Mm-hmm.

It wasn't till I went to Africa in, as a fourth-year medical student that I saw doctors praying, and I thought, "Wow, I guess you have to, if you're gonna pray with patients, you're gonna have to go be a missionary." The reality is since the '80s, along has co- along has co- a, an emphasis that CMDA was a part of back in the '90s.

My predecessor, David Stevens, Walt Laramore, a doctor, family physician from Florida, put out a, a saline solution, um, training program on how to integrate faith into a daily practice of patient care.

So, um, the, the bottom line is I think that some of us, especially Boomers, need to understand that w- we blew it in the '80s, that we didn't demonstrate how to bring our faith, like you s- so really beautiful illustration of hanging who you are on that hook.

Um, or what a Notre Dame professor, uh, Christian Smith, calls a personal identity accessory.

That's what faith has become.

And we as parents, in fact, he wrote a book, Handing Down the Faith.

So as we are wrapping up, um, when you think about your conversation you're gonna have today at aplog, tell, tell us a little bit about it and why it's important for physicians, healthcare professionals of all types to, to hear about your message.
