This week, Surfing the MASH Tsunami looks back on interviews Roger Green conducted during the EASL Congress itself. This conversation with Fatty Liver Alliance Founder and CEO Mike Betel took place Wednesday of Congress week, a day for special sections and industry presentations, but one day before the General Session opened.The first part of the conversation centered on the Patient Advocate session that Mike chaired with Shira Zelber-Sagi. (This is the focus of Season 5 Episode 23.) The goal of this session was to discuss barriers to addressing unmet needs in a clinical setting and explore potential solutions. He listed the speakers and their topics, and then went straight to his key takeaway: patients around the world are having challenges getting personal attention and time from their treaters. He mentions one panelist who once told a doctor, "I know you're listening but you're not hearing me." The conversation also touched on stigma and how it comes into these discussions.The rest of this interview touched briefly on the Opening Session and a couple of industry-sponsored sessions Mike attended. His final point was to emphasize the exceptional opportunities for networking at an event like this one.

From Bigger Pockets to a Better Life with Brandon Turner Join us as we dive into the incredible journey of real estate investor and podcaster Brandon Turner. Discover how he went from buying a deal a year to building a portfolio of over 13,000 units, and learn the strategies and mindset shifts that fueled his remarkable success. Table of Contents Brandon's Entrepreneurial Awakening Surrounding Yourself with the Right People Blowing Past a 1,000-Unit Goal Why Mobile Home Parks? Avoiding Problematic States and Markets Transitioning from Biggerpockets to The Better Life Podcast The Importance of In-Person Podcasting The Devastating Lahaina Fire and its Impact Redefining Success: Prioritizing Family and Happiness Ttance of Adaptable Goals Lessons Learned from Leaving Biggerpockets Educating Children on Alternative Paths in Life Brandon's Entrepreneurial Awakening It all started with a realization at Joe Ferrellus' best ever conference in Denver. Surrounded by successful real estate investors, I came face to face with my untapped potential. I was only buying a deal a year, barely scratching the surface of what I could achieve. It hit me that I could build a big business, have a team, and aim for something much bigger. Surrounding Yourself with the Right People Surrounding yourself with successful and motivated individuals can have a profound impact on your own success. When I started associating with people who were achieving greater real estate volume, I began to see new possibilities and opportunities for growth. Through engaging with the BiggerPockets podcast and interacting with accomplished investors like Grant Cardone and Chris Clothier, I gained valuable insights into scaling businesses and leveraging resources effectively. Learning from Successful Individuals Observing individuals who were handling significantly larger real estate portfolios than mine helped me realize that scalability doesn't necessarily equate to working more hours. Engaging with people accomplishing substantial deals highlighted the importance of strategic delegation and building efficient teams. Witnessing others achieve exponential growth while working fewer hours shifted my perspective on the relationship between effort and success. The Power of Association By surrounding myself with ambitious and accomplished individuals, I was able to challenge my own limitations and expand my vision of what was achievable. This environment of success and ambition propelled me to surpass my initial goals and achieve remarkable growth in a relatively short period. Blowing Past a 1,000-Unit Goal After making the decision to go all in on mobile home park investing, I set a goal to acquire 1,000 units within a year. This ambitious target pushed me to take massive action and think outside the box to achieve rapid growth. Strategic Acquisition Tactics Implementing creative financing strategies enabled me to acquire properties with minimal capital and maximize returns. Utilizing innovative negotiation techniques allowed me to secure deals that surpassed my initial expectations. Forming strategic partnerships and leveraging my network played a pivotal role in rapidly scaling my portfolio. Building a High-Performing Team Assembling a dedicated and skilled team was crucial in managing a large number of properties effectively and ensuring seamless operations. By delegating responsibilities and empowering my team, we were able to surpass the 1,000-unit milestone with remarkable efficiency. Why Mobile Home Parks? Investing in mobile home parks offers unique advantages and opportunities that make it an appealing venture for real estate investors. The following factors highlight the reasons behind the strategic choice of mobile home park investments: Scalability and Efficiency Mobile home park investments provide the potential for rapid scalability and efficient management, allowing investors to oversee a large number of units with relative ease. Operating larger properties can often be more streamlined and manageable, leveraging economies of scale to maximize returns and minimize operational complexities. With the ability to oversee numerous units within a single property, mobile home park investments offer a compelling avenue for achieving substantial growth and profitability. Strategic Property Selection Choosing mobile home parks in areas with favorable population demographics and strong tenant demand can significantly enhance occupancy rates and overall investment performance. Avoiding properties with potential challenges such as septic tanks and unfavorable landlord regulations in certain states