When you think of concepts and practices that help pastors and ministry leaders find hope and thrive, perhaps neuroscience isn’t among the immediate thoughts that comes to mind! Yet in the “uniquely and wonderfully made” way in which God has fashioned us, we are discovering the crucial connections between how Biblical truths about our lives and the physiological insights God is revealing about how our brains function are deeply and importantly related. In this fascinating episode of Hope Renewed, we talk with pastor and academic Dr. Charles Stone about his research and discoveries regarding the intersection of Biblical truth with brain insight (which he calls NeuroMinistry), and how pastors and ministry leaders can – by better knowing themselves – avoid common ministry pitfalls and grow in hope-giving, life-bringing practices.
