Can you really “rewire” your brain? And what does modern neuroscience say about what the Bible has taught for thousands of years?

In this compelling conversation, Dr. Ben Carson sits down with fellow neurosurgeon and author Dr. Lee Warren to explore the powerful connection between faith, trauma, healing, and the human mind.

Together, they discuss how biblical principles like “renewing your mind” (Romans 12) and “taking every thought captive” (2 Corinthians 10) align with groundbreaking discoveries in neuroscience. Dr. Warren explains the concept of “self-brain surgery” — the intentional practice of changing destructive thought patterns to build resilience, find healing, and experience lasting peace.

From overcoming trauma and anxiety to strengthening mental and spiritual health, this conversation offers practical wisdom for anyone seeking hope, healing, and a deeper understanding of how God designed the human brain to flourish.”

When a society rewards outrage, grievance, and canceling others, forgiveness may be the one thing it cannot control.

In this episode of Common Sense with Dr. Ben Carson, Dr. Carson sits down with theologian, author, and speaker Dr. Amy Orr-Ewing to discuss her new book, Forgiveness: Reclaiming the Power in a Culture of Outrage and Fear.

They explore why forgiveness is often mistaken for weakness, how bitterness can quietly damage our hearts and minds, and why Christian forgiveness does not mean ignoring wrongdoing, minimizing pain, or abandoning justice.

Dr. Orr-Ewing also shares powerful real-life stories of radical forgiveness – including forgiveness after terrorism in Northern Ireland – and explains why grace may be one of the strongest answers to a culture trapped in resentment and revenge.

If you are wrestling with anger, family wounds, political division, or the desire to hold onto bitterness, this conversation offers a hopeful, faith-filled path forward.

Topics include:

• Why outrage culture struggles with forgiveness

• How grievance and victimhood become forms of power

• Why Christian forgiveness does not erase justice

• The difference between forgiveness and reconciliation

• How unforgiveness affects the body and mind

• Forgiveness in families, politics, marriage, and public life

• Why grace may be one of the most powerful answers to our divided age

The fight over abortion did not end with Roe v. Wade.

In this episode of Common Sense, Dr. Ben Carson sits down with Dr. Bill Pincus, president of North Carolina Right to Life, to discuss why the battle to protect the unborn has entered a new phase – and why the stakes remain as urgent as ever.

Drawing from medicine, faith, public policy, and personal conviction, Dr. Pincus explains how modern embryology and ultrasound reveal the humanity of life in the womb, why America’s culture has drifted from a deeper respect for life, and how chemical abortion has changed the front lines of the pro-life movement.

Together, they examine why North Carolina has become a major battleground in the abortion debate, what families and churches can do to shape the next generation, and why defending life requires courage, compassion, and persistence.
