Church Hymn inspires Doctor to launch Faith-based segment of His Show


Dr. Mehmet Oz, a cardio-thoracic surgeon and owner of "Dr. Oz Show" says church hymns was the inspiration for the new segment of his show  called "Faithful Fridays".


The new segment talks about the effects one's spiritual well-being has on the overall health.

In his conversation with The Christian Post he said he has witnessed first hand the transformation in the lives of his patients who clung to their faith. After listening to church one day, he realised that this could significantly benefit people the world over once the idea spreads.

     "Over the holidays I was actually listening to a church hymn  and you know you have the voice of everyone coming together. I thought, 'My goodness, we can do that metaphorically on television. We have the ability to have unison in voices and have people celebrate life in their faith," he said



Oz then called his good friend, DeVon Franklin, and shared his idea. It took them a couple of weeks to figure out how to incorporate “Faithful Fridays” on the show. This February, they are more than ready. They even have plenty of interesting guests lined up such as Rev. Samuel Rodriguez, New York Times best-selling author and star of “War Room” Priscilla Shirer, and Hillsong Pastor Carl Lentz.

“Growth in your faith, growth in your mind, growth in your body, just things that allow you to grow,” Oz further said of the segment. “I have always interpreted this idea of resting on the seventh day as something that — I have a lot of things to do in life, like a lot of people.”
