Speaker: Dr. Ewan Goligher

Conference Topic: Recovering Our Humanity: How What We Are Shapes How We Are To Live

Christians increasingly experience conflict between traditional Christian moral values and the rapidly evolving moral values expressed in Western culture. Christian ethical commitments are viewed by many in contemporary society as a barrier to human flourishing - to what's truly human and truly good. Social pressures incline untutored Christians to follow the culture's lead on many moral issues. Ethics, therefore, is now a critical priority for discipleship.

During this conference, we will seek to make basic sense of Christian ethics. Examining a range of contemporary moral issues, we will explore what it means to be human and how that shapes how we are to live. Christ, the true human and true image of God, invites and enables us to truly flourish, to become truly human and, therefore, truly good.

His work has been published in leading medical journals including the New England Journal of Medicine, Lancet, JAMA, and subspecialty journals. He has published over 200 papers and several book chapters. He has authored many articles on how Christians should see end of life care, including "When MAID goes to Church" (TGC), "10 Arguments Against Physician-Assisted Suicide" (Logos), "Euthanasia: Why Some Despair Unto Death" (Christianity Today), "Death and Dying: A Catechism for Christians" (TGC). Additionally, he is also the author of the book , published by Lexham Press. He's been interviewed by Aaron Renn and provided lectures on the topic as well, including for the International Christian Medical and Dental Association.

As a specialist in critical care medicine, he cares for patients admitted to the intensive care unit with acute life-threatening illness, and he is regularly involved in helping patients and families navigate difficult decisions about medical care at the end of life.
