THIS IS "3ABN TODAY LIVE."
MOST EVERYBODY IS LIVE, EXCEPT
00:00:14.01\00:00:21.68
ME. WE ARE
INTERVIEWING SOME FOLKS
00:00:21.68\00:00:25.82
FROM WEIMAR INSTITUTE. WE
HAVE DR. NEIL NEDLEY WITH US.
00:00:25.82\00:00:30.29
IT IS ALWAYS SUCH
PLEASURE TO HAVE YOU.
00:00:30.29\00:00:33.83
I REMEMBER ONCE YOU AND I WERE
TALKING IN THE GREEN ROOM AFTER
00:00:33.83\00:00:37.07
AN INTERVIEW. FUN?
00:00:37.07\00:00:41.80
YOU MOW WHAT HE SAID -- YOU KNOW
WHAT HE SAID TO ME, YOU LOVE TO
00:00:41.80\00:00:47.54
READ MEDICAL RESEARCH
PAPER. THAT WAS YOUR FUN.
00:00:47.54\00:00:52.71
WE GOT SOME NEW FACES
WITH US. THAT IS RYAN BRANSEN.
00:00:52.71\00:00:58.35
WHAT IS YOUR DISCIPLINE?
>> I AM STUDYING EDUCATION
00:00:58.35\00:01:03.46
PROGRAM AT WEIMAR.
CURRENTLY MY MIDDLE OF MY JUNIOR
00:01:03.46\00:01:10.23
YEAR. KAROLINA MIKULASKOVA.
00:01:10.23\00:01:17.71
>> YES. >>
Shelley: IS THAT POLISH?
00:01:17.71\00:01:20.91
>> IT'S CZECH. >>
Shelley: I SHOULD HAVE KNOWN
00:01:20.91\00:01:26.88
THAT. >> I'M
STUDYING PSYCHOLOGY.
00:01:26.88\00:01:33.42
>> Shelley: GOOD.
DOCTORATE IN PSYCHOLOGY.
00:01:33.42\00:01:40.86
>> JD: LONG TIME AGO. YOU
HAVE A COURSE AND WE'LL TALK
00:01:40.86\00:01:47.00
ABOUT IT AGAIN LITTLE
BIT LATER FOR WHATEVER AGE.
00:01:47.00\00:01:56.78
>> Shelley: WE HAVE TIHO TSAIA
I'M BUSINESS ADMINISTRATION
00:01:56.78\00:02:11.43
STUDENT WITH EMPHASIS IN
HEALTHCARE ADMINISTRATION.
00:02:11.43\00:02:15.06
>> Shelley: WONDERFUL.
TELL US, LET ME ASK YOU RYAN,
00:02:15.06\00:02:20.17
HOW DID YOU END UP
AT WEIMAR INSTITUTE?
00:02:20.17\00:02:26.84
I NEVER HEARD WEIMAR TOO
MUCH. LATER ON, IN MY LATER HIGH
00:02:26.84\00:02:33.65
SCHOOL YEARS,
KIND OF BACK AROUND.
00:02:33.65\00:02:40.49
I WANT TO CONSIDER GOING TO.
I PUT IN AN APPLICATION AFTER I
00:02:40.49\00:02:47.96
FINISHED HIGH SCHOOL.
WHEN I CAME ON TO CAMPUS THAT
00:02:47.96\00:02:56.94
FIRST DAY, I DIDN'T
KNOW WHAT TO EXPECT.
00:02:56.94\00:03:04.45
>> Shelley: YOU WERE RO
-- ENROLLED THE FIRST DAY?
00:03:04.45\00:03:10.85
>> RIGHT. IT'S BEEN A BLESSING.
00:03:10.85\00:03:16.73
IT'S THE WHY I CHOSE THAT, I
REALLY LIKE THE SMALL COMMUNITY
00:03:16.73\00:03:23.77
ATMOSPHERE OF WEIMAR.
KIND OF COMRADERY THAT'S THERE.
00:03:23.77\00:03:28.97
IT'S A SPECIAL PLACE BECAUSE IN
THE STUDENT BODY IT'S RELATIVELY
00:03:28.97\00:03:34.48
LOW. IT'S JUST A PRIVILEGE.
00:03:34.48\00:03:38.71
YOU GET TO INTERACT WITH
DIFFERENT PEOPLE ON A PERSONAL
00:03:38.71\00:03:41.72
LEVEL AND GET TO KNOW
THEM AND BUILD RELATIONSHIPS.
00:03:41.72\00:03:46.49
WEIMAR EMPHASIS ON HEALTH
AND ENCOURAGING THAT LIFESTYLE
00:03:46.49\00:03:56.36
EXERCISING, EATING HEALTHY.
JUST A BLESSING TO FIND A SCHOOL
00:03:56.36\00:04:00.40
THAT PROMOTES THE
SAME DIET WE ALL WANT.
00:04:00.40\00:04:05.31
>> Shelley: THAT'S
WONDERFUL. >> JD: WHERE IS HOME?
00:04:05.31\00:04:08.31
>> SOUTHERN OREGON. >>
Shelley: YOU ARE GOING TO BE
00:04:08.31\00:04:14.58
>> Shelley: DO YOU HAVE A
PARTICULAR AGE GROUP YOU WANT?
00:04:14.58\00:04:18.19
