate market in the United States. Her insights are brilliant. Now, while in our conversations about real estate, Wendy and I happened to land on the subject of the role of fear and control in the hearts of Americans.

info_outline #335 Craig Meriwether: Take Back Control of Your LifeThe Next Chapter with Charlie
Show Notes One thing I find about my life today… I live in a world of distractions. I may have plans for the day, but other stuff just seems to come up. First there are the external distractions of emails, phone calls, unexpected appointments and less than important interruptions. But even more disrupting are the Internal Distractions of fear and anxiety and feelings of overwhelm—all resulting in a lack of confidence. It’s surprising we get anything done in any given day. Our special guest today, hypnotherapist Craig Meriwether, not only understands these issues, but he...
info_outline #334 Lindsay Davis: Being Comfortable with UncertaintyThe Next Chapter with Charlie
Show Notes As you might guess, I live in an interior world of creativity and imagination. That’s why I love to ponder. Yes, I spend a good portion of my day thinking about what is and, more importantly, what might be. Every now and again, I come across an idea that I am not sure what to do with. That’s when I make a phone call to my “go-to” thinkers who also love to ponder challenging topics. Of course I almost always put in a call to my friend Terry Hershey. And then when it comes to deep-thinking my “go-to” will always be the ever-so brilliant Lindsay Davis....

Today we are privileged to have with us Wendy Hooper Ross, a successful real estate agent and residential market analyst.
Wendy’s story will most certainly resonate with all of us as we discuss loss, grief and recovery.
Wendy met her future husband at an industry event in 2011 and soon became incredibly close friends over the next few years. They finally admitted they were made for each other and began their romance in early 2017. Soon after, her husband’s cancer, which had been in remission for nearly 3 years, came back and they went headlong into the battle together. It became clear in 2018 that he was losing his fight and they were married. 41 days later he was gone.
Wendy says, “I lost my love and my dearest friend that day. Now a new life begins.”
So let’s chat with Wendy about loss, grief and recovery.
