Paul Brand
Philip Yancey joins host Karen Wright Marsh to tell the story of his friend, Dr. Paul Brand, the compassionate, innovative healer esteemed the world over.
Bestselling writer Philip Yancey spent years following and working with renowned leprosy surgeon Dr. Paul Brand. A trained engineer and orthopedic surgeon, Dr. Brand innovated surgical techniques for damaged hands and feet. And as a missionary, he put his faith in practice by serving some of the lowliest people on the planet: members of India’s Untouchable caste (now known as Dalits) afflicted with the disease leprosy.
Philip Yancey is an award-winning writer who addresses tough questions and explores central issues of the Christian faith. Philip has a heart for those who suffer. His honest reflections resonate deeply with people who find themselves, as Philip says, living on the borderlands of faith. He feels tremendous gratitude to make his living speaking and writing about the concerns and topics that most interest him.
