It's Self-Brain Surgery Saturday!Today, a talk about whether we're stuck with our feelings, diagnoses, or past traumas, or not. Am I just a skin sack of neurons? Or I am I fearfully and wonderfully made? What if we actually have a tremendous amount of control over these things? The good news is, we do! How we think changes how we live, even if we've been through TBI, TMT, or any other type of problem. No diagnosis is more powerful than the incredible smashing together of your brain, mind, and spirit. Why? Because you have a Great Physician, my friend.Scripture: II Timothy 1:7Book mentioned: Am I Just My Brain? by Sharon Dirckx(We are on a 2-week sabbatical to prepare for Season 10.
