    Show Notes #397 Susanne Eden: Aging with Optimism and Purpose

    Today we are chatting with Dr Susanne Eden, author of Healing from the Inside: Living Fully as You Age, which is a delightful journey into a vibrant, yet realistic old age.

    At the age of 87, Susanne believes she is in better shape today—physically, mentally, spiritually—than she was 30 years ago.

    Let's find out more as we bring Dr Susanne Eden on the show!

  • #396 Chris Avery: The Emerging Role of Men
    Jan 28 2026

    My guest today is Chris Avery.

    With a humble but steadily growing community of 5,000 Christian men, Chris Avery brings a grounded voice to topics like discipline, fatherhood, and the gritty side of spiritual growth.

    Chris wasn't born with unshakeable confidence. He's walked through the valley of fear, experienced doubt, and rebuilt himself one mile at a time (which we will talk about more as the show proceeds).

    Chris has coached more than a thousand people, helping men find clarity, resilience, and deeper identity in Christ.

  • #395 Steve Garnass-Holmes
    Jan 21 2026

    My guest today is friend and poet Steve Garnass-Holmes.

    Steve Garnass-Holmes's life is rich in thought and in experience. Talking to Steve is like talking to a writer of wisdom literature. Today we will begin the show by addressing the question, "What does it really mean to follow Jesus?" Is it a heart or head issue? The heart says to love while the head becomes laden with thoughts of being right.

    But there is really only one way to be right and that is To Love. Steve Garnass-Holmes will challenge what you may believe and then encourage you with one simple truth.

    Let's find out more as we bring Steve Garnass-Holmes on the show!

    I highly recommend Steve's book of poetry, Unfolding Light, and his daily readings which you can find HERE. At unfoldinglight.net.

  • #392 Terry Hershey: Pilgrimages to Experience Wonder
    Dec 17 2025

    Show Notes

    Welcome friends to the Next Chapter with Charlie.

    On a recent blog I wrote the following note…

    "On my last trip (3 weeks in Asia), I discovered a new mantra for taking time away from home. "I no longer go on vacations to sight-see. Instead, I take pilgrimages to experience wonder." What if I made that my mantra for every single day?

    "Anticipate little except moments of surprise and wonder."

    And so with this, I chat with author, teacher, and landscape architect, Terry Hershy.
