If you want a Christ centered organization, it's all about the people you hire. For 4 decades, Lawndale Christian Health Center has been a model for many of the health ministries across CCHF. Dr. Wayne Detmer, the chief clinical officer of operations has been a key player in hiring the right people for their medical team. A team that's kept Lawndale on mission and made it a great place for them to live out their calling. Wayne has been a great friend and a partner in the work.
He served on the CCHF board. He's now on his 2nd term. He's always generous with his time and his incredible intellect. I hope you'll enjoy our chat about his journey and his insights into building a mission faithful health center.
Setting a culture of calling, being proximate to suffering, bringing the right kind of people into your team. These are the skills that Wayne Detmer brings that makes Lawndale a special place. And is, of course, it's all by the grace of God. If you've never been to Lawndale, I encourage you to visit sometime. Wayne would love to give you the "Buck 50" Tour. I hope you're encouraged to make your organization the kind of place where people who see medicine as a calling to show and share the love of Christ can find a home.
