#258 The supremacy of Christian character in faith and practice 🗓
With Dr James Magara
Christian character is the true mark of a believer - even more so for medical professionals whose work touches lives deeply. It reflects our identity in Christ and sustains integrity in high-pressure environments.
From the beginning, God intended that image and likeness come before dominion; so too, in medicine, competence must be clothed in compassion, humility, and truth. Christian character shapes how we lead, serve, and respond - especially when no one is watching. It is the foundation for trust, resilience, and ethical practice.
As Christian medics, our greatest testimony is more than skill, it is Christlike character in every patient interaction and decision we make.
