The Immortal Mind

Guest: Dr. Michael Egnor, neurosurgeon and Professor of NeurosurgeryMany scientists and doctors believe that there is no such thing as the soul, and we are completely controlled by our brain. Initially a functional atheist, Dr. Michael Egnor fell in love with the brain during college, believing that understanding the brain would help him understand what it meant to be human. In his groundbreaking book, “The Immortal Mind: A Neurosurgeon’s Case for the Existence of a Soul,” Dr. Egnor now maintains science has gotten it all wrong.The human brain is mysterious and powerful, but it’s the soul that makes us who we are. Drawing on important research in neuroscience, Dr. Egnor presents evidence that the brain alone does not explain the mind. He explores, using modern neuroscience and his vast surgical experience, how inside every damaged brain there is a thinking, feeling person with a spiritual soul that transcends the brain. He also uses fascinating case studies showing research on conjoined twins who share parts of their brains, coma patients still able to communicate with loved ones, and near-death experiences which give abundant evidence that the mind survives physical death. If you want to know if there is good evidence for the soul, "The Immortal Mind" is a must-read. Guest biography: Michael R. Egnor, MD is a Professor of Neurosurgery and Pediatrics at State University of New York, Stony Brook. He has served as the Director of Pediatric Neurosurgery and is an award-winning brain surgeon. He was named one of New York’s best doctors by the New York Magazine in 2005. He has practiced neurosurgery for 45 years and has performed more than 7,000 brain operations. His primary research is on brain blood flow and cerebrospinal fluid flow, and he has a strong interest in cognitive neuroscience, philosophy of the mind, and the mind-brain relationship. A former atheist and materialist, Dr. Egnor converted to Catholicism after an encounter with God while praying for his six-month-old son. Dr. Egnor has a strong interest in the work of St. Thomas Aquinas.Resources:"The Immortal Mind: A Neurosurgeon’s Case for the Existence of the Soul" by Michael Egnor and Denyse O’LearyWebsite with interviews and articlesMichael Egnor's conversion story on YouTube

Twin Talk - The Real War on Women: It’s Not What You Think

Join us this week on “Honest to God” as we explore the question: What is the real war on women? Looking beyond cultural slogans and popular narratives, we examine the unique dignity, vocation, and irreplaceable gifts of women through the lens of the Catholic faith. Together, we discuss the challenges women face in today's world, the messages that can undermine authentic femininity, and how Christ offers a vision of womanhood rooted in truth, freedom, and self-giving love. This episode invites listeners into a thoughtful and compassionate conversation about identity, purpose, and what it truly means for women to flourish according to God's design.Follow us on Instagram:@honesttogod_quest Check out our parent network:https://thequestatlanta.com/honesttogodListen On Apple:https://podcasts.apple.com/us/podcast/honest-to-god/id1644393955Listen On Spotify:https://open.spotify.com/show/3rVcw6wX03ezNwowTeE6wf?si=34c6ee021e2347fe

Overcome the Spiritual War

Guest: Fr. Tamiru Atraga, priest of the Archdiocese of Atlanta, Healing Ministry A beloved member of the Atlanta priesthood, Fr. Tamiru Atraga was born in Ethiopia and received his name after his parents were told both he and his mother would die during his gestation. Mary appeared in a dream, encouraging Mr. Atraga to pray, and both survived. The name Tamiru means miracle. As one of 14 children, Tamiru’s upbringing was hard, walking barefoot three miles to high school. His father trusted God and although a simple teacher, he built a chapel in his home where Mary appeared, asking him to start a healing ministry. He became locally famous, never accepting money for the healings God performed through him. Young Tamiru went to high school at a minor seminary in Ethiopia with the Vincentian Fathers, and after more than 10 years studying in Ethiopia, he moved to America, studying six more years at St. John’s Seminary in Brighton, Massachusetts, and then serving the Archdiocese of Boston. It was early in his priesthood when he discovered God had also gifted him with a healing ministry of his own. Fr. Tamiru knows Satan is real and not a “power” or “force”. We ignore him at our own peril! Padre Pio says that only our weakened free will opens the door to Satan. Father Tamiru explains how to close it!

Mary's Garden: A Sacred Place to Bloom - Would Mary Wear a Bikini?

Join us this week on “Honest to God” as we continue our Mary’s Garden: A Sacred Place to Bloom series with a conversation about modesty, dignity, and what it means to reflect authentic femininity in today’s culture. Using the thought-provoking question, “Would Mary Wear a Bikini?” as a starting point, we explore how Catholic women are called not simply to follow trends, but to live with intentionality, self-respect, and a heart rooted in Christ. This episode invites us to move beyond shame or judgment and instead rediscover modesty as something beautiful, freeing, and deeply connected to our identity as daughters of God.Follow us on Instagram:@honesttogod_quest Check out our parent network:https://thequestatlanta.com/honesttogodListen On Apple:https://podcasts.apple.com/us/podcast/honest-to-god/id1644393955Listen On Spotify:https://open.spotify.com/show/3rVcw6wX03ezNwowTeE6wf?si=34c6ee021e2347fe