can mitigate operational hurdles and optimize investment outcomes. Focusing on larger mobile home park properties in well-populated areas can offer a more favorable investment landscape, facilitating improved tenant acquisition and retention. Avoiding Problematic States and Markets When it comes to real estate investments, avoiding problematic states and markets is crucial for maintaining a streamlined and efficient portfolio. By steering clear of regions with challenging regulations and governmental barriers, investors can mitigate operational hurdles and optimize their investment outcomes. Strategic Market Selection Choosing markets with favorable landlord regulations and supportive governmental policies can facilitate smoother property management and tenant relations. Avoiding states with stringent eviction processes and prolonged legal procedures can help investors steer clear of potential challenges associated with tenant disputes and occupancy issues. Focusing on markets with a proactive approach to low-income housing support and tenant rights can create a more conducive environment for sustainable and profitable real estate investments. Transitioning from Biggerpockets to The Better Life Podcast After my nine-year stint with the BiggerPockets podcast, I made the decision to transition to The Better Life podcast. This shift was driven by my entrepreneurial spirit and the desire to have autonomy over my schedule and endeavors. While BiggerPockets was an invaluable experience, I craved the freedom to chart my own course and explore new opportunities. Embracing Entrepreneurial Independence As an entrepreneur at heart, I value the ability to own my time, schedule, and business ventures. The decision to leave BiggerPockets stemmed from my desire to have full ownership and control over my podcasting journey, aligning with my personal and professional aspirations. The Birth of The Better Life Podcast The inception of The Better Life podcast was inspired by a song created by my friends, Derek and Mark. Their music, coupled with my ambition to expand beyond real estate, fueled the creation of a platform that delves into a diverse range of topics and interviews. This transition allowed me to broaden my scope and connect with a wider audience while still maintaining a strong focus on real estate. The Importance of In-Person Podcasting When it comes to podcasting, the dynamics of in-person recording can significantly enhance the overall experience for both hosts and guests. The physical presence creates a heightened sense of importance and accountability, leading to more profound and authentic conversations. The Devastating Lahaina Fire and its Impact The Lahaina fire had a devastating impact on the town, resulting in the loss of numerous businesses and homes. The aftermath of the fire left a significant void in the community, with many individuals and families grappling with the repercussions of the destructive blaze. The Heartbreaking Toll The fire claimed the lives of approximately 100 people, a tragedy that has deeply affected the entire community. While the outcome was better than initially feared, the loss of lives and the destruction of the town's downtown area remains a poignant reminder of the catastrophic event. Navigating the Aftermath Despite the devastation, the resilience and unity of the community have been evident as individuals come together to support one another and rebuild what was lost. Efforts to address the aftermath of the fire have been ongoing, with individuals and organizations collaborating to provide aid and assistance to those affected by the disaster. The impact of the Lahaina fire serves as a stark reminder of the importance of preparedness and community support in the face of natural disasters. Redefining Success: Prioritizing Family and Happiness As I continue to navigate through the complexities of business and life, my perspective on success has undergone a significant transformation. While ambitious goals and professional achievements have always been integral to my journey, the paramount importance of family and personal happiness has become increasingly evident. Embracing Familial Priorities Amidst the pursuit of entrepreneurial endeavors and professional growth, the invaluable role of family has emerged as a cornerstone of my priorities. The joy and fulfillment derived from spending quality time with my wife and children have become non-negotiable aspects of my life, shaping my decisions and actions in profound ways. Reevaluating Work-Life Dynamics Recognizing the perpetual balancing act between work and personal life, I have adopted a deliberate approach to redefining success. Embracing the notion that happiness and contentment are the ultimate measures of achievement, I have embarked on a journey to recalibrate my professional commitments in alignment with my personal values. Setting boundaries and constraints on my time has empowered me to prioritize family engagements and meaningful experiences, fostering a harmonious equilibrium between work and personal life. By reassessing the significance of my professional engagements and endeavoring to derive genuine fulfillment from each pursuit, I have cultivated a renewed sense of purpose and satisfaction. Embracing a mindset that values holistic well-being and emotional fulfillment has catalyzed a profound shift in my approach to decision-making, enabling me to prioritize endeavors that resonate with my core values and aspirations. Implementing the "Better Life Wheel" for Balanced Goal-Setting One powerful tool that has significantly impacted my life is the "Better Life Wheel," a comprehensive approach to evaluating and setting goals across various aspects of life. It's a simple yet effective method that provides a holistic perspective on personal growth and