Paperback. Condizione: new. Paperback. Neuroscience-Informed Pastoral Formation Intervention (NIPFI) By Ephraim T. Gwebu, PhDThis document presents the NIPFI - a 60-hour pastoral formation curriculum designed to be piloted across four theological colleges in Zambia, Ghana, Kenya, and Malawi. Its central argument is that the recu…rring pastoral failures across sub-Saharan Africa (sexual misconduct, financial abuse, exploitation) are not primarily failures of doctrine but of character - and that character is a trainable brain function.Drawing on neuroplasticity research, interpersonal neurobiology (Siegel), polyvagal theory (Porges), and African Ubuntu philosophy, the NIPFI proposes that qualities essential to effective ministry - empathy, self-regulation, calm presence under pressure - are measurable, developable brain capacities, not fixed personality traits. The curriculum integrates the Neuroverse(TM) framework (Douyon) with Ubuntu anthropology as co-constitutive pillars, grounding the approach in both modern neuroscience and African relational wisdom.The document covers the theoretical rationale, curriculum design, a quasi-experimental evaluation protocol, and direct responses to theological objections (such as concerns about reducing faith to brain chemistry). It concludes with a five-commitment reform agenda for theological colleges and argues that neuroscience-informed formation strengthens rather than undermines the Christian vision of genuine character transformation - aligning the biblical call to "renewal of the mind" (Romans 12:2) with the scientific reality of neuroplasticity.The work is commended by Bongani Ndlovu, President of the Zimbabwe West Union Conference and Chancellor of Solusi University, as a timely and practically usable contribution to reforming pastoral training across Africa.

Paperback. Condizione: new. Paperback. "The fear of the LORD is the beginning of wisdom."Proverbs 9:10 Pride is the root of all evil. It was born the moment Lucifer declared, "I will be like the Most High" (Isaiah 14:14). Every sin, every war, every act of racism and tribalism since then flows from that one catastrophic choice.B…ut God was not surprised. Before the foundations of the world crumbled, He had already prepared His answer - a First Angel, flying in midair, carrying the Eternal Gospel to every nation, tribe, and people: "Fear God and give Him glory." Five words that cut to the very root of evil.As a neuroscientist, Dr. Gwebu reveals something remarkable: pride is not only a spiritual condition - it has a biological dimension. Through mirror neurons, pride is transmitted from leader to follower, generation to generation - rewiring the brain itself. Yet the same God who designed the brain also designed its remedy: neuroplasticity, the God-given capacity to change. Total surrender to Christ can rewire what pride has wired. The image of God, marred by the Fall, can be recovered. This book is for every layman who loves the Bible. For every pastor struggling with pride in the pulpit.For every African brother and sister caught is the grip of tribalism. For every heart that has ever chosen personal glory above God's.The First Angel is still flying. The Eternal Gospel is still being proclaimed.It is time to Fear God.Ephraim T. Gwebu, PhDMedical Biochemistry & Neuroscience - Professor Emeritus - Church Elder This item is printed on demand.

