Blessed + Bossed Up

Addicted to Control


Listen Later

In this final episode of the Internal Harmony Series, we’re tackling the “big C word” — control. Control isn’t just a personality trait; it’s a spiritual stronghold that keeps us bound, quenches the Spirit, and robs us of God’s peace.

In this episode, I share a recent testimony about what happened when I surrendered control, unpack why the Bible calls us to release it, and walk through case studies of the Rich Young Ruler and Paul to show the difference between clinging to control and living surrendered.

You’ll learn:

  • Why control is a stronghold and how it quenches the Spirit (1 Thessalonians 5:19)
  • How control shows up as a cognitive distortion
  • The root issue of trust and how to rebuild it
  • A practical Weekly Surrender Challenge to live this out

This episode will equip you to exchange control for surrender and experience the internal harmony God desires for you.
