Episode 15: Surrender

Episode 15: Surrender

Control is an illusion…

Sometimes we think we can make life happen on our own terms and even trick ourselves into believing that we are in the driver's seat. But, the reality is that we are not in ultimate control because we are not God. In this episode we discuss the spiritual practice of surrender and how giving up control leads to a life lived freely and lightly.

  • Control is an illusion. If we want to live freely and lightly then we must let go of our agenda for Gods. That means we have to want what He wants. How do we get there? Join us this month as we explore the spiritual practice of surrender, and how it aligns our heart with the heart of God.
