Brain Growth

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.

Immersion in water allows for a soaking that gets into every pore of skin or fiber of being or into the organic matter of what is fully soaked. There is no feeling as beautiful as being completely soaked in God's goodness and finding that His Joy has penetrated every pore of your being.

By relating scripture to real life stories, Donesa demonstrates how we can soak up Jesus' life into every pore of our being and become one with Him.

Christianity has tended to focus on right beliefs and right choices as the keys for personal growth. But biblical evidence and modern brain science show that our character is shaped more by whom we love than what we believe. Through conversations he had with Dallas Willard at the Heart and Soul Conference shortly before Dallas' death, Jim Wilder shows how we can train our brains to relate to God based on joyful, mutual attachment - which leads to emotional and spiritual maturity as our identity and character are formed by our relationship with God.

Why does true Christian transformation seem fleeting? And why does church often feel lonely, Christian community shallow, and leaders untrustworthy? For many Christians, the delight of encountering Christ eventually dwindles - and disappointment sets in. Is lasting joy possible? These are some of the questions Michel Hendricks has considered both in his experience as a spiritual formation pastor and in his lifetime as a Christian.

Unexpected gifts are often great surprises but the unforgettable ones are the ones that keep giving throughout our lifetime. God's word is a treasure trove of blessings and abundance that make up that truth of His unforgettable gift of life.
