Today, we’re diving into a topic that many believers and scholars are just beginning to talk about: neurodivergence in the Bible.

Neurodivergence is the idea that there isn’t just one right way for a brain to work. That human minds exist across a spectrum of ways of thinking, feeling, processing, and perceiving the world. Some of us are linear and structured. Some are deeply emotional. Some are intensely focused, and others are beautifully scattered and creative. And all of it is part of the image of God.

So what if some of the great figures of Scripture—the prophets, the poets, the visionaries—experienced the world differently? What if their differences weren’t obstacles to their calling, but part of it?