>> THAT'S A GREAT QUESTION.
I'M THINKING MIDDLE SCHOOL.
00:04:18.19\00:04:26.53
MAYBE HISTORY OR MATHEMATICS
EITHER OF THOSE WILL BE FUN TO
00:04:26.53\00:04:30.67
TEACH. HISTORY I
DID NOT APPRECIATE AT
00:04:30.67\00:04:37.54
ALL. LEARNED.
00:04:37.54\00:04:44.15
BUNCH OF DATES AND PLACES. IT
DIDN'T REALLY RE ALIVE FOR ME.
00:04:44.15\00:04:51.59
HISTORY CAME ALIVE FOR ME
WHEN I REALLY STUDIED THE BIBLE.
00:04:51.59\00:04:57.36
THAT'S KIND OF A OPPOSITE.
PEOPLE WHO LIKE HISTORY DON'T
00:04:57.36\00:05:00.70
MENTION
MATHEMATICS. THAT'S NICE.
00:05:00.70\00:05:05.43
KAROLINA, WHAT YOU ARE GOING TO
BE PSYCHOLOGIST, PSYCHIATRIST.
00:05:05.43\00:05:10.04
>> I'M PLANNING ON GETTING MY
MASTERS IN COUNSELING FOLLOWING
00:05:10.04\00:05:16.01
THE GRADUATION WITH
BACHELOR'S IN PSYCHOLOGY.
00:05:16.01\00:05:26.32
ISSUE. IT'S PREVALENT TODAY.
00:05:26.32\00:05:29.59
WHAT TO DO WHEN
THERE'S LOT OF THEORIES.
00:05:29.59\00:05:35.66
AND THE METHODS THAT ARE APPLIED
IN THE DEPRESSION RECOVERY
00:05:35.66\00:05:39.87
PROGRAM AND THE PRINCIPLES THAT
WE TEACH AT WEIMAR TRULY WORK.
00:05:39.87\00:05:45.81
I'M EXCITED TO BE ABLE TO APPLY
THIS IN THE FUTURE IN COUNSELING
00:05:45.81\00:05:52.68
SETTING. >>
Shelley: I WANT TO FIND OUT
00:05:52.68\00:05:58.75
LET ME JUMP BACK
TO YOU FOR A SECOND.
00:05:58.75\00:06:01.72
WE KNOW THAT TEENAGE
SUICIDE IS ESCALATING.
00:06:01.72\00:06:10.50
OWN CHURCH, WE'LL FIND CHILDREN
WHO ARE IN SERIOUS DEPRESSION.
00:06:10.50\00:06:16.24
WHY DO YOU THINK -- WHAT
ARE THE SERIOUSNESS OUT THERE.
00:06:16.24\00:06:20.64
WHY OUR YOUTH ARE
HEAVILY IMPACTED BY DEPRESSION?
00:06:20.64\00:06:27.32
>> DEPRESSION IS
AT ALL-TIME HIGH.
00:06:27.32\00:06:34.26
ENTERTAINMENT INDUSTRY AND PHONE
DISTRACTING US AND NOT ALLOWING
00:06:34.26\00:06:38.43
US TO FOCUS AND CONCENTRATION
AND NOT ALLOWING US TO GET OUR
00:06:38.43\00:06:41.30
BRAINS STOCKFUL
OF GOOD SOLID FACTS.
00:06:41.30\00:06:45.40
IT'S A GULLIBLE GENERATION THAT
IS BEING LED ASTRAY INTO FALSE
00:06:45.40\00:06:50.07
WAYS OF ALTERING
THE WAY THEY FEEL.
00:06:50.07\00:06:55.14
THEY FEEL DON'T WORK.
YOU CAN NEVER GET ENOUGH WHAT
00:06:55.14\00:06:59.18
YOU DON'T NEAPED WHAT YOU DON'T
NEED WILL NEVER SATISFY YOU.
00:06:59.18\00:07:04.75
>> Shelley: IT'S INTERESTING
TO ME, YOU LOOK AT THE CEOs SOME
00:07:04.75\00:07:11.66
OF THESE, APPLE AND WHATEVER AND
SOFTWARE DEVELOPERS WILL NO NOT
00:07:11.66\00:07:17.27
ALLOW THEIR
CHILDREN. THEIR SCHOOL.
00:07:17.27\00:07:21.37
THESE ARE FANCY SCHOOLS.
WHAT YOU'RE SAYING IS THAT,
00:07:21.37\00:07:25.91
WE'RE SPENDING TOO MUCH SCREEN
TIME, KIDS, I SAY THAT, SEEMS
00:07:25.91\00:07:32.48
LIKE PEOPLE HAVE THE
ATTENTION SPAN OF A BIRD.
00:07:32.48\00:07:38.15
YOU DIP HERE AND DIP
THERE. THAT CAUSES FRONTAL LOBE
00:07:38.15\00:07:44.83
DEPRESSION. >>
Shelley: IT'S PROBABLY NOT --
00:07:44.83\00:07:50.60
FOR CHILDREN, THOSE TEEN
YEARS WHEN THEY ARE DEVELOPING.
00:07:50.60\00:07:55.74
IT WILL BE EVEN HIGHER IMPACT.
I GET IT DOES THE SAME THING TO
00:07:55.74\00:07:59.71