fulfillment. Assessing Ten Key Areas The "Better Life Wheel" encompasses ten fundamental areas, including health and fitness, finances, career, parenting, relationships, environment, spirituality, personal growth, and more. Each of these aspects plays a crucial role in shaping a fulfilling and balanced life. Rating and Prioritizing Using a scale of one to ten, I assess my current satisfaction and progress in each area, shading a pie chart to visually represent my ratings. By identifying the three lowest performing areas, I prioritize setting specific and achievable goals for improvement in these aspects. This approach ensures that I address all facets of my life, fostering a well-rounded and purpose-driven pursuit of success and fulfillment. Quarterly Reevaluation Recognizing the dynamic nature of personal growth and life circumstances, I regularly revisit the "Better Life Wheel" every quarter. This practice allows me to adapt my goals and focus areas based on evolving priorities and experiences, ensuring continual alignment with my aspirations and values. Implementing the "Better Life Wheel" has been instrumental in fostering a balanced and purpose-driven approach to goal-setting, enabling me to pursue holistic fulfillment and growth across all aspects of life. The Importance of Adaptable Goals Setting adaptable, goals is crucial for aligning aspirations with current perspectives and motivations. Traditional annual goal-setting may lead to misaligned objectives, as desires and priorities evolve over time. By embracing goals that resonate with present emotions and ambitions, individuals can cultivate a more authentic and purpose-driven pursuit of success. Aligning Goals with Current Emotions Embracing Adaptability in Goal-Setting Cultivating Authentic and Purpose-Driven Pursuits Lessons Learned from Leaving Biggerpockets Leaving a long-standing professional endeavor is a significant decision that requires careful consideration and strategic planning. My departure from BiggerPockets was driven by a culmination of personal and professional realizations, ultimately leading me to embark on a new trajectory in my entrepreneurial journey. Persistence Through Challenges My experience at BiggerPockets, particularly working alongside a dedicated and persistent entrepreneur like Josh Dork, instilled in me the invaluable lesson of persisting through the inevitable challenges and lows that accompany any entrepreneurial venture. Recognizing the "dip" in business and persisting through it has been a transformative mindset shift that continues to guide my approach to navigating obstacles and setbacks. Building a Bridge to New Identity Transitioning to a new professional identity involved meticulous groundwork and intentional cultivation of a distinct persona, ensuring a seamless transition and a sense of purpose in my new endeavors. By establishing a solid foundation for my new identity and aspirations, I mitigated the potential challenges of feeling lost or adrift after departing from my previous professional role. Embracing a multifaceted identity beyond my association with BiggerPockets enabled a smooth and confident transition into a new phase of my career. Recognizing the Tipping Point Understanding the tipping point between personal fulfillment and professional alignment is instrumental in determining the right time to transition from a current role to new opportunities. It's crucial to assess when the scale tips towards individual growth and advancement, signaling readiness for a new chapter. Strategic Timing and Preparation Timing the departure from a professional role requires a strategic balance of personal readiness, skill development, financial stability, and the establishment of a new professional identity. Building a robust skillset, reputation, and financial stability before embarking on a new venture is pivotal in ensuring a smooth and sustainable transition. Recognizing the point of readiness to pursue independent endeavors, driven by the confidence in one's abilities and the potential for greater personal and professional fulfillment, is a critical aspect of strategic career transitions. Educating Children on Alternative Paths in Life As a parent, I am passionate about instilling in my children the understanding that traditional societal norms do not define their potential paths in life. I encourage them to think outside the box and explore unconventional avenues for their education and future careers. Empowering Entrepreneurial Thinking I believe in nurturing an entrepreneurial mindset in my children, emphasizing the importance of creativity, problem-solving, and innovative approaches to achieving their goals. By exposing them to diverse opportunities and encouraging their entrepreneurial endeavors, I aim to broaden their perspectives on success and fulfillment. Fostering Critical Thinking and Questioning Encouraging my children to question the status quo and challenge conventional norms empowers them to think critically and consider alternative paths to achieving their aspirations. By fostering an environment that values curiosity and independent thinking, I aim to instill in them the confidence to explore unconventional routes and embrace non-traditional methods of learning and personal development. Empowering them to question societal constructs and preconceived notions fosters a sense of autonomy and self-directed decision-making, enabling them to navigate their futures with confidence and resilience. Supporting Entrepreneurial Ventures When my children express entrepreneurial ideas or innovative solutions to challenges, I actively support and provide resources to nurture their ventures. Embracing their creativity and initiative, I seek to cultivate an environment where they feel empowered to explore diverse paths and pursue their passions.

