In this thought‑provoking episode, Dr. Jennifer Kang sits down with religious studies scholar Dr. Candy Gunther Brown to explore the spiritual history and hidden foundations of many complementary and alternative medical practices now woven into mainstream healthcare. Together, they trace how cultural dissatisfaction with both institutional medicine and the church opened the door for practices like yoga, Reiki, mindfulness, and therapeutic touch to move from the fringe into hospitals—and even into Christian spaces. With honesty and compassion for those seeking relief from real suffering, they examine the intentional reframing and marketing that often conceals religious underpinnings, raising important questions about informed consent, spiritual neutrality, and the unseen realities influencing care. This conversation doesn’t aim to criticize, but to invite discernment—calling healthcare professionals and believers alike to pursue truly holistic healing rooted in truth, wisdom, and the hope of Christ.
