What if the wounds you've been quietly carrying your whole life were never meant to stay hidden? In this powerful conversation, Pastor Derwin and Licensed Professional Counselor Jim Cress explore the transformative message at the heart of Pastor Derwin's new book, *It's Time to Heal: Four God-Given Steps to Restore What Life Has Shattered*. Drawing from Romans 12:2—"Do not conform to the pattern of this world, but be transformed by the renewing of your mind. Then you will be able to test and approve what God's will is—his good, pleasing and perfect will"—Pastor Derwin reveals how neuroscience is catching up to what Scripture has proclaimed for centuries: real healing transforms us from the inside out. Through his own story of trauma, shame, and breakthrough, he unpacks the HEAL framework—Honest about what happened, Expect turbulence, Accept what took place, and Live from love, not for love—showing that true wholeness isn't behavioral modification but a new creation encounter with Jesus. As Jim affirms, this integration of theology, psychology, and neurobiology isn't compromise—it's wisdom. If you feel stuck, ashamed, or secretly broken, Jesus is already at the table with a cup of coffee saying, "I already know, and I love you." Pre-order *It's Time to Heal* today and take your first step toward freedom.
