Sam Chan – on medical humour, the power of prayer, and talking about Jesus without being “that guy”

Update: 2021-07-16

Description

Sam is renowned for his energy and passion for evangelism to a sceptical world. A qualified and experienced doctor with a PhD in Theology, he now works with the City Bible Forum, speaking to school and college students, to professionals and academics alike on evangelism, ethics, preaching and story-telling.

He also blogs as the Espresso Theologian, which he describes as a short, quick, buzz of theology - taking you from your world to Jesus in 60 seconds.

In this podcast Sam reminisces about rugby – especially getting concussed – tells how surgeons manage to operate on the correct leg and why the second question, “And how are you REALLY going?” is the key to a real conversation about Jesus.
