Why is surrender so difficult...even when we say we trust God?

In this episode, we unpack the tension between control and faith. We explore the deeper issue beneath our need to manage outcomes, predict timelines, and force clarity - and why letting go can feel more threatening than staying in control.

Where did that need for control come from?
Is it fear? Past disappointment? A desire to protect ourselves from uncertainty?

This conversation uncovers why surrender isn’t passive, weak, or irresponsible. It’s active trust. It’s obedience without all the details. It’s choosing faith when the plan doesn’t match your expectations.

If you’ve been wrestling with delays, unanswered prayers, closed doors, or the anxiety of not knowing what’s next - this episode creates space to reflect on whether you’re truly trusting His plan... or trying to rewrite it.

Surrender isn’t about giving up.
It’s about handing it over.