US. NEEDED FOR
FOCUS ATTENTION IS
00:07:59.71\00:08:05.68
IDENTICAL TO THE AREA OF OUR
BRAIN THAT WE UTILIZE TO MANAGE
00:08:05.68\00:08:11.99
DISTRESSING
EMOTIONS. IF WE CAN'T FOCUS AND
00:08:11.99\00:08:15.26
CONCENTRATE, WE'RE NOT GOING TO
BE ABLE TO MANAGE OUR EMOTIONS.
00:08:15.26\00:08:20.86
WE'RE CREATING A GENERATION THAT
CAN'T FOCUS AND CONCENTRATE FOR
00:08:20.86\00:08:23.87
VERY LONG. THEIR
HOMEWORK, WITHIN THREE
00:08:23.87\00:08:28.54
MINUTES WE FIND OUT THEY'RE
NOT DOING THEIR HOMEWORK.
00:08:28.54\00:08:31.74
THEY GOT DISTRACTED OR
NEWS FLASH CAME IN OR CHAT.
00:08:31.74\00:08:35.34
THEIR BRAINS ARE
DRIVEN TO DISTRACTION.
00:08:35.34\00:08:44.35
THEIR LIFE PRETTY
QUICK IN THIS ENTIRE PROCESS.
00:08:44.35\00:08:51.09
WE GET THEM ON A PROGRAM WHERE
THEY'RE ABLE TO DEVELOP FOCUSED
00:08:51.09\00:08:55.06
ATTENTION. IS
GOING TO BE, HOW SHE'S
00:08:55.06\00:09:00.47
MODELING TO HELP THEM TO BE
ABLE TO MANAGE THEIR THOUGHTS TO
00:09:00.47\00:09:05.51
ACTUALLY LISTEN TO THEIR
THOUGHTS AND SEE WHETHER THEY
00:09:05.51\00:09:10.61
ARE RATIONAL OR NOT AND
KAROLINA WILL HELP THEM.
00:09:10.61\00:09:15.72
THIS IS DISTORTED. HOW
I'VE BEEN THINKING IS NOT
00:09:15.72\00:09:19.09
ACCURATE. ACCURATE THOUGHTS.
00:09:19.09\00:09:22.66
SHE'LL ACTUALLY CREATE
LITTLE FLASH CARDS FOR THEM WITH
00:09:22.66\00:09:28.30
DISTORTION THOUGHT
AND ACCURATE THOUGHT.
00:09:28.30\00:09:32.23
EVERYDAY. CHANGING.
00:09:32.23\00:09:38.37
>> Shelley: COGNITIVE BEHAVIORAL
THINKING REALLY DOES WORK.
00:09:38.37\00:09:44.21
>> YES, YOU IDENTIFY THAT IN
OUR AGE, WE FOCUS ON FEELING.
00:09:44.21\00:09:49.85
WE THINK, I'M FEELING THIS WAY,
THAT MEANS THIS SITUATION WHAT I
00:09:49.85\00:09:56.69
THINK MUST BE TRUE.
I'M FEELING TERRIBLE.
00:09:56.69\00:09:59.53
THIS SITUATION MUST BE
TERRIBLE. MY LIFE IS TERRIBLE.
00:09:59.53\00:10:02.80
IT GOES OUT OF PROPORTION.
FINALLY IT GOES TO THE POINT
00:10:02.80\00:10:06.53
WHERE THEY THINK THEIR
WHOLE LIFE IS FALLING APART.
00:10:06.53\00:10:09.40
THEY DON'T REALIZE THAT
IT GOES BACK TO THE THINKING.
00:10:09.40\00:10:13.07
THE THOUGHT WHAT THEY
THINK AFFECTS THEIR FEELING.
00:10:13.07\00:10:17.55
SITUATION MAY HAPPEN. BUT
THE SITUATION ITSELF IS NOT
00:10:17.55\00:10:22.55
BAD. SITUATION.
00:10:22.55\00:10:27.42
THOUGHTS. FEELINGS.
00:10:27.42\00:10:35.50
SITUATION. THERE
ARE PEOPLE WHO ARE MORE
00:10:35.50\00:10:40.90
POSITIVE AND BUZZ THEY ARE
POSITIVE, THEY HAVE A BETTER
00:10:40.90\00:10:44.77
EXPERIENCE. NO
MATTER WHERE GOD LEADS YOU,
00:10:44.77\00:10:51.15
YOU CAN HAVE A
POSITIVE EXPERIENCE.
00:10:51.15\00:11:03.76
>> Shelley: WHAT I WAS GOING TO
SAY WAS, WHEN THE LORD TAUGHT ME
00:11:03.76\00:11:11.67
TO PRAY SCRIPTURE, THAT WAS
COGNITIVE BEHAVIORAL THERAPY.
00:11:11.67\00:11:19.37
BECAUSE I GREW UP IN A NEW
TESTAMENT CHURCH, I GREW UP
00:11:19.37\00:11:25.78
UNDER THIS CONDEMNATION, BELIEF
IF I WASN'T PERFECT, GOD WON'T
00:11:25.78\00:11:33.19
HAVE ANYTHING TO DO WITH ME.
I NEVER FELT SANE, I NEVER FELT
