Our guest today, Dr. Thomas Joseph, was born in India into a Christian family. How did Thomas come by his English names? Thomas is an actual descendant of Thomas the Apostle of Jesus, whom he is named after. The family were Syrian Christians at the time but are now practicing Seventh Day- Adventists.
You will be challenged as you hear Thomas’ testimony. Why were his knuckles rapped weekly as a lad? Who inspired him to study medicine? How did God call him to the work he does today? Married to Rene, with two boys Joshua and Jeremy, Thomas shares how their arranged marriage was a gift from God.
Thomas faced many twists and turns whilst studying medicine. He underwent some deep challenges with his health not once, but twice. Listen to how God enabled him and his family through it all. It was the steppingstone into his current role. He is a practicing GP; works in a hospice and is involved in 6-week Community health programs. Rene has completed her doctorate and is a Tutor in the Nursing School in Invercargill.
