About this listen

Brain research has found that our thoughts and beliefs affect our physical, mental and spiritual health. Mind and body are interrelated, and we are designed for healthy relationships of love and trust. When we understand God as good and loving, we flourish. Unfortunately, many of us have distorted images of God and mostly think of him in fearful, punitive ways. This leads us into unhealthy patterns of self-defeating behaviors and toxic relationships. But our lives can change when God renews our minds with a truer picture of him.

Psychiatrist Tim Jennings unveils how our brains and bodies thrive when we have a healthy understanding of who God is. He dispels common misconceptions about God and shows how different God concepts affect the brain differently. Our brains can adapt, change and rewire with redeemed thinking that frees us from unnecessary pain and suffering. Discover how science and Scripture come together to bring healing and transformation to our lives.

One of the best books I have read/listened to all year.

The reader's voice was perfect.
I love the way the author blended true experiences, statistics and information all into one. It helped to get my mind to think carefully on what was being said in a way that held my attention to each detail. 10/10

Excellent. Best book I’ve ever listened to

This book will forever be on my best books of all-time list. I loved how Dr Jennings illustrated the science behind some of the instructions we get in the bible that we sometimes don’t take seriously.
Scriptures like “perfect love casts out all fear”
He illustrates how destructive lies are.
Honestly best book

Must read medical and spiritual perspective of Mental health and faith.

A professional unpacking of mental health from the medical side exposing how misunderstood biblical application can affect the brain function, physically and mentally affecting every part of your life. A book I have been searching for.

Already life changing!

Understanding God's love is a tree of life to our brain and body. His love is revealed through scripture, King Jesus, science and our experience.
