This database contains nearly 1,000 neuroscience-related references and resources found across ATS. It can be searched by the ATS program, educator, type of action, and themes. There is diversity across ATS about what neuroscience may be useful or best avoided. There is also disagreement about how the terms under each theme are best defined. This database may help you better understand the actions and attitudes of theological educators. If an ATS program is not listed, it is because no resources or references were found there in this research study.

| Asbury Theological Seminary | Dr. Bill Arnold | Theological Anthropology | Book Endorsement | Endorsed Joel Green's Body, Soul, and Human Life stating: "Joel Green serves as the vanguard of interdisciplinary research on this topic. No one combines the requisite background in theology, biblical studies, and the natural sciences as adeptly as Green, and with the critical thinking needed to move along the interstices of these disciplines. Indeed, he succeeds at closing the gaps between these disciplines. In this volume, we see him examining the biblical data afresh from his monist perspective, surveying the convergence of biblical studies and the neurosciences on a number of conclusions, and exploring the implications of monism for the church and for our understanding of salvation, mission, and life after death. This 'progress report' is another timely and welcome contribution from Professor Green." | https://www.amazon.com/Body-Human-Studies-Theological-Interpretation-ebook/dp/B007CKAI62/ref=sr_1_1?crid=2FZI5MN96JLWK&dib=eyJ2IjoiMSJ9.WsFNBCyGbu7Ix-aCcjoEw7WPQYLsnb0flqM3rr2RIR1F9Zp1HuIekWdqu3lA6-K1ohUFg5dKbBiqQ2UDvijam2FxAi3OLvxcKOeEMCBPk6DX6mAIgTilg2T-WgZYy8W-7242v5WsYws7hICzSpTyhfG45FU74A7HCrOu4W7Y1g1xd44OaNyULrEKGHLKY-sTlzBfgNd-scb5pkAAgdnm4dF0nLSGndjLW2kxIFZvv0c.LA0gUlzOMPRQ4VrB5p-xLfnIOGDoTdPl57fHjL0RMaI&dib_tag=se&keywords=joel+green+body%2C+soul+and+human+life&qid=1742322659&s=digital-text&sprefix=joel+green+body%2C+soul+and+human+lif%2Cdigital-text%2C158&sr=1-1 | |

| Asbury Theological Seminary | Dr. Clinton Ussher | Pedagogy | Leadership | Dissertation/Thesis | In this dissertation, Intuitive Wisdom in Leadership: Exploring the Exercise of Intuitive Wisdom among Ministry Leaders in New Zealand, it advocates: "Leaders frequently exercise intuition to great advantage. For this reason, leaders highly value intuition. However, Christian leadership literature does not understand or give a clear definition of intuition. The purpose of this research is to ascertain how intuitive wisdom informed the leadership of nineteen pre-qualified church and ministry leaders from New Zealand, and to propose a framework for developing intuitive wisdom capabilities among emerging ministry leaders. Biblical wisdom provides a biblical and theological framework for understanding intuition; hence the terminology, “intuitive wisdom.” The study takes an interdisciplinary approach considering research from biblical studies, theology, psychology, philosophy, neuroscience, business and management, and leadership." | Ussher, Clinton J.

Their vision of the grand narrative of the Bible, personal vulnerability, and invitations to application and reflection present the reader with multiple avenues for receiving their important message. God's invitation to intimacy and deep desire to dwell with humankind is presented with accessible breadth and depth. They cover the major epochs of God's reconciling mission and present the Cross as the ultimate expression of God's pursuing love for the lost.