The discussion also delves into the impact of social media algorithms on content consumption and the importance of managing time spent on social media. The conversation concludes with advice on navigating the digital landscape and the guest's contact information for further inquiries. Takeaways Player tracking and promotions are common strategies used in both gaming industries and social media platforms to increase engagement and revenue. Regulation plays a role in determining the odds and hold of casino games, while algorithms determine the content shown on social media platforms. In-game purchases and microtransactions can be addictive and have the potential to impact daily life and financial well-being. It is important to monitor and educate children on social media usage to ensure a healthy relationship with technology. Managing time and consumption on social media is crucial for maintaining a balanced and mindful digital presence. 00:00 Background and Experience in Casino Gaming 06:05 Player Tracking and Promotions in Casinos 10:02 Regulation and Odds in Casino Games 12:26 Rewarding Top Players in Casinos 14:41 Similarities Between Social Media and Gaming 18:09 Creating an E-commerce Experience on Social Media 20:46 The Role of Algorithms in Social Media 23:05 Microtransactions and In-Game Purchases 30:59 Promotions and Competition in Gaming 32:28 The Addictive Nature of In-Game Purchases 34:20 The Impact of In-Game Purchases on Daily Life 36:29 The Role of Promotions in Gaming and Social Media 38:33 The Influence of Algorithms on Social Media 44:42 Monitoring and Educating Children on Social Media 57:26 The Impact of Social Media on Information Consumption 01:00:11 Managing Time and Consumption on Social Media 01:02:53 Conclusion and Contact Information Mental health conditions, such as depression or anxiety, are real, common and treatable.

Leading MASLD patient advocates Jeff McIntyre (Global Liver Institute), Milan Mishkovikj (European Liver Patients Association), Tony Villiotti (NASH kNOWledge) and Wayne Eskridge (Fatty Liver Foundation) describe their respective organizations' priority 2024 MASH programs to co-hosts Louise Campbell and Roger Green. In this conversation, the advocates each describe their respective organizations' top project for 2024. Wayne Eskridge goes first, describing the Fatty Liver Foundation's annual "flagship" study, The State of NAFLD and NASH Care in America. This study, which has been going on for "a few years," surveys patients' experiences around diagnosis and treatment of their SLDs. This year, which increased focus on non-invasive testing and the anticipated availability of a MASH drug, should yield particularly interesting results. Tony Villiotti talks about the extensive "liver awareness" education work NASH kNOWledge is conducting with over 250 schools and community centers in the Pittsburgh area. As part of NASH kNOWledge's ongoing effort to communicate to children on their own level, Tony anticipates his 10-year-old grandson accompanying the team this year, dressed in a "Livvy the Liver" costume. Milan Mishkovikj discusses a program where ELPA leadership conducts liver screenings at the European Parliament in Brussels, which provides opportunities not only to teach legislators and executives about their liver disease but also to learn their own liver health status. Jeff McIntyre discusses GLI's Advanced Advocacy Academy, or A3, a program to create and educate liver health advocates across the globe. To use Jeff's phrase, the program is starting to "grow roots" and become a self-sustaining year-round activity. Louise Campbell notes that the common theme in all four programs is that they are patient-focused, and most are children-focused. Roger's final question is to ask what will constitute success for each organization over the next 12 months. The answers vary in specifics but carry the basic themes of education, access and drug approval common to the rest of the conversation.

