    A Conversation with Dr. Esther Kim of Ethne Health | 2025 CCHF Conference Plenary Speaker

    CCHF CEO, Dr. Rick Donlon talks with Dr. Esther Kim about her work at Ethne Health and about her plenary at the upcoming 2025 CCHF Conference.  Esther, originally from Malaysia, spent much of her school years in Texas. After a transformative experience at Summer Medical Institute (SMI) in Harlingen, TX, and a student rotation at Christ Community Health Services in Memphis, TN, she pursued a residency in Family Medicine and completed an OB fellowship. With support from various CCHF community mentors, she co-founded Ethne Health in 2017, a community clinic located in Clarkston, Georgia, which is known as the most diverse square mile in the U.S. Currently, Esther serves as the Chief Operating Officer of Ethne Health, where she also provides care for patients who speak over 40 languages. She has a deep passion for women's health, as well as for mentoring staff and students. When she’s not in the clinic, Esther enjoys spending time outdoors with her family and in the homes of their neighbors.

  2. The Esperanza Story | Legacy Interview With Ron andCarolyn Klaus

    The Esperanza Story | Legacy Interview With Ron andCarolyn Klaus

    Legacy Series | Ron & Carolyn Klaus Carolyn and Ron Klaus are the founders of Esperanza Health Center in north Philadelphia. They have a remarkable story of living among people in communities that most people avoid, being changed by their experiences in the community, and stepping into needs that they would never have seen had they not been obedient to God and followed him into unlikely places. They have been pioneers in both domestic and international medical missions, church planting, and Christian community development. I have enjoyed time with them over the years, talking about the Kingdom of God, and how to faithfully live that out in the different seasons of life. I sat down with them on July 4th, 2024 in their kitchen which is covered with maps of east Africa and southeast Asia. And asked them to share their story. Jesus said that the key to living an integral life is to “seek first the kingdom of God and his righteousness”. Carolyn and Ron are people whose lives are great examples of that. When they discovered the gospel of the kingdom…medicine, engineering, academics no longer were an end unto themselves, but pathways to express and declare through action that Jesus is Lord over all. If you liked this podcast, please Like and Subscribe and share it with your friends. My prayer is that you will be a follower of Christ who makes learning about, looking for and applying the kingdom of God your top priority. If you want to walk out your calling in healthcare in a way that serves Christ by serving the poorest and most vulnerable of our neighbors, come be part of this CCHF community. Visit the website – CCHF.org – and make plans to join others like you, and like Dr. Klaus, at the next CCHF conference.

    Relatable and Compassionate Patient Care | Learning Series With Chanté Calais-Morgan

    Learning Series | Chanté Calais-Morgan For Such a Time as This: Transforming our Lived Experiences Into Relatable and Compassionate Patient Care. There has been a more recent emphasis on the effects of ACEs (Adverse Childhood Experiences) and application of Trauma Informed Care as it relates to the patient populations that we serve. However, there have not been many studies on how doctors' personal experiences with ACEs or other life changing situations can affect the way that we relate and interact with our patients. This was a workshop presented at the 2024 CCHF Conference by Dr. Chanté Calais-Morgan of Christ Community Health Services in Memphis TN. _______________________________ CCHFTalk is a production of Christian Community Health Fellowship.

    Recruiting For Mission | Legacy Interview With Dr. Wayne Detmer

    If you want a Christ centered organization, it's all about the people you hire. For 4 decades, Lawndale Christian Health Center has been a model for many of the health ministries across CCHF. Dr. Wayne Detmer, the chief clinical officer of operations has been a key player in hiring the right people for their medical team. A team that's kept Lawndale on mission and made it a great place for them to live out their calling. Wayne has been a great friend and a partner in the work. He served on the CCHF board. He's now on his 2nd term. He's always generous with his time and his incredible intellect. I hope you'll enjoy our chat about his journey and his insights into building a mission faithful health center.  Setting a culture of calling, being proximate to suffering, bringing the right kind of people into your team. These are the skills that Wayne Detmer brings that makes Lawndale a special place. And is, of course, it's all by the grace of God. If you've never been to Lawndale, I encourage you to visit sometime. Wayne would love to give you the “Buck 50” Tour. I hope you're encouraged to make your organization the kind of place where people who see medicine as a calling to show and share the love of Christ can find a home.

  6. Facilitator & Activist | Legacy Interview With Jerry Stromberg

    Facilitator & Activist | Legacy Interview With Jerry Stromberg

    Legacy Series | Jerry Stromberg I count as one of the greatest privileges in my life to have followed Jerry Stromberg and been mentored by him in the early days of my time at CCHF. Jerry is still one of the most beloved members of the CCHF community and one of the most brilliant. His incredible career includes academia, research, consulting. He's been the administrator for several health centers and ultimately led CCHF as its director for better part of a decade. He's an extraordinary person with a deep love and appreciation for people that he's met around the country and around the globe. And he's a man who's lived out his convictions, moving into the Lawndale community, building longitudinal relationships with communities in rural Ghana. He's actually been named an honorary elder in one of those communities. And being an activist for justice issues around poverty and the impact it's had on individual and community health. I caught Jerry in Chicago a day before he was heading to Wisconsin to speak at a conference. And I was really grateful that he made time to talk about his history with CCHF and the way this community has developed and impacted him. I love Jerry. What can you say about a guy who has served as faculty on medical schools, served internationally with the World Health Organization, and invested himself in communities and organizations in distress, and yet when asked what part of his life brought him the greatest pride, it was the times that he was behind the scenes just serving to facilitate connections with people who would solve problems and create models for health delivery that was tailored to communities wracked with poverty and at the same time remain faithful to the gospel and the power and the hope that it brings. If you enjoyed this podcast, please like, subscribe, and share it with your friends. My prayer is that God will use the work done by people like Jerry Stromberg and the other leaders of CCHF to provide a place for medical disciples like you to connect and rebuild healthcare into an institution that reflects Jesus and his kingdom. An institution that reinforces hope and personhood to the most invisible and overlooked people in our country. Come to a CCHF event or conference or drop us a note and become part of the solution to the brokenness that is healthcare in America. Thanks for listening. Let's change some things. ~Written by Steve Noblett  _______________________________ CCHFTalk is a production of Christian Community Health Fellowship.

    What Would Jesus Eat (WWJE) | Learning Series With Brittany Wilson

    Learning Series: Brittany Wilson Many practitioners and health professionals face conversations with patients about weight loss and their health. These conversations are both difficult for the practitioner and the patient, and leave the patient feeling discouraged, frustrated, and overwhelmed with how to start improving their health by changing their weight. But what if weight loss is not the approach to better health for your patients? Brittany Wilson, Registered Dietitian and owner of Revelation Nutrition presents the harm in promoting weight loss for patients and how Christ-Centered Intuitive Eating could be the solution to improving your patient's health: mind, body, and spirit.
