Neuroscience, Neurotheology, the Soul, and Human Flourishing and identifies and corrects the wrong assumptions of neurotheologians.

Why is understanding marriage and the nature of men and women so crucial? As Dr. Colin Smothers and Dr. Jeff discuss, the Bible begins with a marriage between Adam and Eve, the gospel is explained as a marriage, and history ends with a marriage between the Lamb and the Church, the Bride. If we lack an understanding of marriage, sexuality, and human nature, we will inevitably have trouble understanding the good news of Jesus and the biblical narrative. Check out Dr. Smothers’ book, Male and Female He Created Them: A Study on Gender, Sexuality, & Marriage.
