Neurogenesis is the remarkable process by which the adult brain generates new neurons. It stands as a profound symbol of the brain’s capacity for renewal and growth. Once thought to be fixed and unchanging after childhood, the discovery of new neuron formation in regions such as the hippocampus, a centre for memory and learning, has reshaped our understanding of human potential. These fresh neurons play a role in enhancing memory, emotional balance, and adaptability, offering hope for treating conditions such as depression, Alzheimer’s disease, and the cognitive decline of aging. Beyond medical breakthroughs, neurogenesis reveals the brain’s innate resilience, showing that lifestyle choices like exercise, learning, and walking with God can literally rewire and revitalise the mind. For society, this research underscores the transformative power of nurturing brain health, not only to combat disease but to cultivate sharper minds, stronger emotional wellbeing, and richer lives filled with creativity and possibility. Neural renewal is optimised when born again individuals choose to listen and to obey Jesus. Those who are led by the Spirit of God, who dwells within the body and brain of believers, will experience renewal of the mind.
