God's word and science are always in sync, when we know where to look.

Words are powerful. God says so, science says so.

Phil 4:8 tells us to think on whatever it true, noble, right, pure, lovely, admirable, excellent or praiseworthy.

Science tell us that dwelling on negativity or thinking negative thoughts, even looking at negative words can be detrimental to our overall well being.

On this episode we look at scientific research and compare it to God's word on how important it is to dwell on the positive.

You may want to re-listen to episode four to remember what I said about the responsiblity between the speaker and the listener.
