Graduate Healthcare Ministries
We are students and faculty following Jesus together, while participating in God's healing work in the world.
We long for everyone, the people who give and receive care, to flourish and experience God's love.
On campus we focus on:
- INVITATION - Cultivating communities that invite people to follow Jesus
- FORMATION - Encouraging individual and communal rhythms that connect us to God
- INTEGRATION - Equipping students and faculty to integrate their faith with their work in healthcare.
As people serving in healthcare, we:
- Recognize the image of God in every person, treating each with compassion, respect, and dignity
- Lead with humility and dependence on God, always remembering that it is God who brings healing and restoration
- Seek to influence broken healthcare systems so that every person has access to quality care.
God and the Patient Experience Bible Study
These Bible studies connect the patient experience with the Triune God. The same Father God who sustained the Apostle Paul lives today. Jesus sees each person living with physical ailment or disability as an individual, not an annoyance. He sees their true need. The Holy Spirit speaks truth to God’s children when they don’t even know how to pray. God in all his fullness desires to bring hope, healing, and redemption to all.