00:11:33.19\00:11:40.26
SECURE, I NEVER
UNDERSTOOD GOD'S LOVE.
00:11:40.26\00:11:44.40
LORD DIRECTED ME TO DO
THAT. HE CHANGED MY LIFE.
00:11:44.40\00:11:47.34
YOU REALIZED, HEY, THE ONLY
WAY YOU CAN TAKE CONTROL OF THE
00:11:47.34\00:11:52.21
NEGATIVE THOUGHTS IS TO REPLACE
IT WITH A POSITIVE THOUGHT.
00:11:52.21\00:11:57.31
ONLY WAY TO GET RID OF THE LIES
IS REPLACE IT WITH THE TRUTH.
00:11:57.31\00:12:03.99
>> THOUGHTS ARE WRONG
AND FEELINGS WILL BE WRONG.
00:12:03.99\00:12:06.39
LOT OF PEOPLE FOCUS ON THE
FEELINGS AND THEY'RE NOT GOING
00:12:06.39\00:12:09.06
THE STEP ABOVE THAT AND SAYING,
WHAT THOUGHTS ARE ACTUALLY
00:12:09.06\00:12:12.29
CAUSING THESE FEELINGS. >>
JD: I RUN ACROSS THIS QUITE
00:12:12.29\00:12:21.70
THAT'S THE REASON
YOU SAY HURRY SHELLEY.
00:12:21.70\00:12:26.61
I DON'T KNOW JUST HOW THAT
ALL WORKS, ATTENTION DEFICIT
00:12:26.61\00:12:35.15
SYNDROME. WE'RE
LIVING IN A FAST-PACED
00:12:35.15\00:12:40.76
WORLD. TELL ME ABOUT ADD?
00:12:40.76\00:12:48.33
>> IT'S REAL. ATTENTION DEFICIT.
00:12:48.33\00:12:52.23
BUT IT'S REAL LIKE
DEPRESSION IS REAL.
00:12:52.23\00:12:57.74
IT. ATTENTION
DEFICIT DISORDER I'M
00:12:57.74\00:13:05.31
TRYING TO FIND OUT
WHY THE ATTENTION DEFICIT.
00:13:05.31\00:13:11.82
YES, THERE MAYBE
BRAIN BIOCHEMISTRY ISSUES.
00:13:11.82\00:13:17.33
AND THERE'S NATURAL THINGS WE
CAN DO TO CORRECT THAT IN MOST
00:13:17.33\00:13:21.96
CASES. LIFESTYLE
TO BUILD UP THE AREA
00:13:21.96\00:13:26.60
OF THE BRAIN THAT
REQUIRES FOCUS AND ATTENTION.
00:13:26.60\00:13:32.44
WE GET THEM INVOLVED IN THINGS
WHERE THEY CAN DRAMATICALLY SEE
00:13:32.44\00:13:37.18
A DEFINITE IMPROVEMENT IN THEIR
LIFE AS A RESULT OF PRACTICING
00:13:37.18\00:13:41.08
THESE THINGS. >> JD:
RATHER THAN THEM GETTING
00:13:41.08\00:13:45.09
DECISION COURAGED BECAUSE
THEY LIVE IN A WORLD OF SLIPPERY
00:13:45.09\00:13:48.49
SLOPES, THERE IS A WAY OUT
IF THEY GO TO THE RIGHT PEOPLE?
00:13:48.49\00:13:58.90
>> OF COURSE, IT'S NOT JUST
GOING TO THE RIGHT PEOPLE, BUT
00:13:58.90\00:14:03.51
INCORPORATING WHAT THOSE PEOPLE
WE ACTUALLY TELL PEOPLE THEY
00:14:03.51\00:14:07.21
COME TO OUR PROGRAM, THEY KIND
OF SHOCKED.  THEY PAY THIS MONEY
00:14:07.21\00:14:12.18
TO COME TO OUR PROGRAM.
THIS PROGRAM DOESN'T WORK.
00:14:12.18\00:14:21.16
PROGRAM WORKS WHEN
THEY WORK THE PROGRAM.
00:14:21.16\00:14:24.83
ASPECT. PHYSICAL ASPECT.
00:14:24.83\00:14:31.73
ABOUT TREMENDOUS TRANSFORMATION
AND THEN THE REAL INDIVIDUAL
00:14:31.73\00:14:34.87
WITH THEIR GREAT IDENTITY STARTS
COMING FORWARD AND THEY ARE
00:14:34.87\00:14:39.07
STARTING TO GET SUCCESSFUL.
>> Shelley: KAROLINA WHAT
00:14:39.07\00:14:43.88
>> I ORIGINALLY WAS BROUGHT TO
WEIMAR BECAUSE MY PARENTS MOVED
00:14:43.88\00:14:49.38
THERE. CAFETERIA.
00:14:49.38\00:15:02.40
FRESHMAN YEAR HIGH
SCHOOL I WAS AT WEIMAR ACADEMY.
00:15:02.40\00:15:06.27
I FELT PEOPLE CARED ABOUT ME.
I NEVER THOUGHT I COULD HAVE SO
00:15:06.27\00:15:10.87
MANY LOVING AND CARING FRIENDS.
I DIDN'T HAVE LOT OF FRIENDS
00:15:10.87\00:15:15.14
