When Revival Begins. In this episode, we explore the powerful revival in Judah under King Hezekiah. After years of spiritual decline, Hezekiah reopened and purified the temple, restored proper worship, and called the people to celebrate Passover. His wholehearted devotion sparked a spiritual awakening that transformed the nation. The story reminds us that true revival begins when we hunger and thirst for God, removing anything that hinders our relationship with Him, and letting our personal passion for God influence others.

Your Brain Remembers More When You Write by Hand As a neuropsychologist, I find it fascinating that something as simple as putting pen to paper can have such a profound impact on the brain. Brain imaging studies consistently show that handwriting activates areas responsible for memory, learning, and movement in ways that typing simply does not. And as we age, that distinction becomes increasingly important. A 2026 review in Frontiers in Aging Neuroscience mapped how handwriting engages a beautifully complex network across the brain, regions working together in synchrony to strengthen deeper processing, learning, and memory. In contrast, typing recruits far fewer of these systems. Research from the Norwegian University of Science and Technology also found that students demonstrated stronger brain connectivity when writing words by hand compared to typing them. Why? Because handwriting engages more neural pathways, which strengthens learning and memory retention. Even more encouraging, writing-based practices like journaling and handwriting exercises have been shown to support both cognitive and emotional health, even for those experiencing mild cognitive impairment or dementia. So let’s bring this out of the research lab and into everyday life. Every time you write a prayer, a note, a journal entry, or even a grocery list by hand, you are reinforcing memory pathways, engaging fine motor coordination, and supporting cognitive resilience. Friend, this isn’t nostalgia for the “good old days.” This is neuroscience.

Renewing your mind starts with recognizing the thoughts you’ve been agreeing with. Negative thinking often feels true in the moment, but many of those thoughts are rooted in lies the enemy has repeated long enough for us to believe them. God’s Word gives us something better to hold onto, truth that steadies our thoughts and reshapes what we believe over time. As you read through these, pay attention to the ones that resonate most. Those are often the areas where God wants to bring the most healing and freedom.

What would the first Christians think if they walked into a church today? Chris Tomlin reflects on the powerful connection between believers across generations and how worship unites the church from the earliest Christians to today. “A thousand generations falling down in worship…” 🙌

Can true healing happen if we only treat the symptoms? In this compelling conversation, we explore the relationship between trauma, moral injury, and spiritual healing. While therapy, medication, and clinical care can provide meaningful support, this discussion examines why deep wounds of the soul may require a faith-centered approach rooted in Christ. If you've ever wondered how faith intersects with trauma, PTSD, and lasting restoration, this conversation offers a thought-provoking biblical perspective.

Two groups of friends were throwing the ball back and forth across the canal until it was sinking into the water. At that moment, a gondolier passed by and saved the ball with a backheel, returning it to the boys.

A curious visitor discovers a store unlike any other. No books, no merchandise, no membership card—just one thing. Sometimes the thing we’re looking for isn’t a thing at all.

When Israeli artist Yair Levi first started receiving invitations to sing in churches, there was one major obstacle. In Orthodox Judaism, entering churches is generally prohibited. So Yair did something bold. He asked one of the world’s most respected rabbis for permission. The answer changed everything.
