Next week Christians celebrate the birth of Jesus. Isaiah wrote about Jesus and said, “For to us a child is born, to us a son is given, and the government will be on his shoulders. And he will be called Wonderful Counselor, Mighty God, Everlasting Father, Prince of Peace. But when did Jesus actually become a human? And what does that mean to us today? We’ll discuss that on today’s episode of Ask Dr. Walt.
From 2021-2022, I was honored to host a TV show on LiftableTV, “Ask Dr. Walt.”

Guest: Mike Chupp, MD
TEASE:
This week we’ve celebrated the birth of Jesus. Isaiah wrote about Jesus and said, “For to us a child is born, to us a son is given, and the government will be on his shoulders. And he will be called Wonderful Counselor, Mighty God, Everlasting Father, Prince of Peace. But when did Jesus actually become a human? And what does that mean to us today? We’ll discuss that on today’s episode of Ask Dr. Walt.
OPEN:
Hi, everyone. I’m family physician Dr. Walt Larimore and I’m delighted you are taking the time today during this Christmas season to join me in my home office to discuss the incarnation of Jesus, our Savior, with a medical expert, Mike Chupp, MD. Mike is a board-certified general surgeon who served for nearly 20 years in Africa as a medical missionary and medical director of Tenwek Hospital in Kenya. He now serves as the CEO of the Christian Medical and Dental Associations, called CMDA, a membership organization of over 18,000 Christians serving in healthcare in the US and around the world. Mike and his wife Pam live in Bristol, Tennessee and have four adult children with one grandbaby on the way. Mike, welcome to Ask Dr. Walt.
THANK DR. CHUPP
By the way, I’d love it if you’d be willing to subscribe to one of my daily blogs. You can find them at DrWalt.com, that’s D-R-W-A-L-T dot com.
Finally, during this Christmas season, I pray that you and yours can truly celebrate, revel in, meditate upon, and enjoy not only the most astonishing conception in history, and the most remarkable birth in history, but the most extraordinary man in history, Jesus. History is, in fact, His story. And I pray that in the remainder of this year and in the years that you have left that each of you will come to know Him more deeply and sweetly. So, until our next visit, “Dear friend, I pray that you may enjoy good health and that all may go well with you, even as your soul is getting along well.”
