God literally created our brains to be wired for joy and delight. It’s not only in Scripture… we see this is true in brain science, too! Today’s behind-the-scenes conversation is practical, fascinating, and truly has the power to change your life. If that sounds like a lofty statement, listen in and don't miss the part about training our new baby neurons to move from the fear center to the JOY center. This part of your brain can be the size of a walnut or grow to be the size of a softball (yes, a softball!)... and who doesn't want a larger amount of joy?!
