The Grand Canyon Synod invites you to an extraordinary free webinar exploring how neuroscience and spiritual practices are transforming the landscape of addiction recovery. Titled “Rewiring the Brain, Restoring the Soul: Integrating Neuroscience, Faith, and Addiction Recovery,” this webinar is a must-attend for clergy, counselors, faith leaders, and anyone touched by addiction—personally or through someone they love.

Join us Wednesday, April 30 at 12:00 p.m. CT (1:00 p.m. ET) for a powerful conversation with cognitive neuroscientist Dr. Jeffrey Leighton of the Prayer Collective and recovery leader Jeff Jensen of RockBridge Treatment & Recovery. Together, they will unpack how prayer, neurofeedback, and hospitality-driven care can regulate brain activity, reduce cravings, relieve anxiety, and restore hope.

Dr. Leighton, professor and director of the Neuro Lab at North Central University, researches how prayer and neurofeedback support Gen Z students and individuals recovering from trauma and addiction. His innovative work combines neuroscience, faith, and technologies like photobiomodulation to develop new faith-based recovery protocols.

Jeff Jensen brings over 17 years of experience in addiction treatment and leads RockBridge, a short-term residential recovery program that balances faith and evidence-based care with the unique needs of working adults, clergy, and professionals.

The event is hosted by George A. Wood, author, speaker, pastor, and founder of the Sober Truth Project—a living testament to the power of faith and healing after deep struggles with addiction and trauma.

This webinar offers practical insights, emerging research, and inspiring stories that connect science and spirit—tools to support you in ministry, in care, and in your personal journey.
