Why does change feel so uncomfortable - even when the change is good?

In the final episode of the Psych Series, Ashley explores the psychology behind why our brains crave familiarity, why transitions can leave us feeling unsettled, and how changes in our circumstances can challenge our sense of identity.

But change and growth aren’t the same thing.

Change happens to us; growth is what we allow God to produce through it.

Through psychology, the Bible, and Ashley’s own journey from her military career to become a stay-at-home mom, this episode explores how changing seasons can become catalysts for internal and spiritual transformation.

Abraham stepped into the unknown, the pruning of John 15, and the reminder that there is “a season, and a time for every matter under heaven,” - we see again and again that God often does some of His deepest work in seasons of transition.

You don’t have to hate the old season to embrace the new one. You can grieve what was, thank God for what it gave you, and still trust Him with what comes next.

Because while seasons change, Jesus Christ is the same yesterday and today and forever. - Hebrews 13:8
