Dr. Warren Kinghorn: Christian Faith and Mental Healthcare
As we continue to look ahead to Summer Programs, we are introducing you to a new friend of Regent, Dr. Warren Kinghorn, psychiatrist and theologian at Duke University. In this sensitive and insightful conversation, Warren reflects on his many years practising medicine as a Christian psychiatrist. He considers the intersection of psychiatry, theology, and human experience, emphasizing the importance of understanding people as whole persons on a journey rather than machines or clusters of symptoms. He points us to the reality of human interdependence as a gift, and our common humanity as wayfarers, persons on a journey, seeking to discern what we need in the particularities of our lives in community with others. Warren will be joining us at Regent from July 6-10 to teach “Christian Faith and Mental Healthcare.” We hope to see you here!(TW) Warren discusses difficult issues, such as suicidality and euthanasia, as well as other mental health challenges.Warren's BioDr. Warren Kinghorn is Professor of Psychiatry at Duke University School of Medicine, Esther Colliflower Professor of the Practice of Pastoral and Moral Theology, and co-director of the Theology, Medicine, and Culture Initiative at Duke Divinity School, and a staff psychiatrist at the Durham VA Medical Center.
