I have listened to Dr. Patrick’s talks on medicine, theology, culture, and ethics for 20+ years. He holds brilliant insights into how God has made us in his image, how healthcare submitted to this great vision of Genesis 1 will flourish, and how the transforming work of Christ and his forgiveness reshapes our world.