| Boston University School of Theology | Dr. Wesley Wildman | Formation and Practice | Article | In this article's abstract it advocates: "the neurological study of religious behavior, belief, and experience faces many challenges related to research conception, experimental design, and interpretation of results. Some of these prob- lems are common to other types of neurological study of behavioral and cognitive phenomena. Others are distinctive to the specifically religious domain ofbehavior, belief, and experience. This paper discusses eight of these problems and three key strategic principles for mitigating them. It then proposes an eight-step framework for research into the neurology of religious behavior, belief, and experience that implements the three strategic principles and addresses all eight ofthe problems. | Wesley Wildman and Patrick McNamara, "Challenges Facing the Neurological Study o f Religious Behavior, Belief, and Experience," Method and Theory in the Study of Religion 20 (2008); 212-242. | |

This book brings together many of the most seasoned and thoughtful integrators of psychoanalytic clinical practice and Christian theology. It is rare to find resources such as this, which are theoretically sophisticated, theologically nuanced and therapeutically relevant. The rich motif of 'Christian traditioning' represents an important contribution to relational approaches to integration, which moves us beyond the safe shores of general ideas and invites us to own our particular and formative commitments." | https://www.amazon.com/Christianity-Psychoanalysis-Conversation-Association-Psychological/dp/0830828567/ref=sr_1_1?crid=4UBBNDJSWT4&dib=eyJ2IjoiMSJ9.IFgSnUnAeL0PtHiH9W7dKylLq0NPqsFS23HnkIHik_w.-VfblwXofOFs6CIursCaVBXI6yMbmzmHY8XOzhJqd_4&dib_tag=se&keywords=Christianity+and+Psychoanalysis+%3A+A+New+Conversation&qid=1743689617&sprefix=christianity+and+psychoanalysis+a+new+conversation%2Caps%2C148&sr=8-1 |

| Boston University School of Theology | Dr. Patrick McNamara | Formation and Practice | Article | From its abstract, this article advocates: "the neurological study of religious behavior, belief, and experience faces many challenges related to research conception, experimental design, and interpretation of results. Some of these problems are common to other types of neurological study of behavioral and cognitive phenomena. Others are distinctive to the specifically religious domain of behavior, belief, and experience. This paper discusses eight of these problems and three key strategic principles for mitigating them. It then proposes an eight-step framework for research into the neurology of religious behavior, belief, and experience that implements the three strategic principles and addresses all eight ofthe problems. | Wesley Wildman and Patrick McNamara, "Challenges Facing the Neurological Study o f Religious Behavior, Belief, and Experience," Method and Theory in the Study of Religion 20 (2008); 212-242. | |

Beginning with an astute analysis of our modern tendency to reduce, flatten, and de-complexify the beautiful, swirling kaleidoscope of divine and created reality, Begbie articulates a creative, constructive pneumatology that deepens our understanding of the resonance between theology and the arts.

The moral responsibility of war-making is too often scapegoated to military service members, passing over the bystander civilian society whose votes and tax dollars funded the enterprise. When Morris empowers the voice of military veterans, he does so as a necessary demand for a full and relenting hearing of the truth: the moral burden must be shared by all." | https://www.amazon.com/Moral-Injury-among-Returning-Veterans/dp/1793642648/ref=sr_1_1?crid=2SEMDEYXF6IQ2&dib=eyJ2IjoiMSJ9.DmLLh_0XwmytMOfiGigHkZocn2yNlsREtERYRzPIahxro32OmSW1U14f0R0ChwEZl9PGIX5YqXD94Hy5KtyPhg.hCs2QJi0WjZhCkK-SfZMN2zCgiQtU2nz7YcrrgCJIAY&dib_tag=se&keywords=joshua+morris+moral+injury&qid=1744127795&sprefix=joshua+morris+moral+injury%2Caps%2C172&sr=8-1 |

