Heart Set Above

Surrender Without Giving Up: Parenting Adult Kids with Grace


Listen Later

This is Part 4 of our series with host Ellen Radcliff, LMFT—for Christian parents navigating complicated or strained relationships with their adult children—especially those who have stepped away from the faith.


In this episode, Ellen explores the spiritual invitation of surrender—not as weakness or defeat, but as a powerful act of trust. When control fades, and answers seem elusive, how do you stay connected to your child and to God?


💡You’ll learn:


What surrender actually means (hint: it’s not giving up)


Why your role as a parent shifts from action to influence


Why your spiritual formation still matters—even now


📖 “Maybe it’s time to stop trying to be your child’s savior… and start being God’s daughter again.”


If you feel spiritually depleted, emotionally exhausted, or unsure of what’s next—this episode is a gentle invitation to rest, reconnect, and release.
