Health Care Concern: Government Utilitarianism & the Hippocratic Oath
Heather Zeiger "The government doesn't take the Hippocratic Oath, but maybe it should." Is the healthcare debate just rock-throwing between political liberals and conservatives? A Christian worldview informs us of deeper concerns than party affiliation.
Heather Zeiger connects the dots between government's penchant for utilitarian solutions--which can quash God-given individual rights--and the covenental relationship between individuals and their doctors, traditionally driven by the Hippocratic Oath. No matter which version of health care reform legislation finally makes its way out of Capitol Hill, these considerations are important.

From ancient Greek days, physicians have sworn the Hippocratic Oath to "do no harm." The government, however, makes no such pledge.

 The Christmas Story: Does It Really Matter?
Rusty WrightA magazine editor asked me to write a Christmas article that his Christian readers could give to their friends having differing faith perspectives. During a July morning walk in Pasadena, my wife, Meg, and I brainstormed on why the Christmas story still matters. The reasons we came up with became the article, and later this radio series.
