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.

À propos de l'auteur: Dr. Ted Fenske is Clinical Professor with the Division of Cardiology at the University of Alberta, staff cardiologist at the C.K. Hui Heart Centre, Fellow for Medicine and Public Christianity at the Ezra Institute, and an executive member of the Christian Medical/Dental Association. Ted is a regular contributor to the Canadian Journal of Continuing Medical Education, Perspectives in Cardiology, and several other scholarly journals, as well as contributing to FOCUS magazine, the Christian Medical/Dental Association publication on the intersection of Christian belief and medical practice. He has given numerous talks in public forums on a broad range of topics, including Christian apologetics, countering euthanasia, theodicy, gender confusion, and addressing the gay gospel. Formerly from Vancouver, he is the proud father of three sons and content to call Edmonton home. In his spare time, Ted enjoys playing guitar, skiing, and running marathons.
