Scientists are discovering that if our brains are challenged they can continue to learn and stay sharp, even into old age. “Everything that you can see happen in a young brain can happen in an older brain.” –Brain Scientist, Michael Merzenich. More evidence that it’s not too late for us to continue to grow and learn and stay purposefully, vitally involved in living for Christ.
This blog contains comments and teaching regarding living the Christian faith and comments on the intersection of faith and many other aspects of life from pop culture to science. It also has some stories--hopefully they are amusing stories--from my life. ~Dan
