Peds Faculty ,

Highly recommended

For physicians and other healthcare workers motivated to provide care to all with the love of Christ, this podcast provides encouragement! I highly recommend it.

Countrydoc61 ,

Excellent resource!

I am a family physician in rural WV and the topics and guests do a great job of keeping me informed of what is going on in the world and our nation and as a Christian, how I can and should respond.

jgraham1982 ,

Excellent essential podcast for the Christian physician

This podcast provides light, hope and sound science to encourage Christian healthcare workers. It is one of a kind and ESSENTIAL for Christian doctors who feel they are in no man’s land currently as they don’t fit in with secular medicine culture and are also existing outside the all too often anti-science stance of evangelical Christians.
