About Our Guest(s)
Melissa McConville, MD, is a Canadian family physician and Integrative Medicine Specialist with over 20 years of experience in clinical practice. She is an author, speaker, and founder of CALLING KINGDOM, where she now coaches and equips Christian medical and dental students, residents, and physicians across Canada and the United States to integrate their faith more deeply into their lives, training, and professional practice with wisdom, integrity, and confidence.
Dr. McConville is the author of “The Physician’s Rx for Faith, Life, & Healing: A Doctor’s True Story from Broken to Whole”, a raw and vulnerable memoir sharing her journey through the hidden struggles of medicine—including trauma, loss, burnout, moral injury, and illness. Through her story, she reveals the depth, breadth, and miraculous healing power of Jesus, the Great Physician, who wants to bring the same healing and wholeness to physicians, patients, and healthcare communities—not only in this life, but into eternity.

On this episode:
In this conversation, Melissa takes us to a road race where she knelt beside a man in asystole after twenty-five minutes of CPR — PEA to asystole, epi given, no pulse — and made the deliberate shift from clinical to spiritual, praying over him while quietly unsure whether she fully believed God still raises the dead. She acted anyway.
