The practice of health care providers at all levels brings you into contact with people from a variety of faiths. This calls for knowledge and understanding of a diversity of faith expressions; for the purpose of this course, the focus will be on the Christian worldview.
Based on "Case Study: End of Life Decisions," the Christian worldview, and the worldview questions presented in the required topic study materials you will complete an ethical analysis of George's situation and his decision from the perspective of the Christian worldview.
Provide a 1,500-2,000-word ethical analysis while answering the following questions:
- How would George interpret his suffering in light of the Christian narrative, with an emphasis on the fallenness of the world?
- How would George interpret his suffering in light of the Christian narrative, with an emphasis on the hope of resurrection?
- As George contemplates life with amyotrophic lateral sclerosis (ALS), how would the Christian worldview inform his view about the value of his life as a person?
- What sorts of values and considerations would the Christian worldview focus on in deliberating about whether or not George should opt for euthanasia?
- Given the above, what options would be morally justified in the Christian worldview for George and why?

Executive summary
The decisions concerning the end of life issues are a sensitive and complicated matter.
It needs to be handled with compassion, care, and a lot of focus. The patients come up with
severe problems that ruin the comfortability of medical professionals in terms of thinking. If a
patient would seek to commit suicide, it becomes a difficulty for the care providers to support
such a move. The fullness of the wound creates a way to come up with a mechanism to aid
those who are less fortunate.
George is professionally qualified and already providing for the family. However, the
issue of the ALS diagnosis Christian worldview represents life as a gift and a sacred thing that
comes as a blessing from God. Christians believe we do not encourage any form of talking
own life. Therefore, the case of euthanasia is not supported at all by Christians in any way as
it’s considered as taking life away.

Case analysis
Introduction
The decisions concerning the end of life issues are a sensitive and challenging matter
(Crane, 2018). It needs to be handled with compassion, care, and a lot of focus. Such
problems require a lot of motivation when a person, exceptionally a professional, is dealing
with patients in that state. In this case, giving hope becomes an essential aspect of the case.
On the other hand, patients found it challenging to make decisions when in critical
health conditions. The patients come up with difficult issues that ruin the comfortability of
medical professionals in terms of thinking. The care providers find themselves in a difficult
situation, but still, they have to give advice and compassion. Again, they help in coming up
with the right decision. Generally, if a patient would seek to commit suicide, it becomes a
difficulty for the care providers to support such a move. However, the ultimate decision to end
life does not fall on the hands of the caregivers. Care providers will only condemn but have
no power to create a verdict on it. The paper will look at the case involving the end of life
and the situation George finds himself.
From the Christian views, consoling others is the way to go. The fullness of the wound
creates a way to come up with a mechanism to aid those who are less fortunate. Usually,
unfortunate situations can occur at any time. Georges and his entire family face such
moments. The fall of refers back to the times of the first man and woman. When Adam and
Eve were created, they went ahead top disobey their creator by doing things they had been
disallowed. This was where the fall of humans started, and history was written that all men

are now sinners. According to the biblical and Christian views, no one knows whether people
could have lived forever without death or the fall brought death circumstances. George uses
the Christian narratives in evaluating the situations and circumstances happening in the world,
especially concerning him. Biblical teachings show that the fall that came could imply the
inhabitants of the world (PHI-413V, T3, 2019). In his case, the issues of diseases, sin, and
death came about and affected people. George finds himself in the fall situation.
George interprets what he goes through, which is unfair to him. His suffering comes at
a time he has a family that includes his wife and a son. George is professionally qualified and
already providing for the family. However, the issue of the ALS diagnosis creates a block to
his life; George, therefore, goes through hard times as he thinks of the illness he faces. In the
christen views, there is healing in God. Moreover, the issue of salvation becomes a motivating
factor, as all Christians believe that Christ came to the world to end suffering. In this
perspective, there is hope for George that the pain he goes through has an end. In this line of
thinking and beliefs, Christians have faith in the healing of tier body wounds. It also affirms
that God would empower them. Reflecting on such views, George can trust the peace of mind
will come to him having faith. The biblical story of the resurrection offers ease of thinking
and worries to George. This allows him to cool from lots of tension; hence, he can respond to
treatment and still focus on his entire family. Although death is sure to him, he can have hope
that one day, he will also resurrect as the resurrection of Jesus in the bible happened (PHI413V, T4, 2019). In this case, Christians are not subject to peris...
