Webinar #198 Rev Dr Stephen Ko – Healing and embodied faith

Recorded on 16 May 2024 for ICMDA Webinars.

Dr Peter Saunders chairs a webinar with Rev Dr Stephen Ko

In 1 Corinthians 6:19 we are reminded that our 'bodies are temples of the Holy Spirit'. Christ incarnate is deity in flesh, and His spirit is incarnate in us. Living and worshiping incarnationally is consciously embracing what the Creator has designed in His image, from the finest, microscopic details to vital organs within our body, enabling the Holy Spirit to work in us.

Weaving together insights from faith, science, and medicine, this webinar will reveal the marvellous ways in which our physical and spiritual health can prepare us to become instruments of God's healing in the world.

Reverend Stephen Ko, MD, MA, MPH, MDiv, serves as Senior Pastor of New York Chinese Alliance Church in NYC. Dr. Ko’s healthcare specialties include pediatrics, preventive medicine and public health.  He is currently Adjunct Professor at Alliance Theological Seminary.

Previously, he served as a Global Health Professor at Boston University and a Medical Officer for the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention. He has worked extensively in Africa and Southeast Asia on diseases of epidemic potential, helping low and low-middle income countries implement their national public health programs. Writing at the intersection of faith, medicine, and public health is a particular passion.