GROWING UP. I WAS
OVERWHELMED HOW MUCH
00:15:15.14\00:15:19.51
ME AND JUST
REALLY REACH OUT TO ME.
00:15:19.51\00:15:29.86
PSYCHOLOGY STARTED
FRESHMAN YEAR HIGH SCHOOL.
00:15:29.86\00:15:34.30
THEN SOPHOMORE YEAR, I SAW
DEPRESSION WAS CHANGING PEOPLE
00:15:34.30\00:15:39.77
LIVES. DEPRESSION IN PSYCHOLOGY
00:15:39.77\00:15:47.41
SPECIFICALLY. PSYCHOLOGIST.
00:15:47.41\00:15:55.82
I REALIZED IT WAS AN ISSUE.
I WAS REALLY INTERESTED IN THE
00:15:55.82\00:16:03.36
PROGRAM AND
INTEREST KEPT ON BUILDING.
00:16:03.36\00:16:11.07
THAT WASN'T REALLY A PROGRAM
THAT WAS TEACHING WHAT I HAD
00:16:11.07\00:16:16.71
LEARNED IN THE DEPRESSION
RECOVERY PROGRAM AND THE
00:16:16.71\00:16:21.31
PRINCIPLES TAUGHT AT WEIMAR.
THERE WAS NO PSYCHOLOGY PROGRAM
00:16:21.31\00:16:25.91
OFFERED AT THE
TIME. I ASKED AROUND.
00:16:25.91\00:16:41.70
IT'S
UNFORTUNATELY LESS BIBLE-BASED.
00:16:41.70\00:16:45.53
PROGRAM. THIS
DOESN'T MEAN THAT IT'S NOT
00:16:45.53\00:16:49.77
SCIENTIFICALLY BASED.  YOUR
PAIRING THE SCIENTIFIC WITH THE
00:16:49.77\00:16:54.08
BIBLICAL. YOU REALIZE THEY ARE
00:16:54.08\00:17:04.69
INTERTWINED. GOD IS SCIENTIFIC.
00:17:04.69\00:17:07.76
HIS METHODS WORKED. I
REALLY WANTED THAT BIBLICAL
00:17:07.76\00:17:12.06
PERSPECTIVE. SENIOR YEAR.
00:17:12.06\00:17:16.43
THEN THE ANNOUNCEMENT WAS
MADE THAT THEY WERE STARTING
00:17:16.43\00:17:20.20
PSYCHOLOGY
PROGRAM THAT NEXT FALL.
00:17:20.20\00:17:27.01
I SAID PRAISE GOD. I
WILL BE ABLE TO STAY HOME AS
00:17:27.01\00:17:31.35
WELL WHICH WAS NICE. I
STARTED THAT NEXT FALL.
00:17:31.35\00:17:37.32
TRULY, I'VE BEEN
ABLE TO SEE THE TRUTH.
00:17:37.32\00:17:41.59
THERE'S A LOT OF POLITICS
INVOLVED IN RESEARCH AND
00:17:41.59\00:17:45.09
SCIENCE. I TRULY
SEE WHAT SCIENCE SAYS.
00:17:45.09\00:17:57.37
THE RESEARCH AND
YOU CAN VERIFY IT.
00:17:57.37\00:18:31.61
>> Shelley: THAT WAS
HOLY SPIRIT DIRECTING YOU.
00:18:31.61\00:18:36.21
THAT'S WHAT'S SO AMAZING.
>> THAT'S WHAT BROUGHT ME TO
00:18:36.21\00:18:43.92
WEIMAR. INTO THE
COLLEGE.  IT HAS BEEN
00:18:43.92\00:18:51.56
BLESSING. CLONE YOURSELF HERE.
00:18:51.56\00:18:59.53
>> HE'S SITTING
LIKE A PROUD PARENT.
00:18:59.53\00:19:06.61
>> Shelley: TEEN TINO
HOW DID YOU COME TO WEIMAR?
00:19:06.61\00:19:10.81
>> THAT'S A GREAT QUESTION.
DIDN'T REALLY CHOOSE WEIMAR.
00:19:10.81\00:19:14.88
GOD CHOSE IT FOR
ME. I HOME SCHOOLED.
00:19:14.88\00:19:17.82
I WAS HOPING TO BECOME A DOCTOR
AND RUN A HOSPITAL SOME DAY.
00:19:17.82\00:19:22.29
I WAS LOOKING INTO VARIOUS
PREMED PROGRAMS AND I WAS
00:19:22.29\00:19:27.20
OVERWHELMED ALL THIS INFORMATION
THAT WAS COMING MY WAY.
00:19:27.20\00:19:31.67
ONE NIGHT I DECIDED TO SPEND
HOURS IN PRAYER UNTIL I HAD
00:19:31.67\00:19:36.34
PEACE. MY LIFE CLEAR.
00:19:36.34\00:19:41.64
OR CLOSES CERTAIN
DOORS FOR YOUR LIFE.
00:19:41.64\00:19:49.38
SAW GOD LEADING VERY
CLEARLY TOWARDS WEIMAR.
00:19:49.38\00:20:03.30
LONG STORY SHORT, BEING IN THE
PASTOR'S OFFICE TALKING ABOUT
00:20:03.30\00:20:11.31
THE NEXT STEP.
EXPERIENCE AND EDUCATION.
