I’ve studied Dr Benjamin Rush, MD. 1745 -1813. Died treating Typhus.
Child orphan. Signed Declaration of Independence. Surgeon General, Revolutionary War, Continental Army. Delegate, Pennsylvania, to develop our Constitution. Chief doctor during the 1793 Yellow Fever Epidemic.
Started a medical school. Trained 3,000+ doctors. Abolitionist. Set sensible standards for treating mentally ill. Wrote the first chemistry textbook in America.
Additionally, used his amicable personality to confront Presidents Adams and Jefferson in their later years. (Two stubborn polar opposites.) He told both to explain themselves to the present and future generations, before they died. He rekindled love and correspondence between them.
His 1700’s, imperfect beliefs on medical and social issues are not without huge controversy. Left a legacy to examine, critique, and garner lessons learned.
How did he accomplish all this and much more?
Two factors. 1. He believed; to whom much is given, much is expected. God gave us all extraordinary brains and dispositions. 2. He was a Presbyterian Christian and went to church almost every Sunday! Plus frequently attended Anglican, Baptist, African-Methodist- Episcopal-Congregations.
Hmmmm……..? Is congregation participation connected to a highly engaged and meaningful life????
We’re each wise to calculate the conclusion……………
New Hope is open for business…….! Welcomes ALL!
Here we go!

For many years, I’ve been thinking about the history of “salvation” teachings in the Church, beginning amongst the first Christians. So, I’ve decided to write a series of short essays. Limited to 500 words each. Easy reads...click on the button to begin :)

27 Daniel replied, “No wise man, enchanter, magician or diviner can explain to the king the mystery he has asked about, 28 but there is a God in heaven who reveals mysteries. He has shown King Nebuchadnezzar what will happen in days to come. Your dream and the visions that passed through your mind as you were lying in bed
