Your Brain is an Amazing, Constantly Changing Architectural Wonder!
In today's episode, we'll look at how fearfully and wonderfully made you are, learn about the scaffolding (microtubules) and gardeners (microglia) that God gave you to help form the connections between neurons to constantly reshape your brain. Did you know that you can make new connections in your brain within 30 minutes of directed thought, and that within one month of learning to calm your mind, you can increase emotional regulation capacity by over 20%?
Join me for a deep dive into the wonder of microtubules, and learn how to actively shape your brain to become more resilient, healthier, feel better, and be happier.

It's Mind Change Monday!
We're continuing to learn a new way to pray and learn to use our minds to change our brains, and help us seek the abundance and peace Jesus promised us in John 10:10!
Quantum physics gives us two principles of how constantly looking at a situation can keep it stuck in that state, and the same is true in our lives. Learning to shift our viewpoint, relax, and trust God's promises can help us change our minds and begin to move forward.
Today, we take another look the ABIDE practice, take it one level deeper, and learn a self-brain surgery operation that will help us become healthier, feel better, and be happier in any area of our lives. Neuroscience and faith smash together hard in this one!
Remember the ABIDE prayer/meditation practice:
Level I (Hearing):
Approach
Breathe
Invite
Depend
ExperienceLevel II (Self-Brain Surgery Practice):
Assess
Believe
Incision
Deepen

When did Noah build the arc?
Before it started raining.
Look, storms happen in life. Hard times come, but when things get hard, strong people get busy. And when great opportunities come, we need to be ready.
Let’s pick up the hammer and start building that ark. Because the rain is coming. Because something great is coming, and we need to be ready. Something hard is coming, and we need to get our feet on more solid ground, even if we have to build a boat to get there.

We're all taught in school that Charles Darwin's theory of evolution explains how we got here. But the truth is, modern molecular biology continues to struggle to prove even the most basic elements of that idea. Survival of the fittest is an obvious truth, but survival does not explain arrival, and since Watson and Crick gave us the molecular structure of DNA in the 1950's, the picture has become more and more bleak for the Darwinists.My guest today is Dr. Michael Behe. He is a biochemist from Lehigh University, and his incredible book is Darwin's Black Box: The Biochemical Challenge to Evolution.
Naming Darwin's Black Box to the National Review's list of the 100 most important nonfiction works of the 20th century, George Gilder wrote that it "overthrows Darwin at the end of the 20th century in the same way that quantum theory overthrew Newton at the beginning".
From Amazon.com:Discussing the book in the New Yorker in May 2005, H. Allen Orr said of Behe, "He is the most prominent of the small circle of scientists working on intelligent design, and his arguments are by far the best known." From one end of the spectrum to the other, Darwin's Black Box has established itself as the key text in the Intelligent Design movement - the one argument that must be addressed in order to determine whether Darwinian evolution is sufficient to explain life as we know it, or not.
For this edition, Behe has written a major new Afterword tracing the state of the debate in the decade since it began. It is his first major new statement on the subject and will be welcomed by the thousands who wish to continue this intense debate.
