    The God Shaped Brain | Dr. Timothy Jennings

    What if the way you think about God is literally changing the structure of your brain? In this episode of You're the Cure, Dr. Ben sits down with psychiatrist, author, and kingdom thinker Dr. Timothy Jennings, MD to explore one of the most profound intersections of neuroscience and biblical truth we have ever covered on this show. Dr. Jennings, author of The God Shaped Brain, breaks down how our thoughts, beliefs, and the lies we believe are not just spiritual issues but structural ones. Every choice we make encodes into the deepest substructures of our neurons, literally changing the resonant frequency our brains operate on. When we believe lies, especially lies about who God is, it shifts us from a spirit of love and trust into a spirit of fear and survival. And that shift has cascading consequences on every area of our health and our lives. In this episode you will learn how sin is better understood as a violation of God's design laws rather than a legal infraction, why the wrong view of God can damage the part of your brain responsible for love and connection, how trauma, addiction, and negative thought patterns encode into the brain at a subcellular level, the role of the amygdala and prefrontal cortex in mental and spiritual health, and what it actually means to renew your mind in light of modern brain science. This one will change how you read Scripture and how you understand yourself. Check out all of Dr. Jennings' resources including a free 13-part seminar coming soon at https://comeandreason.com/

    Healing the Land and Feeding the World | Allen Williams

    What if regenerative agriculture could actually produce more food than conventional farming, not less? In this episode of You're the Cure, Dr. Ben sits down with Allen Williams, sixth generation farmer, former tenured university professor with a PhD in genetics and physiology, and founder of Understanding Ag, the Soil Health Academy, and the brand new Libertas Land. Allen shares his remarkable journey of walking away from a tenured professorship after 15 years to return to farming full time, following a conviction that the research he was doing was nothing more than putting a band aid on a gushing wound. Since then he and his team have worked in all 50 states, 45 plus countries across six continents, and have impacted more than 50 million acres transitioning into regenerative agriculture. The conversation covers some truly eye opening ground. Allen breaks down why the fear that we cannot feed the world without conventional agriculture is simply not true, sharing that regenerative farms are producing 4 to 11 times more food per acre than neighboring conventional farms. He also reveals that the world already produces enough food to feed 12 to 14 billion people and that hunger is a distribution and waste problem, not a production problem. From the spiritual parallels between soil health and human health, to the biblical patriarchs and their massive livestock herds, to the exciting launch of Libertas University in 2027, the first ever fully immersive regenerative agriculture university, this episode is packed with hope, truth, and a kingdom vision for the future of food and farming. Allen and Dr. Ben also discuss the upcoming inaugural conference at Etta Hills Farm on October 8th and 9th in South Haven, Mississippi, an event designed not just for farmers but for everyone who eats and cares about the health of this creation.

    What The Soil Is Telling Us | John Kempf

    What if the same principles that govern human health also govern the health of the soil? In this episode of You're the Cure, Dr. Ben sits down with John Kempf, founder of Advancing EcoAgriculture and host of the number one earth sciences podcast in America, the Regenerative Agriculture Podcast, for one of the most fascinating conversations we have ever had on this show. John grew up on a family vegetable farm in Ohio where three consecutive years of catastrophic crop loss sent him searching for answers. What he found completely changed the way he understood plants, soil, and life itself. He shares how a stark dividing line in a cantaloupe field revealed that plants grown in healthy soil had zero powdery mildew while neighboring plants in pesticide treated soil had 80% infection. Same seeds. Same field. Completely different outcomes. From there the conversation goes deep into plant immune systems, quorum sensing in soil microbiomes, the mycorrhizal wood wide web, and the stunning research showing that plants not only communicate with each other but actually respond to human intentions. John also unpacks a Hebrew translation from the book of Job that connects ancient scripture directly to the science of minerals and microbes in the soil. This episode draws a clear parallel between the prescribing cascade in medicine and the pesticide cascade in agriculture, and offers a hopeful, kingdom centered vision for what it looks like to be true stewards of the land God designed.

    Raising Kids Who Know Who They Are | Legacy Cornerstone Academy | Cassidy Luna and Sarah Byers

    Every system seems to be under scrutiny lately — medical, financial, political. This week, Dr. Ben Edwards turns to one that's often overlooked: education. And this time, it's a good news story. Sarah Byers never planned to open a school. But a thought she couldn't shake — paired with a season of watching her son struggle to connect what he saw with what it meant — turned into Legacy Cornerstone Academy, a new Lubbock school built around a simple question: what if we helped kids become who God created them to be, instead of just moving them through a grade level? Joining Sarah is Cassidy Luna, nurse practitioner at Veritas Medical and founder of Resilient Beginnings, who's spent years studying the difference between the brain and the mind — and why so many kids get labeled ADHD or dyslexic when the real issue is a missed developmental milestone. Cassidy breaks down primitive reflexes, why visualization is the highest form of childhood development, and how movement, not medication, often unlocks a child's ability to learn. Together, Sarah and Cassidy walk through what a day at Legacy looks like, how classical curriculum and developmental therapy work side by side, and why removing comparison and labels changes everything for kids — and their confidence. If you've ever wondered whether there's a better way to raise and educate kids, this conversation will give you real hope — and real answers. Enrollment for Legacy Cornerstone Academy is open now at legacycornerstoneacademy.com. Learn more about Resilient Beginnings at resilientbeginning.com.

