    Assisted suicide - plenary session | Resident Doctors Conference 2025

    In the past year, politicians in Westminster and Holyrood have taken active steps towards implementing assisted suicide laws in the UK. In the plenary from this year's CMF Resident Doctors Conference, Dr Susan Marriott (CMF's Head of Public Policy) surveys the political landscape and considers what the coming years could hold. How, she asks, can Christian resident doctors and other Christian health professionals shine for Christ as this debate unfolds and into whatever lies ahead? She is joined in a Q&A session by CMF CEO Dr Mark Pickering and the main speaker at this year's conference, Dr Paul Coulter.  You can find more of CMF's resources on the topic at cmf.li/AssistedSuicideResources Support the show

    Reconciled by Christ | Talk 1 | Resident Doctors Conference 2025

    Surrounded as we are by philosophies of self-help, mindfulness, manifesting, and resilience, it's easy to lose confidence in Jesus Christ. As Christian health professionals, we need to recover an approach to life and work that is grounded in him. That is what the Apostle Paul presents to us in his letter to the Colossian church. Dr Paul Coulter's opening talk at the 2025 CMF Resident Doctors Conference digs into the first two chapters of this letter and explores how Jesus is supreme in everything and is all we need to live life to the full.
