We can't change what happened—but we can change how our minds hold it. In this powerful episode, Heather McKean sits down with Air Force veteran Matt Jefson, who carried the memory of losing 13 friends in combat for nearly two decades. Through Mind Change, Matt learned how to rewire it—transforming trauma into peace, triggers into awareness, and loss into meaning. Together, Heather and Matt reveal how rewiring the past frees us from reliving it, restores connection, and opens the door to genuine healing. Whether you've faced trauma, loss, or emotional overwhelm, this conversation offers hope and a new way to come home to yourself.What we explore in this episode:

What happens when we finally wake up to the reality that life apart from God doesn't work?In Luke 15, Jesus tells the story of a son who chased freedom but found famine. Yet in the middle of his mess, something shifts: “when he came to himself.” That's where conviction begins—when we realize sin over-promised and under-delivered, and the Father's love is already waiting on the porch.This week, Pastor Gregg reminds us that repentance isn't about fixing ourselves; it's about returning home to a Father who runs toward us with compassion.Subscribe to stay up to date with what God is doing at Creekside Church!Website: https://creekside.churchInstagram: @creeksidechurchnp

In our busy, distraction-filled world, it's easy to push God down our priority list. When we make good things like family, career, or hobbies into ultimate things, they become idols that leave us constantly striving but never satisfied. The prophet Haggai warned about this pattern - working hard but never getting ahead, accumulating more but never feeling fulfilled. To put God back in His rightful place, we need to prioritize four key areas: reading Scripture, worship and prayer; building godly community; generous giving; and active service. The challenge is to give God our best 12 hours out of our weekly 119 waking hours, not just our leftovers. When we seek God first, everything else in our lives can fall into proper alignment.

Tim Christophersen joins the Internet of Nature Podcast to talk about his new book, Generation Restoration, and why nature isn't a luxury—it's our only home. From his first steps in the forest with his forester grandfather to leading the UN Decade on Ecosystem Restoration, and now as VP of Climate Action at Salesforce, Tim shares why waiting for perfection paralyzes companies, what greenwashing gets wrong, and how corporate pledges can move from CSR to true business resilience.We explore why our ecological crisis is rooted in a 300-year-old worldview, how oyster reefs once filtered New York Harbor daily (and could again), and why AI might help “make us all ecologists,” from smallholder farmers in Colombia to city dwellers identifying birdsong. Plus: the role of imagination in rewriting our relationship with nature, the personal challenge of writing a book with Jane Goodall's final foreword, and why, as Tim says, “Nature is waiting. It's time to come home.”

Have you ever felt like you’ve been living as a version of yourself that isn’t quite you—the one who smiles when exhausted, says “I’m fine” when breaking, and keeps the peace even when your soul is screaming for truth? While most healing advice focuses on moving forward, real transformation happens when you come home to yourself. In this powerful episode, psychologist, author, and sacred artist Dr Thema Bryant reveals the journey from trauma to truth and what it truly means to reclaim your authentic self after years of people-pleasing and self-abandonment. The Healer Who Has Healed Dr Thema Bryant isn’t just a psychologist who studies healing—she’s a healer who has walked her own journey through trauma and transformation. As a survivor of sexual violence, she discovered that reclaiming her body through dance protected her relationship with herself during the healing process. With a doctorate in Clinical Psychology from Duke University, post-doctoral training at Harvard Medical Centre’s Victims of Violence Program, and as the 2023 president of the American Psychological Association, Dr Thema combines academic excellence with deeply personal wisdom. Her recently released book, Matters of the Heart (Penguin Random House, February 2025), empowers readers to heal their relationships with themselves and others. What Homecoming Really Means Dr Thema’s most powerful insight: “To come home to myself is to tell myself the truth and to live based on that truth.” When we experience interpersonal trauma, we develop survival mechanisms that disconnect us from ourselves. We become experts at anticipating others’ needs, moulding ourselves to keep the peace, and sending our “representative” instead of our authentic self. This people-pleasing pattern may have kept us safe, but it keeps us living as side characters in our own lives. The Truth About Healing “Healing doesn’t always feel good in the moment. Healing can feel awkward. It can feel messy. I’ve even had some people say it feels fake because they’re used to faking it.” This discomfort triggers our deepest fears of abandonment and rejection. But here’s the liberating truth: you can be real and still be loved. While some people may walk away when you show up authentically, this creates space for genuine connections with kindred spirits who align with your true self. Trauma Affects You, But It Doesn’t Define You Dr Thema reveals how many of us unconsciously make the people who hurt us the central characters in our lives. “Everything we do is in response to them—’I hope they see me now. Wait till they see me now.’ So they’re still the centre of it. I’m trying to prove my worthiness to them.” The gift of healing is removing them from centre stage and showing up fully for your own life. From Surviving to Thriving Dr Thema draws a critical distinction using Maya Angelou’s wisdom: “Surviving is necessary, but thriving is elegant.” Survival is making it through each day. Thriving is developing your gifts, cultivating healthy relationships, building your strengths, and learning to be soft in places you’ve hardened. The journey requires moving beyond just relieving distress to experiencing genuine growth, purpose, and joy. Breaking Generational Patterns Some wounds we have, we actually inherited. Dr Thema encourages us to reflect on which lessons from our parents and ancestors are wisdom worth keeping, which need adjustment, and which should be released entirely. We can honour previous generations without duplicating patterns that no longer serve us. The Boundary Challenge On boundaries, Dr Thema offers revealing insight: from childhood, girls are conditioned through toys and social messaging to prioritise caretaking and self-sacrifice, while boys learn to advocate for themselves and pursue what they want. When you take care of yourself, people call it selfish—but that’s the conditioning we must unlearn. Three Golden Nuggets: Start Today Wake Up Before You Have to Get Up. Start your day nourishing yourself instead of rushing around feeling anxious. Create morning space for you. Check Your Circle: Be careful about who you keep in your inner circle. Choose people aligned with your healing who see your value and worth. Never Give Up on Chang.e You are not stuck. Whatever age you are, it’s not too late to grow, transform, and give yourself permission to try something different. About Dr Thema Bryant Dr Thema Bryant is a psychologist, author, professor, sacred artist, and minister leading the way in creating healthy relationships and healing trauma. She is a tenured professor at Pepperdine University, host of The Homecoming Podcast, and author of Matters of the Heart. Dr. Thema is an ordained elder in the African Methodist Episcopal Church and leads the mental health ministry at First A.M.E. Church in Los Angeles. Key Takeaway Coming home to yourself isn’t about learning more tactics. It’s about doing the internal work to tell yourself the truth, reclaim your voice, and live from the center of your being. When you can be authentic instead of performing, you unlock a level of freedom that changes everything.

Tigers vs. Mariners.

October 6th, 2025

In times when God seems silent to our prayers, we often feel disappointed and confused. The story of Elijah teaches us that God often speaks not in dramatic displays of power, but in a gentle whisper that requires closeness and intimacy. Faith isn't about having all the answers or certainty; it's about wrestling with doubt while continuing to trust. When facing disappointment with God, we should ask honest questions, acknowledge our feelings without letting them control us, and develop an 'even if' faith that trusts God regardless of outcomes. True humility means accepting that some things are for God alone to know, while drawing closer to Him even in our confusion.

(Luke 15:20-24) Journeying With The Father: The story of the prodigal son is really the story of a wonderful father.
