The Story Behind “Transformed by His Promises”: When Faith and Science Converge for Healing

Subscribe to Our Newsletter

When I first entered a 90-day alcohol-free program years ago, I wasn’t looking for a lifetime transformation. I just wanted relief. But God had a far bigger plan.

That program, though secular, taught powerful practices—gratitude, habit formation, and neural retraining. As I dove deeper, I realized I was seeing God’s design in motion. They were teaching the Kingdom… without the King.

 That revelation led to my first devotional, The Plans He Has for Me, which helped thousands experience the renewing of their minds through Scripture and routine. But I always sensed that the principles God showed me extended far beyond alcohol.

A Divine Connection

Years later, I heard Dr. Karl Benzio, a psychiatrist and Medical Director for the American Association of Christian Counselors, speak about Practical NeuroTheology—how God designed the brain to heal through decision-making aligned with His truth.

When I realized his scientific model perfectly matched the spiritual process I had lived, I ran to meet him. That encounter birthed Transformed by His Promises—a collaboration to help people overcome any life-interfering behavior through faith and brain science.

Why This Book Matters Now

We live in an age when anxiety, isolation, and self-medication have become “normal.” But true freedom isn’t found in numbing pain—it’s found in renewing our minds.

Through 12 weeks of guided devotion, Transformed by His Promises helps you:

  • Rewire neural pathways through biblical meditation
  • Replace destructive loops with life-giving habits
  • Experience the emotional freedom Jesus promised in John 8:36

As Dr. Benzio writes, “Faith and neuroscience aren’t enemies—they’re evidence of the same Designer.”

A New Kind of Christian Healing

Our prayer is that this devotional bridges a gap: the one between faith and psychology, prayer and practice, grace and growth.

If the 12-step model begins with powerlessness, Transformed by His Promises begins with hope—because the same power that raised Christ lives in you.

“Do not be conformed to this world, but be transformed by the renewing of your mind.” —Romans 12:2