00:20:11.31\00:20:15.14
HE SAID IF I WAS YOU, I
WOULD SUGGEST YOU GO TO WEIMAR.
00:20:15.14\00:20:19.38
I BURSTED IN TEARERS. I
HAD A MOMENT, YOU EITHER
00:20:19.38\00:20:26.62
SCREAMED OR CRIED.
I BROKE INTO TEARS.
00:20:26.62\00:20:36.70
WHEN I REALIZED THAT GOD HAS
BEEN SPEAKING AND TRYING TO LEAD
00:20:36.70\00:20:40.14
ME TOWARDS WEIMAR. MY
FEAR AND MY MISCONCEPTIONS
00:20:40.14\00:20:47.08
WAS KEEPING ME FROM THE
PLACE. COMING TO WEIMAR, IT WAS
00:20:47.08\00:20:54.58
LITERALLY SCARIEST DECISION
OF MY LIFE AT THAT POINT.
00:20:54.58\00:20:58.49
I THOUGHT I WAS ON THIS PATH.
SUDDENLY, THE ROAD DISAPPEARS.
00:20:58.49\00:21:02.66
I'M SUPPOSED TO CONTINUE WALKING
OVER TO THE OTHER SIDE WITHOUT A
00:21:02.66\00:21:07.96
BRIDGE. FEELING I EVER HAD.
00:21:07.96\00:21:13.87
GOD IS GOOD. HE
HELPED IN TO TRUST IN HIM.
00:21:13.87\00:21:18.01
DESPITE WHAT MY
FEELINGS WERE SAYING.
00:21:18.01\00:21:25.01
NOT ACCREDITED. THAT
WAS A GENUINE CONCERN
00:21:25.01\00:21:28.15
ESPECIALLY A GIRL
GOING INTO HEALTHCARE.
00:21:28.15\00:21:31.99
GOD SPOKE TO MY PARENTS AS WELL.
THEY HAD SIMILAR FEARS FOR ME.
00:21:31.99\00:21:38.86
THEY WANTED TO SUCCEED. I
DECIDED TO STUDY PREMED AT
00:21:38.86\00:21:46.30
WEIMAR. AROUND THE
TIME WHEN YOU THOUGHT
00:21:46.30\00:21:54.61
I'LL HAVE TO LEAVE AND STUDY
BUSINESS ELSEWHERE TO FOLLOW THE
00:21:54.61\00:21:59.51
DREAM GOD PLACED ON MY HEARTH.
GOD BRINGS IN SOMEONE AND
00:21:59.51\00:22:03.39
BUSINESS PROGRAM WITH
AN EMPHASIS ON HEALTHCARE
00:22:03.39\00:22:08.79
ADMINISTRATION. >>
Shelley: THAT'S AMAZING.
00:22:08.79\00:22:12.59
IT SEEMS LIKE GOD IS LEADING
INTO INDIVIDUALS THERE AND
00:22:12.59\00:22:18.53
WEIMAR HE SAYS, ALL
RIGHT, HERE'S YOUR BABY BIRD.
00:22:18.53\00:22:21.44
YOU GOT TO FEED THEM.
SUDDENLY, HE POPS UP A NEW
00:22:21.44\00:22:26.24
PROGRAM FOR YOU. >>
YOU CAN SEE WHY I ENJOY MY
00:22:26.24\00:22:30.61
JOB THERE. >> JD:
YOU CAN VISUALIZE THAT
00:22:30.61\00:22:34.75
YOU WALK AND YOU
COME TO DEAD END.
00:22:34.75\00:22:40.72
LOT OF PEOPLE FIND
THEMSELVES IN THAT POSITION.
00:22:40.72\00:22:45.19
YOU WERE OUTSIDE YOUR COMFORT
ZONE BUT THE LORD WAS JUST IN
00:22:45.19\00:22:49.23
TIME RIGHT
THERE. >> HOME FOR ME.
00:22:49.23\00:22:57.97
I'M ORIGINALLY FROM ZIMBABWE BUT
I GREW UP IN PORTLAND, OREGON.
00:22:57.97\00:23:05.18
>> Shelley: YOU DON'T
HAVE A ZIMBABWE ACCENT.
00:23:05.18\00:23:14.42
>> JD: I KNOW ALL THREE
OF THEM ARE EXTREMELY BRIGHT.
00:23:14.42\00:23:18.89
EACH OF YOUR HEARTS.
WHAT I LIKE IS JUST -- YOU'RE
00:23:18.89\00:23:24.43
JUST SOLD OUT TO JESUS.
NUMBER TWO, YOU SOLD OUT TO
00:23:24.43\00:23:29.14
WEIMAR. YOU'RE A
FANTASTIC AMBASSADORS
00:23:29.14\00:23:32.84
FOR WEIMAR. >>
SPEAKING OF THE BUSINESS
00:23:32.84\00:23:37.45
STARTED IT IS BECAUSE DR. HART,
WHO'S THE PRESIDENT AND WORLD IN
00:23:37.45\00:23:45.49
WORLD MISSION HOSPITAL, WAS
TELLING ME WHAT A DEFICIT WE
00:23:45.49\00:23:48.46
HAVE IN BEING ABLE TO HAVE GOOD
ADMINISTRATORS AT OUR MISSION
00:23:48.46\00:23:52.83