| Claremont School of Theology | Dr. Duane Bidwell | Health and Suffering | Moral Injury | Book Endorsement | Endorsed Morris' Moral Injury among Returning Veterans: From Thank You for Your Service to a Liberative Solidarity: "When soldiers return from war, civilian attitudes can amplify and complicate moral injury. In this much-needed text, Morris engages veteran’s stories of belonging, isolation, and betrayal to show how moral injury can provide wisdom and authority to help reintegrate returning soldiers. Using the film American Sniper to illustrate ideologies about war that harm veterans, Morris invites military chaplains and civilian caregivers to lead the ideological critique that can create the conditions veterans need to recover from moral injury. His liturgy of solidarity shows how to create the counter-hegemonic communities that help veterans come home and thrive." | https://www.amazon.com/Moral-Injury-among-Returning-Veterans/dp/1793642648/ref=sr_1_1?crid=2SEMDEYXF6IQ2&dib=eyJ2IjoiMSJ9.DmLLh_0XwmytMOfiGigHkZocn2yNlsREtERYRzPIahxro32OmSW1U14f0R0ChwEZl9PGIX5YqXD94Hy5KtyPhg.hCs2QJi0WjZhCkK-SfZMN2zCgiQtU2nz7YcrrgCJIAY&dib_tag=se&keywords=joshua+morris+moral+injury&qid=1744127795&sprefix=joshua+morris+moral+injury%2Caps%2C172&sr=8-1 |

| Covenant Theological Seminary | Dr. Richard Winter | Theological Anthropology | Shame | Book Endorsement | He endorsed Curt Thompson's The Soul of Shame: "Who would want to embark on an expedition into the unknown and painful regions of our own soul where evil has caused disharmony and disintegration in body, brain and heart? But this is what Curt Thompson invites us to do. Like a skillful surgeon encouraging us through a difficult but necessary procedure, he works to set us free from our old stories in which shame holds us captive to the common, core fear of having our inadequacies exposed. Naming that fear is the road to healing and hope, not only in our own soul but also in our marriages, families, communities, churches and places of work. This is a challenging but profoundly life-giving book that teaches us―using many fascinating stories from Thompson's work as a psychiatrist―how to relate our inner world of thoughts, emotions and body sensations to the intriguing findings of contemporary brain science, and above all to the biblical story of God's longing that we live openly in the light of his love, delight and grace.

| Duke University Divinity School | Dr. Warren Kinghorn | Health and Suffering | Shame | Book Endorsement | Endorsed Curt Thompson's The Soul of Shame: "With the discerning eye of a wise therapist, Curt Thompson shows that shame is not just a consequence of human sin but also a toxic 'emotional weapon' that stands at the root of sin, distancing us from God, from others and from our own place in God's beautiful and good creation. But Thompson reminds us that in Christ, God wants to heal our shame. Shame tells us that we are unworthy and unloved and that we should retreat and protect ourselves. But the gospel frees us to be vulnerable and therefore to be rescued from shame, because we are known and loved by the one who assumed our shame that we might enter into his joy. If you experience shame―which is to say, if you are a human being―then this book bears good news for you." | https://www.amazon.com/Soul-Shame-Retelling-Stories-Ourselves-ebook/dp/B015TBK2RK/ref=sr_1_1?crid=379T94ZSCYF3J&dib=eyJ2IjoiMSJ9.Nyrdy4gX8clTQipUGtaTF4Oc84E1BuQ5sXt0sHv8Krma1j_chHuc8Eb45a7RbTUYEaEZ62sbGDqBPli9h794atWrzK_bqDPqX80RKWRqZ7K8g1CrtTCqHYwEwYVmx2sKUV0OhHW8yVhqyALVBDkhA1yfXnzjNIINh4FMY3dhxCO7wKTYi8sdTnlDM8xZ6o6H8_VLLFRaw8H0RweKwHg1CVvWm4aUmrqIhgy7U_i3cbU.w9Q7kcsy5_dJegYDDMb2gX0hYVZ6dINxkrEIhMrMCv4&dib_tag=se&keywords=the+soul+of+shame&qid=1743441289&sprefix=the+soul+of+sham%2Caps%2C195&sr=8-1 |

