In this thought-provoking episode of Passion Struck, host John R. Miles is joined by renowned neuroscientist Dr. Andrew Newberg, a pioneer in the field of neurotheology—the science at the intersection of the brain, belief, and spirituality.
Together, they explore a powerful question: What makes us feel like we matter?
Dr. Newberg shares groundbreaking research on how the brain processes spiritual experiences, what happens neurologically when we meditate or pray, and why our deepest beliefs play a vital role in shaping our sense of purpose, connection, and emotional resilience.
