What if the path to real transformation isn't found in more information, but in deeper conversation?

Return to Heart releases a new episode every other Wednesday morning.

    14: Living With an Addict: The Side No One Talks About

    Addiction doesn’t just affect the person acting out—it impacts everyone connected to them. In this episode of Return to Heart, the conversation turns toward the often-overlooked reality of spouses, children, parents, and loved ones living alongside addiction. Through personal stories, clinical insight, and family systems theory, the hosts explore what it’s like to be on the other side of compulsive behavior—the loneliness, the silence, the roles we take on just to survive. This episode covers: • Why addiction is a family system, not an individual problem • The hidden roles families adopt to avoid abandonment • Loneliness, chaos, and unspoken rules inside addictive homes • Why spouses and children often need as much—or more—care than the addict • What it means to begin feeling, trusting, and speaking again If you’ve ever loved someone who was unavailable, compulsive, or addicted, this conversation is for you. 🔗 Resources mentioned in this episode are available at tinman.org

    13: The Bible, The Brain, and Why Feelings Matter

    What if your feelings were never the enemy of your faith? In this episode of Return to Heart, we explore how neuroscience, Scripture, and lived human experience all point to the same truth: God designed us to feel first, not last. From John Calvin to modern brain science, from attachment theory to Scripture, this conversation reveals how healing, transformation, and spiritual maturity happen through vulnerability—not around it. We discuss: Why the Bible has never been contradicted by archaeology or neuroscienceHow the brain is wired for protection and connectionWhy feelings lead us to God rather than away from HimHow trauma lives in the body and how healing actually worksWhy faith that bypasses the heart eventually collapses This is Part 2 of a two-part conversation. If you haven’t listened to Part 1 yet, finish this episode first—then go back to episode 12.

    012: The Missing Piece in Spiritual Growth

    What if the way many of us were taught to grow spiritually actually cost us intimacy with God? In this episode of Return To Heart, Jeff and Phil explore a story that shaped decades of faith, discipleship, and emotional disconnection—beginning in a Yale dorm room in 1980 and unfolding into a powerful conversation about facts, feelings, faith, and how God actually designed us. Through vivid metaphors—the chalkboard, the train, the chair, and even a man riding an elephant—this conversation challenges the idea that spiritual maturity means suppressing emotion. Instead, it invites listeners into a fuller, relational faith where truth about God and truth about ourselves belong together. This episode is for anyone who: Knows the “right answers” but still feels distant from GodWas taught that emotions are dangerous or unspiritualFeels spiritually mature yet relationally disconnectedWants a faith that includes their whole heart This is not about abandoning truth. It’s about learning how truth actually transforms.

    011: Emotions Unveiled: Feeling & Experiencing More

    Most of us have spent a lifetime becoming right-leg dominant — relying on intellect, morality, and sheer willpower to survive life. But, the parts of us designed for intimacy, connection, and vulnerability? Those got left behind. In this episode of Return to Heart, we unpack one of the most transformative metaphors we’ve ever used: 👉 The right leg and the left leg. Drawing from tens of thousands of hours working with men and women, we walk through why so many of us feel spiritually “stuck” even though we know the right things and work hard to do them. We also introduce Emotions Unveiled, a discipleship tool designed to reawaken the parts of your heart God built for connection. ✨ In this episode: • Why intellect, morality, and hard work aren’t enough • The meaning of being “right-leg dominant” • Rediscovering the “left leg” — the emotional, relational side of life • How Scripture gives emotional language for healing • Why emotional maturity fuels spiritual maturity • The structure and purpose of Emotions Unveiled • Stories of transformation through emotional discipleship

    010: Alignment: The Journey from Hiding to Healing

    Alignment isn’t about perfection — it’s about returning home to who God made us to be. In this episode of Return to Heart, we explore the final stage of the transformational process: alignment—stepping out of hiding, confronting shame, receiving acceptance, and rediscovering our God-given identity. Through honest storytelling, real-time vulnerability, and examples from Scripture—including the Prodigal Son—we unpack how alignment flows naturally from admission, acceptance, attunement, and healthy attachment. We also share personal stories of stepping out of the “closet,” facing old narratives, and allowing trusted relationships to realign us with truth. If you’ve ever felt out of sync, unseen, or unsure where you belong… this episode is for you. ✨ Topics we explore: • What alignment really means in spiritual and emotional life • How relationships help us heal shame and rediscover identity • Why correction and confrontation only work when love comes first • The power of acceptance, attunement, and attachment • Real stories of stepping out of hiding and into who God made us to be • What Jesus models for us through compassion, attunement, and restoration

    008: Admission: Confession, Community, and the Courage to Come Home

    In this raw and honest episode, the Tin Man team — Jeff, Todd, and Phil — explore the power of admission: the moment when life’s pain and exhaustion become too heavy to carry, and we finally come to ourselves. Drawing from the story of the Prodigal Son in Luke 15, they discuss why our lowest moments often open the door to healing, how shame and fear keep us from being honest, and why confession is a communal act — not a solo one. ✨ What you’ll hear in this episode: - The transformational process: from brokenness to wholeness - Why “admission” is more than confession — it’s awakening - How rock bottom moments become grace - What it means to find safety, honesty, and healing in community

    007: Addiction: The Hidden Addictions We Don’t Talk About

    Addiction isn’t only about substances—it’s about survival. In this powerful conversation, we reveal how our need for connection can twist into compulsions that look acceptable on the outside but exhaust us on the inside. From food to phones to ministry itself, we expose the subtle ways we try to escape loneliness, fear, and shame. You’ll hear how dopamine, shame, and “chunking” shape addictive cycles—and how genuine connection breaks them. This episode is raw, redemptive, and full of practical hope for anyone caught in performance or perfectionism. ✨ What you’ll hear in this episode: - Addiction as a response to codependency and exhaustion - The neuroscience of dopamine and “chunking” - Why the opposite of addiction is connection—not sobriety