00:23:52.83\00:23:58.30
THAT. FIELD.
00:23:58.30\00:24:06.27
THEY'RE NOT REALLY GODLY AND
THEY'RE NOT REALLY LEADING THE

INSTITUTION IN REGARDS TO
MISSION-FOCUSED IN RECOGNIZING
00:24:09.41\00:24:17.52

THAT'S TRAINING ME TO BE A
PROFESSIONAL AND A MISSIONARY.
00:24:54.99\00:24:59.69
THAT COMBINATION IS ESSENTIAL
IN HEALTHCARE AND IN ANY OTHER
00:24:59.69\00:25:02.43
BUSINESS FOR THAT MATTER.
YOU ASKED THE QUESTION WHAT I

00:27:15.70\00:27:19.70

THERE WAS A WOMAN WE CAME IN
CONTACT WITH AND WE HELPED HER
00:29:17.49\00:29:22.66
AND HER HUSBAND. WE
RAKED THE PINE NEEDLES THAT
00:29:22.66\00:29:28.86
SEEM TO FALL
OFF THE TREES THERE.
00:29:28.86\00:29:34.44

WE WERE ABLE TO IMPACT
THE CHILDREN IN THE COMMUNITY.
00:32:15.10\00:32:19.57

SOMEBODY ASKED ME IF YOU GO BACK

TO ANY AGE,
NOTHING YOUNGER THAN 40.
00:37:06.05\00:37:11.29
BEGINS AT 40.
THERE'S SOME TRUTH IN THAT.
00:37:11.29\00:37:15.93

NOT ONLY PASSING THE EXAM
BUT BEING EMPLOYED RIGHT AWAY.
00:38:41.12\00:38:47.39
I'VE HEARD THAT -- WE HEAR HOW A
LOT OF PEOPLE ARE TRYING TO GET
00:38:47.39\00:38:54.23
IN AND THEY FEEL LIKE IT'S
DIFFICULT TO GET INTO SOME OF
00:38:54.23\00:38:58.20
THESE MEDICAL SCHOOLS.
WHAT YOUR PREMED STUDENTS ARE

I'M SURE ALL OF
THEM CAN SPEAK TO THAT.
00:40:12.31\00:40:20.25
>> SHARE A QUICK STORY THAT
ENCAPSULATE WHAT OUR TEACHERS
00:40:20.25\00:40:24.65
ARE LIKE. IN CERTAIN
EDUCATION COURSES, WE
00:40:24.65\00:40:28.06
HAVE THE OPPORTUNITY TO GO
AND MAKE LESSON PLANS AND GO AND
00:40:28.06\00:40:32.79

WEIMAR
ELEMENTARY, IT WENT SOUTH.
00:40:50.81\00:40:55.25
I LOST CONTROL. THE
CLASSROOM, TYPICAL FOR
00:40:55.25\00:40:59.15
TEACHERS STARTING OUT.
AFTERWARDS IN THE DEBRIEF
00:40:59.15\00:41:04.69
SESSION, MRS. RAMIREZ WHO WAS
THE INSTRUCTOR FOR THAT CLASS,
00:41:04.69\00:41:07.76
SHE JUST SAID, IT'S
JUST ONE LESSON PLAN.
00:41:07.76\00:41:15.40
I'M SO THANKFUL FOR
THOSE WORDS OF ENCOURAGEMENT.
00:41:15.40\00:41:19.14

YOU CAN BE SUCCESSFUL
WORKER FOR JESUS CHRIST.
00:41:42.63\00:41:48.87
THE LADY WHO STARTED THE
PROGRAM WHO HEADED THE PROGRAM,
00:41:48.87\00:41:55.98
DR. MELISSA GARCIA. I
REMEMBER BEING INTIMIDATED.
00:41:55.98\00:41:59.95
SHE'S V INTELLIGENT WOMAN.
SHE GOT PH.D. AND DID RESEARCH
00:41:59.95\00:42:09.46
IN THE LAB AND
GENERAL PSYCHOLOGY.
00:42:09.46\00:42:16.63
SHE ENDED UP BEING
VERY, VERY PERSONABLE.
00:42:16.63\00:42:23.64
LEVEL AND REACH OUT TO US.
SHE WAS NOT JUST COMPASSIONATE,
00:42:23.64\00:42:29.21
SHE HAD A STANDARD SHE HAD
SET. SHE HELPED US REACH THAT
00:42:29.21\00:42:36.48
STANDARD. IT WAS
CLASS ABOVE THE ABILITY
00:42:36.48\00:42:43.53
THAT I MIGHT HAVE AT THE TIME.
300 LEVEL CLASS AND I WAS A
00:42:43.53\00:42:46.93
FRESHMAN. THE FIRST
RESEARCH PAPER I DONE
00:42:46.93\00:42:52.47
AT LEAST THIS TIME. I
WAS STRUGGLING WITH IT.
00:42:52.47\00:42:56.10
I WAS STRUGGING W
-- STRUGGLING WITH IT.
00:42:56.10\00:43:04.98
SHE GIVEN ME A GRADE AND
SHE KNEW YOU NEEDED HELP.
00:43:04.98\00:43:09.82
YOU KNEW I NEEDED HELP.
THE RATIO, THE STUDENT RATIO IS
00:43:09.82\00:43:14.46
VERY UNIQUE AT WEIMAR. AT
THAT TIME, THERE WERE ONLY
00:43:14.46\00:43:19.46
FOUR STUDENTS IN THE
CLASS. SPECIFICALLY THAT CLASS.
00:43:19.46\00:43:24.53
THIS IS FOR ABNORMAL PSYCHOLOGY.
ABNORMAL PSYCHOLOGY TALK ABOUT
00:43:24.53\00:43:30.91
THEORIES AND
METHODS AND TREATMENTS.
00:43:30.91\00:43:36.04
WAS REACHING ABOUT
IT. I WAS STRUGGLING.
00:43:36.04\00:43:39.51
SHE INVITED ME TO
COME TO HER HOUSE.
00:43:39.51\00:43:44.49
WERE IN HER GARAGE ON A
SWINGING CHAIR AND WE WERE JUST
00:43:44.49\00:43:47.99
DISCUSSING AND SHE WAS TRYING TO
HELP ME PROCESS THROUGH MY PAPER
00:43:47.99\00:43:51.26
AND LAY IT OUT. I
REALIZED, THAT I WOULD HAVE
00:43:51.26\00:43:56.06
NEVER GOTTEN THIS ANYWHERE ELSE.
THE CARE AND THE INTENTIONAL
00:43:56.06\00:44:03.04
EFFORT PLACED INTO THE
DEVELOPMENT OF THE STUDENTS, NOT
00:44:03.04\00:44:08.68
JUST ACADEMICALLY BUT
SPIRITUALLY, EMOTIONALLY, THEY
00:44:08.68\00:44:11.48
ARE WILLING TO BECOME YOUR
FRIEND AND TRULY, I CAN SAY THAT
00:44:11.48\00:44:15.65
SHE'S A MENTOR AND A FRIEND.

