About the show

What if your symptoms aren't only about what is happening physically? Medicine needs alternative ways of thinking about chronic symptoms — ways that account for how both physical and non-physical factors influence our health. The Christian Clinician explores the often-overlooked connections between physical health, stress, thoughts, emotions, relationships, spiritual struggles, and our relationship with God, and the ways each can influence our health. Hosted by Dr. Tanya Paynter, a licensed naturopathic physician with a master's degree in Christian apologetics from Colorado Christian University, this podcast brings together current research and best practices with functional medicine, biblical truth, and clinical insight to help Christian women better understand what may be contributing to their symptoms. Episodes explore topics such as anxiety, hormones and perimenopause, thyroid health, gut health, sleep, fatigue, stress physiology, emotional health, and nervous system regulation — alongside questions of faith, doubt, suffering, unanswered prayer, fear, control, and healing. Through practical teaching and conversations with physicians, theologians, authors, and other experts, you'll learn to look at health through the interconnected lenses of the body, mind, emotions, relationships, and spirit. Faith isn't just another health intervention, and better spiritual habits won't eliminate disease. But understanding your health more fully while pursuing healing with Christ at the center — that's just good medicine.