Today on Mushroom Hour we are excited to chat with internationally renowned wild foods expert, wilderness skills teacher and founder of “Rural Courses”, Michael White. Michael caught the foraging bug young and early experiences of loading sheep feed buckets full of field fungi and eating them piled high on buttered toast, sentenced Michal to a life dedicated to the hunt! Foraging for plants and fungi rubbed shoulders with hunting, fishing, and farming to the extent that eating from the land became his norm and to buy from the shops an uneasy extravagance. Four years in London studying classical singing was enough to confirm that city life, or that of an opera singer was not for him and on graduating he flung himself into almost total self-sufficiency. Skills learned in childhood became essential tools for putting food on the table and driven by necessity, his foraging abilities improved rapidly. In his early 20's Michael began teaching foraging and self-sufficiency skills. This side of life has grown into a new passion, taking him into cities, other countries, schools, but mostly the forest, to inspire and educate thousands of people about the awesome word of fungi, foraging and life on the land. Currently life is very full for Michael raising three children, teaching, expanding his understanding about medicinal mushrooms and living off the land. His greatest pleasure is to share knowledge and a love of the natural world with his son and two daughters and the fantastic people he meets through courses and workshops.

What do you do if your doctor tries to push you to do something that goes against your faith? What about your kids? Nurse Coach Nichole Haugen is on the podcast today to share all about how to navigate the world of health care as a catholic. We're covering how to know your rights as a patient and parent, the language to use and listen for, and how to prepare your children for medical decisions. Check out her webinars for nurses HERE **True Presence Podcast August Webinar: SIMPLIFY YOUR SCHOOL YEAR. Save your Seat. Introduction: In this enlightening podcast episode, Kelsey and Nichole Haugen, a Catholic nurse coach and mother of six, discuss the current healthcare atmosphere and its intersection with Theology of the Body and the dignity of the person. As healthcare workers face burnout and cultural shifts, Catholic parents grapple with questions about their parental rights and ethical decisions, including issues surrounding birth control and abortion. Nichole offers valuable insights and advice to empower Catholic moms in making informed healthcare choices. Key Points: 1. Understanding the Current Healthcare Atmosphere: Nichole highlights the burnout and stress faced by healthcare workers post-pandemic, leading to various challenges, including issues concerning parental rights. 2. Know Your Parental Rights: As a Catholic mom, it is crucial to be aware of your parental rights in your state. You have the right to refuse treatments and services for your children, ensuring they receive the care that aligns with your values. 3. Asserting Yourself Gracefully: In countercultural situations, it can be challenging to assert your beliefs without feeling judged. Nichole advises using respectful language and having go-to phrases to confidently communicate your decisions without the need for extensive explanations. 4. Recognizing Disguised Terminology: In a rapidly evolving healthcare landscape, some terms may be used to downplay the ethical implications of certain treatments. Nichole warns about how terms like "conception" have been redefined and how that may hide the abortifacient nature of treatments like the morning after pill, and encourages asking questions and seeking advice when uncertain. 5. Educating Children about Ethical Healthcare: As a mom, Nichole emphasizes the importance of educating children about their bodies and healthcare choices. Honest discussions about the Church's teachings and using informative resources help prepare them for future medical decisions. Conclusion: This podcast sheds light on the challenges faced by Catholic moms in navigating the healthcare system, preserving their parental rights, and making ethical decisions. Nichole's insights and advice provide valuable guidance for Catholic parents to confidently advocate for their children's well-being while remaining true to their faith.

Mental Health education in children is critical to making long term change in society and today's guest is dedicating herself to this cause.Margo Ward is the founder and CEO of KidsXpress Life. Her vision and inspiration for this world-first program was bestowed on her by the children she worked with as Head of Play Therapy at the Sydney Children's Hospital. While working predominantly with chronically ill children within Oncology and ICU, Margo saw the opportunity to broaden the scope of creative approaches to therapy with children, and she began to develop a new model for looking at trauma and grief counselling.In 2005, Margo shared her vision for a unique expressive therapy program with potential investors from the private sector. Margo realised that by uniquely combining music, art, drama and play therapies in a group therapy context, the program would have incredible potential to transform young lives. Investors from across the private & corporate sectors believed in the potential of the program, and so KidsXpress was born. In a short time, Margo established a highly credentialed board (including renowned economist Dr John Hewson as Chair), a talented and passionate team of therapists and sponsors, referral pathways and a robust set of program effectiveness metrics to get the attention of government and other youth support services.In 2011 Margo was awarded a scholarship to attend the Executive Leadership Program at Stanford University, an experience that has not only underpinned the next stages of expansion of her social impact interests but also opened up opportunities to address societal issues on a broader scale.Margo's vision continues to shine through the work of KidsXpress; transforming the lives of hundreds of children, their families and communities through leading expressive therapies.You learn more about Kids Xpress: kidsxpress.org.au...Thanks for listening!

