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.

Renowned physician–scientist Francis Collins joins Faith in Healthcare host Dr. Mike Chupp and co-host Dr. Brick Lantz for a conversation on truth, science, faith, and trust, the central themes of Collins’ book The Road to Wisdom. This discussion is not an endorsement of every viewpoint, but an invitation to ask hard questions and seek wisdom on issues Christian healthcare professionals regularly wrestle with. Together, the hosts and Collins explore how followers of Christ can think clearly, listen carefully, and help rebuild trust through faithful, Christ-shaped engagement in healthcare and public life, even amid disagreement, polarization, and deep moral conviction.

Respected bioethicist C. Ben Mitchell, PhD, joins host Dr. Mike Chupp and co-host Dr. Brick Lantz for a conversation on bioethics as a lived reality in modern healthcare, shaping how healthcare professionals see patients, practice medicine, and safeguard conscience and trust. Drawing from decades of experience and his book Bioethics in Medicine: A Short Companion, Ben Mitchell explores why medicine is more than a technical service, how language and ethical frameworks shape care, and what it means to practice with conscience in a rapidly changing healthcare landscape.

Faith in Healthcare host, Dr. Mike Chupp, is joined by Dr. Michael Egnor, a neurosurgeon, professor, and residency program director at Stony Brook University, for an incredible conversation on neuroscience, philosophy, and Christian faith. Drawing from decades of clinical experience and his own journey from atheism and materialism to faith in Christ, Dr. Egnor explores whether the human mind can be fully explained by the brain alone. Sharing real-world evidence from brain surgeries, clinical experiments, neurological cases, and patients’ near-death experiences – and insights from his book The Immortal Mind – this episode challenges reductionist views of consciousness and invites listeners to consider what it truly means to care for patients as whole persons, created with body and soul by our Creator.

In this special Christmas episode of Faith in Healthcare, Dr. Mike Chupp reflects on God’s faithfulness as CMDA nears its 100th year, before we listen to a message from former CMDA CEO Dr. Dave Stevens. He shares how a small group of praying medical students grew into CMDA and a global ministry through seasons of obedience, challenge, and God’s unmistakable guidance. More than a history lesson, this episode is a reminder that God delights in using ordinary people to accomplish extraordinary purposes for His Kingdom. As we celebrate the birth of Christ, we’re invited to remember that the same God who has been at work through CMDA for decades is still at work today in healthcare and in each of our lives.
