You’re the Cure w/ Dr. Ben Edwards

Every system seems to be under scrutiny lately — medical, financial, political. This week, Dr. Ben Edwards turns to one that's often overlooked: education. And this time, it's a good news story.

Sarah Byers never planned to open a school. But a thought she couldn't shake — paired with a season of watching her son struggle to connect what he saw with what it meant — turned into Legacy Cornerstone Academy, a new Lubbock school built around a simple question: what if we helped kids become who God created them to be, instead of just moving them through a grade level?

Joining Sarah is Cassidy Luna, nurse practitioner at Veritas Medical and founder of Resilient Beginnings, who's spent years studying the difference between the brain and the mind — and why so many kids get labeled ADHD or dyslexic when the real issue is a missed developmental milestone. Cassidy breaks down primitive reflexes, why visualization is the highest form of childhood development, and how movement, not medication, often unlocks a child's ability to learn.

Together, Sarah and Cassidy walk through what a day at Legacy looks like, how classical curriculum and developmental therapy work side by side, and why removing comparison and labels changes everything for kids — and their confidence.

If you've ever wondered whether there's a better way to raise and educate kids, this conversation will give you real hope — and real answers.

Enrollment for Legacy Cornerstone Academy is open now at legacycornerstoneacademy.com. Learn more about Resilient Beginnings at resilientbeginning.com.

Dr. Ben Edwards welcomes back Abraham John for a deep dive into what he calls the defining question of our time: what does God's original design for government actually look like, and why has every human system, from Eden to now, fallen short?

Abraham unpacks why only two governments have ever existed from Genesis to Revelation, why government itself is a spiritual entity, and how the Tree of Life and the Tree of the Knowledge of Good and Evil represent two entirely different operating systems for humanity. He traces the three great rejections of God: Adam's choice, Israel's demand for a king, and the crowd's choice of Barabbas over Jesus, and explains why God doesn't override our choices, even now.

This conversation reframes Genesis 1-3 not as a creation story but as God's architectural blueprint for life, family, health, and government. Abraham explains why Jesus never came to reform Rome or any political system, why "repent" (metanoia) means going beyond our current mindset rather than feeling guilty, and why real healing, whether national, cultural, or personal, has to start inside the individual human heart before it can show up anywhere else.

If you've felt the world waking up but haven't heard real solutions, this episode points back to the beginning: God's original intent, and why that's where freedom actually lives.

This week on You're the Cure, Dr. Ben welcomes back Leif Hetland for a deep dive into his book Called To Reign. Leif unpacks his "three chairs" framework: Chair One (identity in Christ, rooted in love), Chair Two (the orphan spirit, living for approval instead of from it), and Chair Three (the world). He shows how easily believers slide from resting in sonship into striving, fear, and performance without even noticing.

They talk about why intimacy with the Father, not information or willpower, is what actually keeps us anchored in Chair One, and how fatigue, unmet expectations, and constant news cycles quietly drain the "emotional tank" that leaves the door open for fear. Leif shares stories from Nigeria, Pakistan, and his own health struggles that show what it looks like to receive identity, intimacy, and inheritance before ever stepping into destiny, and why trying to skip straight to "doing" is exactly backwards.

If you've ever felt like you're squeezing out the wrong thing under pressure, this conversation is an invitation to trade striving for rest, and pressure for the Father's pleasure.

What if disease isn't a mutation but a signal your body stopped receiving? Jamie Winship returns to You're the Cure to unpack his new book, The War of Worldviews, and it starts with a declassified CIA document that reframes what your thoughts are actually doing to your cells. Dr. Ben and Jamie trace the two worldviews that have shaped humanity since Genesis: Empire (separation, scarcity, control) and Kingdom (connection, mystery, true identity), and why most of us are unknowingly stuck operating from the wrong one. They get into why knowing who you are matters more than fixing what you do, the six stages of empire collapse and where the U.S. sits on that timeline right now, and how small, connected communities (not politics) are what actually turn a culture around. If Living Fearless changed how you saw yourself, this one goes even deeper.

Janet Newberry joins Dr. Ben Edwards to share what happened when she and her husband Doug went through Veritas Wellness's 90-Day Reset, and how it uncovered something deeper than diet and movement. Janet had known her identity in Christ for years, yet still carried chronic tension, high blood pressure, and fear around her own health. Through the reset, she discovered that true beliefs need the right environment to take root: as she puts it, "knowing you are a beloved child of God while living in a closed system is like knowing you are a salmon while living in a parking lot."

Janet traces her story from a fear-based religious upbringing and her mother's struggle with mental illness, through a hospitalization for a perforated appendix, to finally seeing normal blood pressure readings for the first time in her adult life. Along the way, she and Ben unpack the parallel between inflamed cholesterol and inflamed hearts, why "receiving" is the hardest word for most people to practice, and how the same principles that heal bodies can heal families, marriages, and even how we tell our financial stories. It's a conversation about safety, peace, and what it actually takes for truth to flourish.