GUEST: ALEX NEWMAN, Journalist and Author, Crimes of the EducatorsIt's axiomatic—the one who teaches children is the one who shapes their worldview, and thus, society at large.The Bible assigns the teaching and training of children to parents. “Train up a child in the way he should go, even when he is old he will not depart from it” (Proverbs 22:6).But of course, God-rejecting man has a “better" idea—remove children from the (redefined) home to be indoctrinated by government “educators” for up to 40 hours each week from age four to 18. With a government that ignores the most important truth in life—God exists and has spoken in Scripture—how do you think that will turn out for the kids?Turns out, just as planned. John Dewey (1859-1952), considered the “Father of the Modern American Public Education System” said: “There is no God and there is no soul. Hence, there are no needs for the props of traditional religion. With dogma and creed excluded, immutable truth is also dead and buried.”In case you're not convinced, Dr. Chester Pierce, Professor of Education and Psychology at Harvard University, said at the Childhood International Education Seminar in 1973:“Every child who enters school at age 5 is mentally ill because he enters school with an allegiance toward our elected officials, our founding fathers, our institutions, the preservation of this form of government we have, patriotism, nationalism, sovereignty… All this proves that the children are sick, because a truly well individual is one who has rejected all those things and is what I would call the international child of the future.”Mission accomplished. Taxpayer-funded, federal government-mandated public education has shaped generations of the “international child” with unsuspecting parents losing almost all influence. The moral confusion that reigns in our children and nation today shouldn't be surprising.International journalist Alex Newman joins us for a second week on The Christian Worldview to discuss what government education has become and what Christian parents should do. Alex is the author Crimes of the Educators: How Utopians Are Using Government Schools to Destroy America's Children, CEO of Liberty Sentinel Media and a senior editor for The New American Magazine.-------------------------------Crimes of the Educators: https://amzn.to/3J1az0WLiberty Sentinel: https://bit.ly/3RRdBsNThe New American Magazine: https://bit.ly/3oo3ZrJ

Dr. Ben Carson - Educating children about America. by John Catsimatidis
American philanthropist Maggie Doyne talks about the benefit of a gap year, finding purpose, and educating children in Nepal to create a better future. Guest Biography Maggie is originally from New Jersey and has dedicated the last 13+ years of her life to educating children and empowering women. Maggie created the BlinkNow Foundation to sustain, grow, and support Kopila Valley Children's Home and School in Nepal, and to serve as a vehicle to share her ideas with young people, especially children in the U.S. Maggie believes that in the blink of an eye, we can all make a difference. At age 19, Maggie used her life savings to build a home for orphaned children in war-ravaged Nepal. Since then, she has helped provide a loving home to over 50 children. In 2010, BlinkNow opened a school for the region's most impoverished children. The school now serves 400 students and is rated top in the region. Maggie was named 2015 CNN Hero of the Year. She was honored by the Dalai Lama as an Unsung Hero of Compassion in 2014. Her work was championed by Pulitzer Prize-winning columnist Nicholas Kristof in a cover story for The New York Times Magazine. In 2012, Maggie shared her story at the Forbes 400 Summit on Philanthropy, and in 2013 she received the Forbes Award for Excellence in Education. Her work has been recognized by Elizabeth Gilbert, Katie Couric, and Prince Harry and Duchess Meghan of Sussex. While Maggie's work as CEO is focused on Nepal, she speaks all over the world in the hope of inspiring others to start projects of their own that will generate positive change. She shares her memoir in Between the Mountain and the Sky: A Mother's Story of Love, Loss, Healing, and Hope — released in March, 2022. This episode is brought to you by Seeking Alpha.

Katharine Birbalsingh has been described as 'Britain's strictest headteacher'. Twitter erupted when she tweeted that 'original sin' was responsible for the fact children need to be habituated into choosing good over evil. She discusses child education and human nature with Christian leader Steve Chalke, founder of numerous Oasis Trust schools, who says that 'original goodness' is a more biblical view than 'original sin'.