Paperback. Condizione: new. Paperback. Summary: Rewiring the Soul by Ephraim T. Gwebu, PhDRewiring the Soul: A Brain Science-Informed Approach to Pastoral Formation is a scholarly yet pastoral work that addresses a quiet but serious crisis in African Christianity - the widespread pattern of pastoral misconduct - and proposes a t…heologically grounded, neurologically informed solution.The Crisis (Part 1) The book opens by documenting the scale of pastoral misconduct across African church contexts, encompassing sexual exploitation, financial abuse, and authoritarian misuse of power. Gwebu argues this is not a crisis of individual moral failure but of systemic formation failure. Current theological training in Africa equips pastors to preach, administer, and defend doctrine - but largely neglects the interior formation of the person behind the pulpit. Drawing on Dallas Willard, the author contends that the church has long prioritised performance over transformation, producing competent religious professionals whose deepest loves remain uncalibrated by Christ.The Mechanism (Parts 2-3) At the heart of the book is the concept of the Brain's Attention Filter (BAF(TM)) - a proprietary framework describing the neurological gatekeeper that shapes what a person notices, desires, and ultimately pursues. Pastoral misconduct, Gwebu argues, follows a predictable trajectory: a gradual drift of the BAF(TM) away from Jesus as first love, toward self-serving gratifications. This drift is rarely sudden; it begins with prayer becoming duty rather than delight, and ends in catastrophic moral failure. The remedy is not stricter rules but deeper love - when a pastor genuinely falls in love with Jesus, the Holy Spirit recalibrates the BAF(TM) from within, producing integrity that no external policy can manufacture.The Formation Model and NIPCS (Parts 4-5) Gwebu proposes a four-pillar formation model built around Growth Mindset, Mindfulness, Mindsight, and Self-talk. Complementing this is the Neuroscience-Informed Pastoral Competency Scale (NIPCS(TM)), co-developed with Dr. Christopher Mukuka, an assessment instrument designed to measure interior formation indicators - including BAF(TM) calibration, self-regulatory capacity, empathic attunement, and centrality of love for Christ - rather than mere knowledge and skill.The Conclusion (Parts 5-6) The book closes with a call to intimacy with Jesus Christ (Colossians 1:27) as the irreducible foundation of genuine pastoral ministry, accompanied by proposals for institutional and curricular reform that African denominations can practically implement.Foreworded by Dr. H. S. Akombwa, President of the Southern Africa-Indian Ocean Division of Seventh-day Adventists, Rewiring the Soul is a bold, compassionate, and constructive contribution to the future of pastoral formation in Africa.

Complementing this is the Neuroscience-Informed Pastoral Competency Scale (NIPCS(TM)), co-developed with Dr. Christopher Mukuka, an assessment instrument designed to measure interior formation indicators - including BAF(TM) calibration, self-regulatory capacity, empathic attunement, and centrality of love for Christ - rather than mere knowledge and skill.The Conclusion (Parts 5-6) The book closes with a call to intimacy with Jesus Christ (Colossians 1:27) as the irreducible foundation of genuine pastoral ministry, accompanied by proposals for institutional and curricular reform that African denominations can practically implement.Foreworded by Dr. H. S. Akombwa, President of the Southern Africa-Indian Ocean Division of Seventh-day Adventists, Rewiring the Soul is a bold, compassionate, and constructive contribution to the future of pastoral formation in Africa.

Taschenbuch. Condizione: Neu. nach der Bestellung gedruckt Neuware - Printed after ordering - 'The fear of the LORD is the beginning of wisdom.'Proverbs 9:10 Pride is the root of all evil. It was born the moment Lucifer declared, 'I will be like the Most High' (Isaiah 14:14). Every sin, every war, every act of racism and tribali…sm since then flows from that one catastrophic choice.But God was not surprised. Before the foundations of the world crumbled, He had already prepared His answer - a First Angel, flying in midair, carrying the Eternal Gospel to every nation, tribe, and people: 'Fear God and give Him glory.' Five words that cut to the very root of evil.As a neuroscientist, Dr. Gwebu reveals something remarkable: pride is not only a spiritual condition - it has a biological dimension. Through mirror neurons, pride is transmitted from leader to follower, generation to generation - rewiring the brain itself. Yet the same God who designed the brain also designed its remedy: neuroplasticity, the God-given capacity to change. Total surrender to Christ can rewire what pride has wired. The image of God, marred by the Fall, can be recovered. This book is for every layman who loves the Bible. For every pastor struggling with pride in the pulpit.For every African brother and sister caught is the grip of tribalism. For every heart that has ever chosen personal glory above God's.The First Angel is still flying. The Eternal Gospel is still being proclaimed.It is time to Fear God.Ephraim T. Gwebu, PhDMedical Biochemistry & Neuroscience ¿ Professor Emeritus ¿ Church Elder.
