Were there long-term consequences for Mary who carried the Son of God in her womb? We can actually say something about this not just theologically, but indeed medically. We are eventually going to talk about that on today’s show, after talking about the stunning connections between a mother and her unborn child, the role of religion and spirituality in health care, and the training of medical professionals today.This is Church Life Today, a production of the McGrath Institute for Church Life at the University of Notre Dame. I’m Leonard DeLorenzo, and my guest today is Dr. Kristin Collier, who is a practicing physician and assistant professor of internal medicine at the University of Michigan. Dr. Collier is also the director of the University of Michigan Medical School’s Program on Health, Spirituality and Religion.Live: www.redeemerradio.comFollow Redeemer Radio on Facebook/Twitter/Instagram:@RedeemerRadioFollow McGrath Institute for Church Life on Facebook/Twitter/Instagram:@McGrathNDSubscribe to the Podcast:iTunes | Google Play | SoundCloud
