S3 EP16: When You Feel Out of Control:Surrender, Identity & Praying for the People You Love with Jodie Berndt


Listen Later

What do you do when the outcome you want feels out of reach?

When the people you love are walking through things you can’t fix…

And when control feels like a survival tactic you just can’t shake?


In this episode, I sit down with Jodie Berndt—speaker, author, and the voice behind the Praying the Scriptures series—for a conversation that goes way beyond parenting.


Whether you’re single, married, parenting toddlers, teenagers, or simply trying to love the people in your life well… this episode is for you.


We talk about:

• Why surrender is at the heart of every healthy relationship (marriage, parenting, or otherwise)

• What it really means to trust God when your heart feels protective, anxious, or out of control

• How to pray Scripture over your marriage (and why praying for your spouse changes you, too)

• What to do when God feels silent

• Releasing the need for quick fixes and embracing the long game of faith

• Identity in seasons when prayers feel unanswered


This is not a conversation about perfect prayers or tidy outcomes. It’s about choosing trust over fear… surrender over striving… and remembering that God cares even more than we do.
