Neurosurgeon Dr. Lee Warren, shares insights about the powerful connection between neuroscience and the Christian faith. He explains how our thoughts can physically reshape our brains. By intentionally choosing what we think about—especially gratitude, truth, and hope—we can form new neural pathways that influence our emotions, behaviors, and even future generations. Drawing from personal tragedy, including the loss of his son, Dr. Warren shares how people can better heal from trauma, anxiety, and destructive patterns. The conversation highlights practical ways believers can renew their minds, strengthen relationships, and raise resilient children by aligning their thinking with God’s design for human flourishing.
