Amidst today's cultural landscape, how can Christian healthcare professionals effectively address workplace challenges while being a blessing to those around us? What defines success in the eyes of God?
Join us in this plenary session as John Drew (Director of Staff Experience and Engagement at NHS England) shares personal insights, draws wisdom from Scripture, and integrates these with findings from staff surveys. Together, we will explore how to survive and thrive as God's ambassadors in healthcare. And how we do we do this with kindness and consistency amidst the inevitable tensions we face in healthcare leadership, and in so doing bear fruit that glorifies the Lord.Support the show

'…So take a good look in the mirror and tell me who you see, the one who Jesus died for or the one you'd rather be? Can you find it in your heart to show mercy to the one the Father loved so much that he gave his only son?' – lyrics from ‘The Golden Boy and The Prodigal’ by Jason Gray.
As humans, at times failure is inevitable, but as doctors, the possible consequences of our failure can be fatal.
We look to combine Biblical principles with practical recommendations as we explore what it means to be successful. We also look at different kinds of failure that we encounter, and discuss possible ways to respond.
This is a stand-alone episode of the Junior Doctor Foundations podcast. Your host is Lizzy Kennedy (a junior doctor based in Devon); she is joined by guest Tim Hinks (Associate Professor of Respiratory Medicine) and Felicia Wong (GP and CMF Head of Doctors’ Ministries).

Dr Nancy Pearcey, author of the seminal Love Thy Body, gave us some time in July to talk about her new book The Toxic War on Masculinity. Our culture seems not to know what to do with men. It assumes they are entitled, privileged, and at the top of the pile, but the evidence from social sciences suggests the picture is not so clear cut. Men die younger, have poorer health, physically and mentally, and are more likely to die at their own hands or at the hands of other men, than are women. In a wide-ranging discussion we look at whether there is a crisis in masculinity in Western culture and the Western church, what are its causes, and why the gospel and biblical teaching are good news for men, women, and society.
Dr Pearcey is the author of The Toxic War on Masculinity: How Christianity Reconciles the Sexes, as well as Love Thy Body, The Soul of Science, Saving Leonardo, Finding Truth, and Total Truth. She is professor and scholar in residence at Houston Christian University. She has been quoted in The New Yorker and Newsweek, highlighted as one of the five top women apologists by Christianity Today, and hailed in The Economist as 'America's pre-eminent evangelical Protestant female intellectual.'

In this week's episode, Sally and Ben do something a little different. Sally interviews Ben about his recently released book 'Christ and the Culture Wars: Speaking for Jesus in a World of Identity Politics' (Christian Focus). They explore how Christians should engage with a culture that paints Christians as the antiquated, oppressive villains who need to be overthrown. Is the gospel still good news for our culture?
