Paul LaPennna: Neuroscience and the Soul - EP 122

Christ and Culture

Are we only our brains? Or are we more than the sum of our parts? Dr. Paul LaPenna is an award-winning neurologist in Greenville, SC and Associate Professor of Neurology. More importantly, he’s a Christian. Dr. LaPenna tells us about his conversion, how he as a neuroscientist makes sense of the soul, and how this understanding affects his care. (The conversation starts at 7:25.) PLUS, in “Headlines” (1:00), Faith Steele talks to us about Taylor Swift’s Eras Tour. What’s the significance culturally, and how do we think Christianly about it? And in “On My Bookshelf” (36:35), Faith returns to tell us about a formative book in her Old Testament studies.
