Erika Barber sits down with Erika McCarthy, physician assistant and professor, to explore one of the most pressing questions in healthcare today: Faith vs. Science — can they truly coexist in medicine?

This conversation is for anyone curious about the intersection of faith, ethics, and modern medicine: How does grief shape the way medical providers care for patients? What role does hope play in healing? Should spiritual perspectives influence medical education and clinical practice? And what does it look like for healthcare providers to care for the whole person — mind, body, and spirit?

Together, they share personal stories of loss, moments of hope, and the ways their Christian faith continues to shape their approach to medicine, education, and patient care.