| Fuller Theological Seminary | Dr. Joel Green | Formation and Practice | Book Endorsement | Endorsed Markham's Rewired: Exploring Religious Conversion: "The importance of this new book by Paul Markham lies both in his constructive proposal concerning the nature of Christian conversion and in the process by which he achieves his proposal. Working at the interface of neurophilosophy and Wesleyan theology, he presses for a more fully integrated theological method at the same time that he demonstrates its fruitfulness. The resulting portrait of a fully embodied and ecclesially centered Christian conversion is a welcome contribution to our understanding of spiritual life." | https://www.amazon.com/Rewired-Exploring-Conversion-Distinguished-Dissertations-ebook/dp/B00VGZASM8/ref=sr_1_1?crid=2ZJZ51OK9QTLY&dib=eyJ2IjoiMSJ9.gGoN9TFlDXooKmDP9do1dA.Ug7zWlcgvDzfAS5PrdLI1uTZvBgEgDgwbxy7NzYV4_4&dib_tag=se&keywords=paul+markham+rewired&qid=1744222698&sprefix=paul+markham+rewire%2Caps%2C157&sr=8-1 | |

| Fuller Theological Seminary | Dr. David Augsberger | Health and Suffering | Trauma | Book Endorsement | Endorsed the book All Our Griefs to Bear: Responding with Resilience after Collective Trauma: “This book is a significant contribution to pastoral literature. Psychologically informed by trauma theory, biblically set in lament and reverence for pain, humanly expressed in grieving by way of narrative and story, and with a grasp of the warmth and power of blessing, this book will tug pastoral ministry and congregational life in a direction toward healing. In a time when ‘I am blessed’ has been reduced to ‘How lucky and privileged I am,’ Joni Sancken pierces our dark cells of denied or distorted suffering to let in the light of grace and truth.” | https://www.amazon.com/All-Our-Griefs-Bear-Responding-ebook/dp/B09BHS5M82/ref=tmm_kin_swatch_0?_encoding=UTF8&qid=1689784398&sr=8-1 |

| Moody Theological Seminary | Dr. Deborah Gorton | Health and Suffering | Mindfulness | Book Endorsement | Endorsed A Counselor's Guide to Christian Mindfulness: Engaging the Mind, Body, and Soul in Biblical Practices and Therapies: “The ability to stay present in our everyday lives is quickly becoming a lost discipline. Too often we default to functioning on autopilot, failing to pay attention to, or worse, be intentional about, what influences our daily decisions. Mindfulness practices have traditionally served to draw our attention to the here and now, recognizing how our bodies, emotions, relationships, and environments all play a significant role in how we react to and engage in the world around us. This book incorporates the powerful discipline of mindfulness from the critical and foundational perspective of biblical truth and practice. A must for any counselor who sees the importance of incorporating spiritual disciplines into mental health care, A Counselor’s Guide to Christian Mindfulness provides invaluable tools for promoting wholistic transformation through the therapeutic process.” | https://www.amazon.com/Counselors-Guide-Christian-Mindfulness-Practices-ebook/dp/B08ZMCKVMV/ref=sr_1_1?crid=NWTO9TGTF6T5&dib=eyJ2IjoiMSJ9.XnpOpSmaod97lZzgtBBtjhCmcre8wfKivl6ER3b50KDKY-hMcZup5kKgrk0B5M1b__RCTOxmnNyiiAVBBxSsdgty7rGwEVsefmzhOJH5X0F7f9AxP7OKEXPkMJMnabdaGAvCkInm8Vl_yqEjgaJtmZ5Xfz_F77mhe29NxoT5OA_h2Ag8BJRNy9c-5h0wu6rh-NgS0_ANrlbunOSMNlExEyJ7dgrU-DiQ_iiP0VeNU70.eG-sh4QVTTs5nrGL2PYpoqvG8__RROLt2FCSYMZJhFw&dib_tag=se&keywords=a+counselors+guide+to+christian+mindfulness&qid=1744564902&sprefix=a+counselor%27s+guide+to+christian%2Caps%2C181&sr=8-1 |

