Story
In the aftermath of stress, disappointment, and trauma, people often fall into survival mode, even while a part of them longs for more. Juggling multiple demands and responsibilities keeps them busy, but not healed. As a survivor of sexual assault, racism, and evacuation from a civil war in Liberia, Dr. Thema Bryant knows intimately the work involved in healing. Having made the journey herself, in addition to guiding others as a clinical psychologist and ordained minister, Dr. Thema shows you how to reconnect with your authentic self and reclaim your time, your voice, your life.

Survivor, this is the book you’ve been waiting for

I am taken aback by how thorough this journey is. It follows a similar structure as Dr. Thema’s podcast in the homecoming journey, and to have it all in one place is truly a treasure. I honestly need to re-read this book to gauge where I am on my healing journey, as I consumed it quickly unable to put it down. This book is for anyone who has ever been broken by any sort of traumatic or oppressive experience. I appreciate the author, the book, and her calming voice throughout. I am inspired to further get acquainted with my “home” as something I create to nourish, heal & center myself in the middle of all life throws my way. Thank you, Dr. Thema Bryant, for sharing the journey as a guide & sister in Christ! (P.S. You don’t have to have a faith to read this book, but Dr. Thema focuses on the homecoming journey being holistic encompassing physical, emotional, mental & spiritual aspects of ourselves. She does a great job at interweaving issues people of faith may have with mental health and vice versa with mental health focused people on faith. No matter what you believe, the book will be healing).

Story
"We have to test everything. I thank God for anybody anywhere who is pointing people to the mysteries of God. But those people would all tell you to think long and hard about what they are saying and doing and creating. Test it. Probe it. Do that to this book. Don't swallow it uncritically. Think about it. Wrestle with it. Just because I'm a Christian and I'm trying to articulate a Christian worldview doesn't mean I've got it nailed. I'm contributing to the discussion. God has spoken, and the rest is commentary, right?" (Rob Bell)

Wonderful read. I’m not sure if Love Wins or Velvet Elvis comes first, but they’re both complementary

Story
Your greatest regret at the end of your life will be the lions you didn't chase. You will look back longingly on risks not taken, opportunities not seized, and dreams not pursued. Stop running away from what scares you most and start chasing the God-ordained opportunities that cross your path.
