Host Dr. Mike Chupp and regular co-host Dr. Brick Lantz put together a special Q&A episode that steps away from the usual interview format to engage directly with the real questions CMDA members are asking. Drawing from ongoing advocacy and ethics conversations, as well as dialogue emerging through The Point of Medicine, they walk through practical, on-the-ground scenarios Christian healthcare professionals are facing today, from conscience protections and difficult clinical decisions to mentoring, grief, identity, and when (and how) to pray with patients. This conversation centers on what it looks like to speak truth with compassion while caring well for every person entrusted to us.

In this episode of Faith in Healthcare, host Dr. Mike Chupp and regular co-host Dr. Brick Lantz sit down with Dr. Christina Francis, OB/GYN hospitalist and CEO of the American Association of Pro-Life OB/GYNs (AAPLOG), for a conversation about the shifting realities of women’s healthcare after Dobbs. Together, they examine how abortion drugs are being used across state lines, the growing importance of conscience protections for OB/GYN residents and trainees, and why accurate, medically grounded language is essential for patient trust and care. Dr. Francis also highlights AAPLOG’s work to educate, equip, and support physicians who are committed to life-affirming medicine in an increasingly complex clinical and legal environment.

Dr. Charles Camosy joins Faith in Healthcare host Dr. Mike Chupp and co-host Dr. Brick Lantz for a conversation on faith, bioethics, and moral responsibility. A professor of moral theology and bioethics at The Catholic University of America, Dr. Camosy offers wisdom and clarity to some of the most challenging bioethical questions facing Christian healthcare professionals today. Together, they explore how clinicians can resist polarization, bridge divides, practice moral courage, and uphold human dignity, from the beginning of life to end-of-life care. This episode also examines how language matters, the call to intellectual solidarity, and how a gospel-shaped vision of the human person enables us to engage patients and colleagues with both conviction and compassion.
