SHE  with Jordan Lee Dooley

Surrendering to God When You're Holding on to Control (Ft. Tara Sun)


Listen Later

Surrendering and letting go of control is a challenging topic to hear, but it is central to the life of a Christian.

While our fear or stress would lead us to try and control our circumstances, and society would have us manifest our way to happiness, the truth is that we can’t control everything.

Surrendering to God’s plan, even in the midst of challenging circumstances, can bring much greater peace than our own control ever could.

In this episode, Jordan talks with author Tara Sun about how to surrender to God and let Him take control.

Tune in to this episode to learn:

  • The difference between surrendering and giving up
  • What the Bible says about surrender
  • Encouragement for those with unmet expectations
  • How secular ideas feed into the myth of control
  • The importance and value of patience and walking at God’s pace