    Principles of Self-Governance | Abraham John

    Dr. Ben Edwards welcomes back Abraham John for a deep dive into what he calls the defining question of our time: what does God's original design for government actually look like, and why has every human system, from Eden to now, fallen short? Abraham unpacks why only two governments have ever existed from Genesis to Revelation, why government itself is a spiritual entity, and how the Tree of Life and the Tree of the Knowledge of Good and Evil represent two entirely different operating systems for humanity. He traces the three great rejections of God: Adam's choice, Israel's demand for a king, and the crowd's choice of Barabbas over Jesus, and explains why God doesn't override our choices, even now. This conversation reframes Genesis 1-3 not as a creation story but as God's architectural blueprint for life, family, health, and government. Abraham explains why Jesus never came to reform Rome or any political system, why "repent" (metanoia) means going beyond our current mindset rather than feeling guilty, and why real healing, whether national, cultural, or personal, has to start inside the individual human heart before it can show up anywhere else. If you've felt the world waking up but haven't heard real solutions, this episode points back to the beginning: God's original intent, and why that's where freedom actually lives.

    Called To Reign | Leif Hetland

    This week on You're the Cure, Dr. Ben welcomes back Leif Hetland for a deep dive into his book Called To Reign. Leif unpacks his "three chairs" framework: Chair One (identity in Christ, rooted in love), Chair Two (the orphan spirit, living for approval instead of from it), and Chair Three (the world). He shows how easily believers slide from resting in sonship into striving, fear, and performance without even noticing. They talk about why intimacy with the Father, not information or willpower, is what actually keeps us anchored in Chair One, and how fatigue, unmet expectations, and constant news cycles quietly drain the "emotional tank" that leaves the door open for fear. Leif shares stories from Nigeria, Pakistan, and his own health struggles that show what it looks like to receive identity, intimacy, and inheritance before ever stepping into destiny, and why trying to skip straight to "doing" is exactly backwards. If you've ever felt like you're squeezing out the wrong thing under pressure, this conversation is an invitation to trade striving for rest, and pressure for the Father's pleasure. Get Leif's book, Called To Reign, at globalmissionawareness.com or wherever books are sold.

    The War of Worldviews | Jamie Winship

    What if disease isn't a mutation but a signal your body stopped receiving? Jamie Winship returns to You're the Cure to unpack his new book, The War of Worldviews, and it starts with a declassified CIA document that reframes what your thoughts are actually doing to your cells. Dr. Ben and Jamie trace the two worldviews that have shaped humanity since Genesis: Empire (separation, scarcity, control) and Kingdom (connection, mystery, true identity), and why most of us are unknowingly stuck operating from the wrong one. They get into why knowing who you are matters more than fixing what you do, the six stages of empire collapse and where the U.S. sits on that timeline right now, and how small, connected communities (not politics) are what actually turn a culture around. If Living Fearless changed how you saw yourself, this one goes even deeper. Visit https://www.identityexchange.com/ to learn more about Jamie's work and free resources.

    From Fear to Peace | Janet Newberry

    Janet Newberry joins Dr. Ben Edwards to share what happened when she and her husband Doug went through Veritas Wellness's 90-Day Reset, and how it uncovered something deeper than diet and movement. Janet had known her identity in Christ for years, yet still carried chronic tension, high blood pressure, and fear around her own health. Through the reset, she discovered that true beliefs need the right environment to take root: as she puts it, "knowing you are a beloved child of God while living in a closed system is like knowing you are a salmon while living in a parking lot." Janet traces her story from a fear-based religious upbringing and her mother's struggle with mental illness, through a hospitalization for a perforated appendix, to finally seeing normal blood pressure readings for the first time in her adult life. Along the way, she and Ben unpack the parallel between inflamed cholesterol and inflamed hearts, why "receiving" is the hardest word for most people to practice, and how the same principles that heal bodies can heal families, marriages, and even how we tell our financial stories. It's a conversation about safety, peace, and what it actually takes for truth to flourish. Registration for the next 90-Day Reset is now open.
