  • So enjoyable and necessary today

    Whenever new talks come out, especially by Barfield, I get excited! I love hearing such an intellectual yet profound discourse on faith and medicine’s intersections. Only thing I would maybe call for are more LGBTQ+ physicians and theologians as speakers.

Talking Points

Recent interactions between the hosts and their guests.

"The Uncanny Valley Remaining Human in Healthcare" with Joshua Briscoe, MD
Q: What do you make of AI in healthcare?
Briscoe sees promising uses of AI but warns against relying on it for human interaction, as this may lead clinicians to sacrifice genuine patient care for efficiency. AI should enhance, not replace, the human element in healthcare.
"Flourishing in the Cracks- Cultivating Moral Resilience in the Midst of Moral Distress" with Annie Friedrich, PHD, HEC-C
Q: Might confidence in our own moral judgments paradoxically contribute to moral distress?
Yes, being overly confident can lead to distress; fostering humility and understanding different perspectives can help.
"Flourishing in the Cracks- Cultivating Moral Resilience in the Midst of Moral Distress" with Annie Friedrich, PHD, HEC-C
Q: How can trainees approach moral resilience if they are in a more observer role?
Trainees should realize their own agency and maintain their values and meaning-making beliefs, even without authority.
"Living Out an Intentional Theology of Faithful Presence In Medicine" with Dr. James Rusthoven
Q: How do you deal with the patient research subject dilemma in clinical trials?
It's a constant dilemma confronting conflicting loyalties based on the nature of being both a physician and an investigator.
"Living Out an Intentional Theology of Faithful Presence In Medicine" with Dr. James Rusthoven
