In this premiere episode, co-hosts Paula and Melinda introduce themselves, their hearts for nursing, and the vision behind The Anchored Nurse podcast. This episode dives into the powerful metaphor of being anchored in Christ amid the emotional, spiritual, and physical demands of the nursing profession.
Drawing inspiration from the key verse Hebrews 6:19 —
“This hope we have as an anchor of the soul, both sure and steadfast, and which enters the Presence behind the veil” (NKJV) —
the conversation explores how Christian nurses can stay grounded during difficult shifts, moral dilemmas, burnout, grief, and the unknown.
Together, Paula and Melinda reflect on how faith provides stability in the chaos of healthcare. They share personal stories of holding on to hope, introduce the format of future episodes, and discuss what it means to live as a nurse with an "anchored soul."
Listeners will hear about the podcast’s core purpose: to encourage, equip, and uplift Christian nurses through storytelling, Scripture, prayer, and real conversations about the highs and lows of the profession.
