Show Notes

This week on CMDA Matters, we’re honored to share the remarkable story of Drs. Andy Oishi and Laurie Tam, a husband-and-wife team serving through healthcare and ministry in Hawaii and the Pacific basin. After boldly publishing an editorial affirming the sanctity of life, Dr. Oishi faced unexpected professional loss, leading them into a season of uncertainty and hardship. Yet through every closed door, God opened greater opportunities for Kingdom impact—far beyond what they had imagined. Their journey is a powerful reminder that bold faith, resilience, and obedience can turn even the hardest seasons into stories of extraordinary purpose and hope.
