Faith, Science, and the Redemptive Value of Suffering w/ Dr. Robert Redfield | Ep. 146
Catholic Theology Show
How can a Catholic scientist navigate the intersection of faith, medicine, and public health crises? Dr. Michael Dauphinais sits down with Dr. Robert Redfield, former CDC director and Catholic physician, to explore his journey from a scientific worldview to a deep Catholic faith, shaped by a transformative encounter with Pope John Paul II. They discuss Redfield’s work with AIDS patients, the redemptive value of suffering, and lessons from the COVID-19 pandemic, emphasizing the importance of transparency in public health and the role of faith in facing life’s challenges.