She carries us along as she makes her own story a bridge between the narratives of Scripture and the insights of science. She is a gifted writer, a first-rate storyteller, and a careful researcher. I'll never see my brain the same way again! If all truth is God's truth, then St. David is helping the rest of us pull diverse pieces of that truth together in unexpected ways. Readers who enter from the world of psychology will be invited to contemplate the mystery that exceeds observation. Readers who enter from the world of spirituality will be invited to engage the science that can explain us to ourselves and make us more compassionate toward others.

| Starr King School for the Ministry | Prof. Ayize Jama-Everett | Health and Suffering | Psychodelics | Lecture | This lecture reflects: "As the psychedelic revolution begins in earnest throughout the country, more and more seminarians, religious leaders, and people of faith are presented with questions about the role of sacred substances when it comes to religion. Educational institutions from Harvard Divinity to the Naropa Institute are beginning to create theologically oriented psychedelic study programs. As the ever-growing “spiritual but not religious” demographic begins to encounter direct experiences with the divine, the role of the preacher, priest, and spiritual advisor becomes more nuanced. And as issues of cultural appropriation, ethical boundaries, and spiritual bypassing become more evident, the need for open and respectful dialogue becomes even more critical." | https://www.sksm.edu/academics/the-center-for-multi-religious-studies/psychedelics-and-the-seminary-lecture-series-2023/ |
| Starr King School for the Ministry | Dr. Gabriella Lettini | Health and Suffering | Moral Injury | Book Endorsement | Endorsed Morris' book Moral Injury among Returning Veterans: From Thank You for Your Service to a Liberative Solidarity: "Morris’s book offers an important and unique contribution to the new wave of moral injury scholarship developed in the last decade. Its approach is refreshing as it engages the moral injury of war holistically, bypassing the tendency of many scholars to see it mainly as a clinical or pastoral issue, and as such a problem of the individual. This book strives to engage moral injury though an interdisciplinary approach the honors the complexity of the issue and sees it as a collective problem that needs collective healing and liberation. One of the unique contributions of the author is to consider the figure of the military chaplain as a Gramscian organic intellectual. Morris sees the chaplain as a Gramscian organic intellectual accompanying individual solders in their healing processes while also engaging in the larger project of justice making and liberation that can truly heal the scars of war. I highly recommend this book that offers a much needed path to collective healing that is also truly liberating." | https://www.amazon.com/Moral-Injury-among-Returning-Veterans/dp/1793642648/ref=sr_1_1?crid=2SEMDEYXF6IQ2&dib=eyJ2IjoiMSJ9.DmLLh_0XwmytMOfiGigHkZocn2yNlsREtERYRzPIahxro32OmSW1U14f0R0ChwEZl9PGIX5YqXD94Hy5KtyPhg.hCs2QJi0WjZhCkK-SfZMN2zCgiQtU2nz7YcrrgCJIAY&dib_tag=se&keywords=joshua+morris+moral+injury&qid=1744127795&sprefix=joshua+morris+moral+injury%2Caps%2C172&sr=8-1 |

