This week we hear how Peter, America’s Caregiver, saved a calf. Peter asks, for some, what will be a hard question, what activity causes you to lose track of time? A look at Standing With Hope and our hymn, “This is the Day!”

What comforts a Caregiver? What brings comfort to you? Peter offers his comfort along with why he bothers to do this program for other caregivers. And we take a close-up look at the hymn, Have Thine Own Way.

This was moving week for Peter and Gracie, and we hear some of the details of the new digs. Peter offers us a new term; Formidable Arc and we learn about one of our favorite hymns, This Is My Father’s World.

Dr. Barry Jacobs, Clinical Psychologist, author and like Peter, is an A A R P contributor, is Peter’s guest for this week. They discuss how a family dynamic can play a huge role in the well being of the one in need of care as well as the caregiver. They also discuss Dr. Jacob’s book, The Caregiver Answer Book.

Peter shared part two of the conversation with Dr. Jessica Peck from her AFR program, Dr. Nurse Mamma.

Dr. Jessica Peck, a pediatric nurse practitioner as well as a professor, author, and mother of four, invited Peter on her program to talk about Peter’s latest book, in one of, what we hope will be many talks to come. Peter and she have an amazing rapport as they chatted about caregiving. 

This week on Hope For the caregiver, Peter challenges us to, “Ride Out and Meet Them”, and we are encouraged by the hymn, Blessed is the Tie That Binds.

This week Peter looks at what might be called the universal spiritual  lubricant for our lives and a street called straight. He then shares a bit of his conversation with DJ & Jessica Rowland about Huntington’s Disease before looking at the hymn of the week, “Turn Your Eyes Upon Jesus”.

This Week we hear part two of Peter’s intriguing and helpful conversation with Jess Ronee and the hymn, Be Still My Soul, which has brought comfort to so many believers dealing with difficult life issues.

We continue to look at things that Caregivers must deal with but are not willing or able to talk about. Are you doing a disservice to yourself by making what you do as a caregiver look too easy? To whom are you able to confide all of the things that keep you from sleeping? We also look deeply at the hymn, Rescue the Perishing by Fanny Crosby.

Happy anniversary Peter & Gracie! Peter focuses a great deal on his relationship with Gracie, and a brief glimpse of the Jay Leno conversation Peter had opportunity to share with us. We also have the pleasures of hearing Gracie’s singing our hymn for the week, Breathe on Me Breath of God.

One of the F. O. Gs of caregiving is Obligation and Peter tackles that for us this week with some simple concepts that he has learned the hard way. We also take a deep dive into The Doxology which is so, very helpful in itself.

Peter continues his conversation with life-long friend, Nancy Comish as once again we hear how God uses the broken and heals the hearts of caregivers. We look at another hymn that caregivers can meditate upon and make application for our own souls.

Nancy Comish | Wellness in the Middle of Life

Nancy Comish is a life-long friend of Gracie’s and a caregiver of many. She knows intimately the pitfalls of putting others before your own well-being and has paid the price. Peter’s conversation with her goes beyond friendship and our prayer is her example will give inspiration to caregivers, who are most of all, precious children of God.

He allows what He hates to accomplish what He Loves – that’s one of Peter’s themes this week on Hope For The Caregiver, as well as asking the question, “Why do faith healers wear glasses”? We get some insight into the Hymn, “Praise to The Lord” and a reminder that we can help with mobility trouble when we partner with Peter & Gracie through Standing With Hope.

We look at yet another of the facets of Hard Things for caregivers – resentment that comes from our daily grind and considering that, Peter would have us bury “Great is Thy Faithfulness”, deep with our souls.

Happy Independence Weekend! We look at more hard things that caregivers experience daily – praying for mercy that comes from watching the suffering of those we care for and we look at the history of “How Great Thou Art”.

Peter challenges us to a better understanding of what it looks like to be a caregiver – are we digging for gold or getting upset because of the dirt. 30 Hymns every Christian caregiver should know and we hear from Gracie!

Gracie & Peter are home! And even as they celebrate, the battles for the caregivers roll on. Peter is now mostly on his own caring for Gracie, and we know how daunting it can be…But God! Prayer is continually part of the believer’s duty and they are more than grateful for yours.

Peter’s conversation with Cevernce MacLaupglin is a must hear and there is more of it at peterrosenberger.com.

Healthy Caregivers Make Better Caregivers! That’s Peter’s moto and he helps us deep-dive into some of the mechanics of becoming a healthier caregiver, physically, spiritually, and emotionally.
