Science and Faith Do Not Have to Fight Each OtherJoin me for an amazing conversation with Dr. Michael Guillen, Ph.D. about his important book, Believing is Seeing: A Physicist Explains How Science Shattered His Atheism and Revealed the Necessity of Faith.Dr. Guillen was born in East Los Angeles, where he dreamed of becoming a scientist. The dream took him to UCLA, where he earned a B.S. in physics and mathematics. Then to Cornell, where he earned an M.S. in experimental physics and Ph.D. degrees in physics, mathematics and astronomy. For eight years thereafter, he was an award-winning physics instructor at Harvard University. He’s also received honorary doctorates from the University of Maryland and Pepperdine University.Dr. Guillen is known and loved by millions as the ABC News Science Editor, a post he filled for fourteen years (1988-2002). He appeared regularly on Good Morning America, 20/20, Nightline, and World News Tonight. He also hosted Where Did It Come From?, a weekly, one-hour primetime series for

Life is hard. And it can produce stress and anxiety for all of us sometimes. But synapses that fire together wire together, and it’s possible to teach our brains how to live an anxiety lifestyle, so that we frequently slip into anxiety and stress even when nothing is actually happening. This episode will help us learn to break the cycle of fear and anxiety, cultivate calm, and make a huge difference in our quality of life. Scripture: II Corinthians 1:8-11This episode was inspired by Jon Swanson and Brené Brown.Music by Tommy Walker(Music shared on The Dr. Lee Warren Podcast is authorized under BMI license #61063253 and ASCAP license #400010513 ) This is a public episode.

It’s Self-Brain Surgery Saturday!Today’s operation is the Thought Autopsy. It’s a super-powerful technique you can use to look critically at what your were thinking about during times that were particularly good or bad, successful or not, happy or sad. Thoughts become things, and learning to go back and retrospectively dissecting our own thinking during such times is a superpower for learning how to replicate the good and avoid the bad outcomes next time we encounter a similar circumstance.Scripture: Isaiah 44:14-20, Isaiah 45:20Music by Tommy Walker(Music shared on The Dr. Lee Warren Podcast is authorized under BMI license #61063253 and ASCAP license #400010513 ) This is a public episode.

Are We Managing Our Lives, or Really Changing Them?Our last good decision for September is to commit to real change, instead of just managing things over and over!I see people in my office every week who are hurting, and often times I can offer them a fix for their problem. But some folks just want to manage their pain, take a pill, or do something that's quicker and less scary than having surgery.This episode was inspired by Tommy Walker's song Water Into Wine, which was written out of the story in John 2:1-5 .In the story, Jesus changed water into wine. This wasn't just a little change of the water. He didn't add some powder to it and stir it up. He actually transformed it into the best wine the people had ever tasted.Take a few minutes and look into this question with me: are you tired of just trying to manage the issues and problems you're dealing with in your life, or do you have the courage to actually change them for good? Scriptures mentioned: John 2:1-5 , Isaiah 51:1-2, Isaiah 61:1-3(Music shared on

Storms are going to come in life. How we prepare for them makes all the difference.When my last book came out, I did a podcast interview in which I was asked a strange question: When did Noah build the arc?The answer: Before it started raining.Look, storms happen in life. Hard times come, but when things get hard, strong people get busy. And when great opportunities come, we need to be ready. Let’s pick up the hammer and start building that arc. Because the rain is coming. Because something great is coming, and we need to be ready. Something hard is coming, and we need to get our feet on more solid ground, even if we have to build a boat to get there.Music by Tommy Walker(Music shared on The Dr. Lee Warren Podcast is authorized under BMI license #61063253 and ASCAP license #400010513 ) This is a public episode.

Synapses are where the business of the nervous system happens.Lately, we’ve been talking about the basics of self-brain surgery to learn how to think about our thinking, and the ideas behind my new book, Hope is the First Dose.But this isn’t just some “self-help” or motivational speaker-type thing. Because the vast majority of your life, the decisions you make, the relationships you have, the things you accomplish or strive for come out of how you think: your attitudes, your thought patterns. Everything about how you handle stress, unexpected challenges, and the hard parts of life is determined by your thinking.But the problem is, most of us spend our lives reacting to our thinking, because we never think about our thinking.And the reality is, our baseline thoughts are not very reliable most of the time. Why? That answer is rooted in the science of how our nervous systems are wired. The bad news is that your nervous system has a set of responses to challenges, threats, and stresses, and that set of responses

Do you find yourself wondering where God is?Wondering why God seems to be taking forever to answer your prayers? Wondering why everything seems so hard all the time? Are you so tired of being so tired? If so, a good decision you can make is to learn to grow while you’re waiting!Here’s a short lesson about the latin phrase mutatis mutandis, which means “after the necessary changes have been made.”Scriptures: Psalm 13Habakkuk 1Isaiah 42:8-9Joshua 3Micah 7:7Music by Tommy Walker(Music shared on The Dr. Lee Warren Podcast is authorized under BMI license #61063253 and ASCAP license #400010513 ) This is a public episode.

Self-Brain Surgery Tip #7:(It's Tata's birthday! Email him if you'd like to say hello! [email protected] )When you make a mistake, admit it to yourself and correct it going forward. Excuses build the false idea in your brain that it’s not really your fault, and you’ll be more likely to do it again. Own it, recalibrate, move forward and you’ll be happier!It's No-Slip November friend! In the Bible, we read of how the Israelites turned an 11-day trip into a 40-year-long journey through the desert. And many of us are tired of covering the same ground over and over in our lives instead of finally breaking through to where God wants us to go. So it's time to use that self-brain surgery tip, stop making excuses, and get after it! Are you with us?Scriptures Mentioned:Hebrews 12:1Deuteronomy 1:1-8Music from Building 429(Music shared on The Dr. Lee Warren Podcast is authorized under BMI license #61063253 and ASCAP license #400010513 ) This is a public episode.

When You Can't Hear Truth in Your Own Brain, You Need Better Words(REPLAY of Season 5, Episode 89 for Wild Card Wednesday)“Take to heart all the words by which I am warning you today, that you may command them to your children, that they may be careful to do all the words of this law. For it is no empty word for you, but your very life, and by this word you shall live long in the land that you are going over the Jordan to possess.” (Deuteronomy 32:46–47)In this episode, we’re going to look at how God’s words- all of them- have the ability to give meaning and purpose to our lives. How we have need of them for all the things we’ll face in our lives. How we can rely on them when the massive thing happens.And how sometimes God says, “You can’t have that.” So what do we do when it feels empty and void? We need some words in there, and God always has them. But we have to start today. Scripture: Isaiah 55:11Music by Tommy WalkerSign up for my Substack letter here.(Music shared on The Dr. Lee Warren Podcast is author
