    The American College of Family Medicine and the Fight for Hippocratic Medicine

    Dr. Mike Chupp is joined by three members of the American College of Family Medicine (ACFM), a nonprofit organization dedicated to preserving and promoting Hippocratic Family Medicine. The discussion centers on the origins of ACFM, the challenges facing family medicine today, and the importance of providing a unified voice for life-affirming physicians navigating complex moral, ethical, and cultural issues. Topics include conscience protections, physician advocacy, medical education, and efforts to preserve evidence-based patient care, as well as why engagement within the profession, rather than withdrawal, is the most effective way to influence the future of family medicine and support physicians whose values have often gone unrepresented.

    GLP-1s: A Theological & Ethical Look at Weight Loss, Human Limits, and Flourishing

    In part two of this conversation on GLP-1 receptor agonists, Dr. Mike Chupp is joined by Dr. Kymberli Cook, a systematic theologian, Assistant Director of the Hendricks Center, and adjunct professor at Dallas Theological Seminary, to explore the deeper theological and ethical dimensions of these medications. Dr. Cook specializes in theological anthropology, the study of what it means to be human in relation to God, and brings that lens to bear on some of medicine’s most pressing questions: Are our creaturely limits something to overcome or embrace? Where does therapy end and enhancement begin? And how should Christian healthcare professionals faithfully navigate the medical and technological advancements that increasingly shape our bodies, our limitations, and our health? This episode invites you to move beyond the clinical conversation and consider what it means to be a faithful steward of the bodies God has given us.

    Dr. Leah Snodgrass joins host Dr. Mike Chupp for a conversation about the mental health crisis facing children and adolescents today. Rates of anxiety and depression among young people have doubled since the pandemic, yet access to care, especially in rural and underserved communities, remains critically out of reach. Dr. Snodgrass is a child and adolescent psychiatrist and Chair of Psychiatry at Lincoln Memorial University’s College of Osteopathic Medicine, and she has spent her career on the front lines of this crisis.

    The Hidden Cost of Excellence: Dr. Bill Claytor on Burnout, Perfectionism, and Faith in Dentistry and Healthcare

    Dr. Bill Claytor, a dentist, educator, and Executive Director of North Carolina Caring Dental Professionals, joins host Dr. Mike Chupp and co-host Dr. Bill Griffin, CMDA’s Senior Vice President, for a conversation on what so many in healthcare quietly wrestle with: the perfectionism, isolation, and burnout that can take root when the drive to serve others becomes something heavier. A nationally recognized voice on clinician wellbeing and recipient of the American Dental Association’s 2025 Distinguished Service Award, Dr. Claytor brings both professional expertise and personal insight to a topic the profession doesn’t always make room to discuss openly.

    Following the Evidence: Dr. Scot Glasberg on the ASPS Stand Against Gender Surgery for Children & Adolescents

    Few voices carry more weight on this issue than Dr. Scot Glasberg, a world-renowned plastic surgeon and past president of the American Society of Plastic Surgeons. He sits down with host Dr. Mike Chupp and regular co-host Dr. Brick Lantz to tackle one of modern medicine’s most contentious and ideologically charged debates: the use of hormones and surgery on children and adolescents struggling with gender confusion. Earlier this year, Dr. Glasberg made waves by leading the ASPS to release a landmark position statement calling on the medical community to cease performing gender affirming surgery on anyone under 19, an evidence-based stance that took considerable courage and reverberated throughout healthcare.
