Steve Fouch, Head of Communications, The Christian Medical Fellowship
Steve ‘works at the interface of Christianity and healthcare. Writes, edits, speaks, and makes a general nuisance and fool of himself!’
The Christian Medical Fellowship unites and equips Christian doctors and nurses to live and speak for Jesus Christ.
CMF advocates for the marginalised and promotes Christian values in healthcare. They produce papers and blogs on a range of ethical and professional issues to keep members informed. They make regular submissions to government and think tank inquiries into ethical issues in healthcare public policy, speak to the secular and Christian media on health issues, and support members to speak for Jesus in the public square.
Steve will explore ‘Serving Christ in medicine and healthcare: Christianity has had a significant impact on Western medicine and healthcare. However, in a world with rapidly changing values and technologies, how can a Christian remain faithful to God while caring for the sick?’

1 in 3 men say they have no close friends. 40% of young adults say they always or often feel lonely. We are in a loneliness epidemic. And yet this is not how we were created to be. Friendship is one of God’s greatest gifts to us, we are relationally wired, crafted for connection and studies have consistently shown that you can live very unhealthily and yet if you have friends, you will live longer than someone who keeps themselves in shape but is socially isolated. It really is better to eat kebabs with friends than salad on your own.
Phil Knox believes Jesus is the answer, in more ways than one. The secret of eternal life is not what you know, but who you know. Wherever we are at in the state of our friendships, we can all strengthen our relational muscles and play a part in helping others grow their relational connections. Discover what the Bible has to teach us about this vital subject matter and learn from The Best of Friends about how we can be the best of friends. His book on the subject, The Best of Friends, was published in February 2023.
Phil Knox is an evangelist and missiologist at the Evangelical Alliance. He is passionate about making Jesus known and the power of friendship. He loves learning and has degrees in law and mission and evangelism. Phil is married to Dani and they have two sons, Caleb and Jos. He is an avid runner, enthusiastic waterskier and once broke the world record for the longest five-a-side football match. He is also an award winning performance poet and author of Story Bearer and The Best of Friends.
Stay on if you can for prayer, to chat or relax in the Hotel/grounds.
