Find Your People: Community in Nursing School

Hi! Welcome back to the Scrubbed In & Spirit Led podcast! We are a chapter of Nurses Christian Fellowship based in Rapid City, SD. Our mission is to encourage, equip, and empower nursing and pre-nursing students to be God’s light in the nursing field.   In this week’s episode, your co-hosts, Kirsten and Mackenna, welcome a special guest! They interview NCF Rapid City’s very own faculty advisor, Amanda Mehlhaff – a lover of Jesus, mom, wife, educator, and friend. Together, they discuss the importance of community, especially in nursing school.   Tune in to hear from a nursing educator herself about just how vital community is. From a faculty perspective, Amanda has seen students flourish when they have a sense of belonging and life outside of nursing school. She has also witnessed the devastating effects when students become isolated and develop “tunnel vision" during nursing school. This podcast is great for anyone at any stage of life, especially if you’re struggling to find community and want to get plugged in. Listen as these three offer advice and personal insight on how a Christ-centered community has gotten them through the craziness of life. After all, God never intended for us to do life alone – He intended for us to be surrounded by one another so we could all lead each other closer to Him.  Hebrews 10:24-25 NLT says, “Let us think of ways to motivate one another to acts of love and good works. And let us not neglect our meeting together, as some people do, but encourage one another, especially now that the day of his return is drawing near.”  Stay tuned for more faith-filled episodes that are real and honest where we’ll dive into God’s Word, have guest speakers, share testimonies, and more.   Follow on Instagram @ncfrapidcity and Facebook at Nurses Christian Fellowship – Rapid City.
