So often we live life with our hands clenched—grasping for control, attempting to carry the weight of the world. In this episode of The Conversation podcast, Adam takes a look at Psalm 55:22, inviting those listening to pray in a different way than they maybe ever have before—palms down in surrender and palms up to receive.

In episode 22, Adam sits down with author and speaker Jennifer Dukes Lee. Jennifer talks about connecting with God on her northwest Iowa farm, her brand new book, and her lifelong journey of learning to let go of control. Adam and Jennifer also dive into the publishing world, with Jennifer sharing her knowledge as an acquisitions editor on how to write a book and work to get a book deal.

If reading our Bibles and "going deeper" doesn’t lead to certain things, it’s possible we’re becoming a Pharisee not a disciple of Jesus. The difference is subtle, yet critically important. Which one are you becoming?
