Synopsis

Cardiologist Dr. Ted Fenske is no armchair director when it comes to living out his Christian obedience at work. In Keeping Faith in Medicine, Ted invites us to walk alongside him through the years of medical school, residency, and early practice, when he was fiercely focused on professional performance. His own deeply personal story of a temporary loss of this all-consuming professional identity through sudden illness leads to his story of recovering his identity in Christ above all others, and how this has prepared him to take on the priestly role of the doctor in the service of the Great Physician.
