Today's episode of the Dad Tired Podcast is brought to you by Samaritan Ministries.

When it comes to choosing your healthcare provider, one of the most frustrating things can be

0:07.8

network restrictions, but there's another way. Samaritan Ministries is a community of

0:11.3

Christians who actually pay one another's medical bills without the use of insurance.

0:14.8

As a Samaritan member, you can choose the doctors, the treatments, the hospitals that are

0:18.4

right for you and your family. Just consider this. A medical emergency arises. You don't have

0:22.8

to check with an insurance company to ask which hospital to go to. You just go.

Alrina, so excited to be hanging out with you today. I saw the title of your book and I thought,

1:12.3

man, that's probably going to be a huge and helpful resource to a lot of families.

1:17.6

So I want to jump into that. But before we do, just tell us who you are and what you're up to these days.

1:22.1

Well, thank you so much, first of all, for having me on the podcast. I appreciate it.

1:26.1

Yeah. My name is Alrina Evans, and I live in Pennsylvania with my husband and five children,

1:31.8

and we have some different special needs in the next. I'm a writer by vocation. I'm a dancer
