In this special episode, Dr. Barbara sits down with Dr. Harold G. Koenig, world-renowned researcher and Duke University professor of Psychiatry & Behavioral Sciences. Together, they explore how Christian faith shapes mental health, lowers stress hormones, strengthens the brain, heals attachment wounds, and offers freedom from moral injury.
This episode is part of our From Codependence to Christ-Dependence series, and today we go deeper into why our brains are literally made for God, and why only His love can fill the God-shaped hole inside us.
