#127 Charlie: An International Crisis-Diarrhea and Infant Mortality
The Next Chapter with Charlie
Show Notes Today’s show will be a bit different from our normal “interview” format. Today I want to talk about how to begin saving the lives of more than 800,000 children under 5 worldwide. Although my focus will be on the country of Uganda win which I have worked for the last 3 years. Last night I was watching a documentary on Netflix, titled “Decoding Bill’s Brain,” which is all about Bill Gates. While I thought the documentary would be kind of an overview of Bill Gates’ accomplishments a neuro-processes, it turned out to be quite different. About half the...

#126 Terry Hershey: Soft Hearts-Windows to the Soul
The Next Chapter with Charlie
Show Notes Today we are with our friend Terry Hershey and I would like to talk about his most recent Sabbath Moment post titled, See With Our Heart. Only I want to expand the topic to include how a Soft Heart can open a Window to Your Soul. Throughout my life I have discovered, every now and again, moments that I call “Windows to My Soul.” Typically these moments occur for me when my heart is softened or even broken. Weddings are often joyful moments that soften my heart and allow me a moment to see past my conscious self and grant me entrance through those thin places...

#125 Tim Timmons: Netflix’s “The Family” and “Jesus Plus Nothing"
The Next Chapter with Charlie
Show Notes Let me tell you Paul I am most excited about our show today with our very special guest, Tim Timmons—a man that shaped the fundamentals of my Christian belief system so profoundly that I still follow the precepts he taught me almost 40 years ago. Now, forgive me for the, abut to come, longer than usual introduction but it is necessary to establish a context for our conversation with Tim. In 1980, as a man leaning more toward atheism than any other faith system, I found myself in a challenge that required me to read a couple books in the Bible as means to disprove the...

#124 Nick Jordan- Passion with a Purpose
The Next Chapter with Charlie
Show Notes Hey Paul, it’s great to be here with you again at OC Talk Radio after a couple weeks off as I was working in Uganda, Africa. There is nothing that enriches my soul more than serving the poorest of the poor—people that live on less than $2.00 per day in the most rural of villages. And believe me, rural is grossly understated. They live on dirt floors in one-room homes with no electricity, no running water, no toilet and most often 10 to 20 miles from any form of a somewhat urban town. Today I’m visiting with a fellow traveller CEO and Founder of Wells of Life, Nick...

The Next Chapter with Charlie
Show Notes My guest today, Marc Ottestad is all about connection—connecting people, connecting ideas or patterns, and connecting to God. And he provides strategies to accomplish those connections.

Today my special guest is Adrian Laurentiu who comes to us all the way from Uganda, Africa. He is the Country Operations Manager for the NGO Wells of Life and has committed his life to public service of humanity. Although Adrian is from Romania and has Bachelor degree in Music and a Masters degree in International Relations and Diplomacy and is currently working on a PhD African Political Geography, Adrian’s primary desire in life is to serve humanity in Africa.
So today’s question is why does Adrian give up the chances of a potentially lucrative career in International Relations to work in Africa for a low paying non-profit?