GIVES YOU A
TEMPLATE ON YOUR FUTURE.
00:44:23.93\00:44:40.21

THERE MIGHT HAVE BEEN
400 OF US IN THE CLASS.
00:45:49.84\00:45:52.71

THERE'S A GAP EVEN
IN CHRISTIAN EDUCATION.

THESE ARE ALL POTENTIAL GROWTH
00:48:38.05\00:48:49.69

PRIVATE PRACTICE
AND FOLLOWING IT PATH.
00:50:59.62\00:51:03.79
SOUNDS LIKE GOD OPENED THIS

BRING ABOUT THE RETURN OF JESUS.

I KNOW AS WE TRAIN MORE
YOUNG PEOPLE, JESUS IS CLOSER TO

THESE STUDENTS ARE LEARNING
THIS AS PART OF THEIR EDUCATION.

THEY'RE WINNING
SOULS AS PART OF IT.

WE HAVE TO ALLOW HIM

MORE FULLY, I
UNDERSTOOD THE GOSPEL BETTER.
00:53:19.16\00:53:22.46
THE PROCESS OF HOW JESUS IS
GOING ABOUT ENSURING SALVATION
00:53:22.46\00:53:25.70
EACH ONE OF US TODAY. THAT
I THINK HAS BEEN ONE OF THE
00:53:25.70\00:53:33.48
BIGGEST TAKE AWAYS.
SOUND ENCOURAGEMENT TO ANYONE

COME, LEARN HOW TO BE THE
FRIEND FIRST ALL FOR JESUS.
00:53:46.05\00:53:49.82
HE'S THE ONE WHO
CALLED US FRIENDS.
00:53:49.82\00:53:58.27
FIRST OF JESUS, THEN YOU PREPARE
TO BECOME THE FRIEND OF THOSE
00:53:58.27\00:54:02.17
AROUND YOU AND
THOSE IN YOUR COMMUNITY.
00:54:02.17\00:54:09.21
INCORPORATING INTO THEIR MISSION
AND IT'S JUST PHENOMENAL BECAUSE
00:54:09.21\00:54:12.55
WHAT THEY ARE DOING IS PREPARING
PEOPLE TO SOUND THE ALARM.
00:54:12.55\00:54:18.02
JESUS IS COMING
SOON AND HE LOVES US.
00:54:18.02\00:54:21.39

00:54:21.39\00:54:24.89
GOING TO SAY EARLIER, EVEN
TALKING WITH THESE YOUNG PEOPLE
00:54:24.89\00:54:28.00
IN THE GREEN ROOM, I THOUGHT,
YOU MUST ONLY TAKE THE HIGHEST.
00:54:28.00\00:54:34.20
EVERYONE IS SO WELL
SPOKEN. VERY ARTICULATE.
00:54:34.20\00:54:38.27
IT'S SO ENCOURAGING TO HEAR
AS YOU SAID, KAROLINA, NOBODY
00:54:38.27\00:54:44.01
TRYING TO WEED YOU OUT.
THEY HELPED YOU TO DEVELOP THIS.
00:54:44.01\00:54:48.55
GIVE ME ABOUT 30 SECONDS,
HOW IT IMPACTED YOU SPIRITUALLY.
00:54:48.55\00:54:55.19
>> FACT THAT
JESUS CALLED US FRIENDS.
00:54:55.19\00:55:01.66
THAT JESUS WANTED TO BE MY
FRIEND MORE THAN I EVER COULD
00:55:01.66\00:55:05.97
