In this episode, Dr. Betters answers the question, "Dr. Betters, I have a question about relationships and marriage. A woman has been in a 17-year relationship without marrying and has two children, and the father of the children leaves her for another woman. The woman finds salvation, and lives by God's commandments. Can she marry a good Christian man? Or must she wait until the father of her children passes away to be eligible for marriage under God’s law? She has never been married before or currently and wishes to marry one day, if it is God’s will."
Dr. Chuck Betters, drawing from his own faith struggles—especially the tragic loss of his sixteen-year-old son, Mark—has assisted countless individuals facing similar challenges over more than five decades of ministry. He finds hope in the belief that God is sovereign and can be trusted.
In a world filled with brokenness and despair, "Ask Dr. Betters" is a unique video forum where Dr. Betters and his guests provide clear, biblical answers to life’s pressing questions about suffering and living by faith in a broken world.

Cardiac Cowboys
The heart was always off-limits to surgeons. Cutting into it spelled instant death for the patient. That is, until a ragtag group of doctors scattered across the Midwest and Texas decided to throw out the rule book. Working in makeshift laboratories and home garages, using medical devices made from scavenged machine parts and beer tubes, these men and women invented the field of open heart surgery. Odds are, someone you know is alive because of them. So why has history left them behind? Presented by Chris Pine, CARDIAC COWBOYS tells the gripping true story behind the birth of heart surgery, and the young, Greatest Generation doctors who made it happen. For years, they competed and feuded, racing to be the first, the best, and the most prolific. Some appeared on the cover of Time Magazine, operated on kings and advised presidents. Others ended up disgraced, penniless, and convicted of felonies. Together, they ignited a revolution in medicine, and changed the world.