| The Seattle School of Theology and Psychology | Dr. Derek McNeil | Theological Anthropology | Book Endorsement | He endorsed Curt Thompson's The Soul of Desire: Discovering the Neuroscience of Longing, Beauty, and Community: "Curt Thompson's The Soul of Desire is a book full of beauty and delight that reveals the secrets of healing and tending to wounded souls. This is a remarkable book that weaves biblical narrative together with neurobiological insight and the arts to help us pursue answers to the profound questions of desire. With a disarming wit and sobering honesty, Thompson grapples with weighty truths, all the while grounding his integration in the redemptive work of a risen Savior. The author skillfully and tenderly walks the reader through stories―biblical, clinical, and poetic―that reawaken our sense of grief, revealing the imprints of trauma that have distorted and corrupted desire. He invites us to learn what is at play in our bodies, spirits, and relationships through the context of what he calls 'confessional communities.' A confessional community 'creates a space in which we gather to name our desires, lament our griefs and traumas―all acts of prayer―and out of them become outposts of beauty and new creation in the other domains of our lives.' Thompson is hoping not simply to awaken our minds but also our creative spirits as we hunger for the dawning of a new creation. At the heart of this book he desires that we come to know the G-d who deeply knows us: the one who would soothe us and redeem the stories we've been living and co-creating. This book will inspire you to risk desire, that your life can become a thing of beauty and goodness, even from what is a story of grief and despair." | https://www.amazon.com/Soul-Desire-Discovering-Neuroscience-Community-ebook/dp/B08YDL938M/ref=sr_1_1?crid=2QI5MZ4WS1B4G&dib=eyJ2IjoiMSJ9.AnNOKlkYnPrJcshOMKvs5EFHEfvp3nu8hPGnmItUn62klH-2zqDJU9W_bMEeAvQCOZVnjvdkpqpQbEVCbvt2D5HCzJKUfuV8HxVyraA7frie91MXiQRXq5dQhiTp2Ope8fsGMIw8EsftuM0fOvBT8opcP-glH42TGO1pYMvsmttzLyi2YMeF4Fsr_e-N9_MIyvZsB5GeRIvNyyweGVVaP1zhJtZk5-CDa0MluED6FX8.PTn5Ydne3QB3abEAQva4VDqed6NGlLw0ZEw4lD43R4g&dib_tag=se&keywords=thompson+the+soul+of+desire&qid=1743176468&sprefix=thompson+the+soul+of+des%2Caps%2C540&sr=8-1 | |

Around the world, some question the value of education; others demand tangible results from educators and their institutions. With this current reality facing education, it is propitious for teachers to consider the nature and purpose of teaching and learning. Should teaching limit its focus to the transfer of information, insights, and knowledge to students, or should it seek to achieve transformed habits of thinking and doing in leaners? The Learning Cycle by Muriel Elmer and Duane Elmer is a substantive resource for educators wrestling with this question. It is required reading for anyone longing for teaching and learning to produce more than recall of information or mastery of insights." | https://www.amazon.com/Learning-Cycle-Insights-Faithful-Neuroscience-ebook/dp/B07ZG74J1C/ref=sr_1_1?crid=1ML8PXYV4AN2&dib=eyJ2IjoiMSJ9.CEqa0eM3xRmwPZ9kMXa2JyvlIPhiqrGGfVH6P9DoZrWBwiGEKZyzVwGBXsvu_2lmRfIa2EEE8qL-1tOx_7RiF8KEqbzq4g1I-urpKH_ek5SCB8w1UeOmPa4Lcv6ZO3gmjZWRtiC5DZeEA9_s_4QbOtIW9AbDBNYuza-Wb0vOVAsxvNpwjOKNZLVRdPy7eqagYUJhlWUSu0ItXYaFUpWugOGVaKCJBjl7RDTSPsUm-io.YipV9lGH_SMJbJj2dYsxZJ7edqPds7R_TGioLNRes-8&dib_tag=se&keywords=the+learning+cycle&qid=1743953035&sprefix=the+learning+cy%2Caps%2C321&sr=8-1 | |

Hogue shows us how our growing understanding of how the human brain works may help us to worship more truthfully, preach more stirringly, counsel more wisely, and pray more deeply. This is an imaginative and accessible exploration of the science of faith in a book with a pastoral heart."" -Cliff Guthrie, Bangor Theological Seminary ""Scientific advances in the study of the human brain are proceeding at 'warp speed, ' raising challenging questions about human consciousness, identity, and ultimately, faith.

Instead of giving Christian clichés or therapeutic platitudes, Kapic testifies to the way in which the triune God's light shines in the darkness of physical pain, chronic illness, and loss. With pastoral sensitivity and theological insight, Kapic calls the church to live into her God-given identity, even in difficult seasons.
