Imagine you’ve spent your entire career studying the brain, treating it for trauma and disease, and subsequently, helping patients cope with the grief that follows. Dr. Lee Warren, an esteemed neurosurgeon and Iraq War veteran, had literally written the books on PTSD and the brain (No Place to Hide & I’ve Seen the End of You).  But when he tragically lost his nineteen-year-old son, his neurological understanding of trauma recovery was met with his own struggle through the mental, emotional, and spiritual journey of grief.

 

Dr. Warren’s latest book, Hope is the First Dose, walks us through his own unspeakable tragedy and how his profession and his faith came together to land at the one thing none of us can survive or live fully without – hope. Dr. Warren gives us tangible, powerful ways to understand what our bodies do after trauma as well as spiritual revelations of faith that bridge Scripture and science in ways that will, no pun in intended, blow your mind.
