The trauma surgeon who argues with God · The Next Generations

April Kepner (The trauma surgeon who argues with God) is a character in Grey's Anatomy, part of The Next Generations.

Her marriage to Jackson (begun by stealing her from her own wedding) and the loss of their son turn her faith into the show's most serious theological argument: April vs God, conducted in an ambulance bay, with the show declining to referee.
