No More Perfect Podcast with Jill Savage

What Does Surrender Look Like? | Episode 161


Listen Later

In our journey through life, we tend to think of surrender as letting our own will be taken prisoner. Our American culture even teaches us to value our freedom and independence above all else. However, the reality is that surrender is the key to a successful life. If you are a believer, it’s also a vital part of the Christian walk. A lack of surrender can cause us to get stuck in our journey, leading to anger and a desire to control everything around us.

Today, Mark is joining me because surrender is a big part of our story. Surrender is an important thing not only to understand but to recognize the role it should play in our day-to-day.

Join Mark and I as we share:

  • How surrender and control are connected
  • Why it's okay that God’s plan doesn’t always make sense
  • What it looks like to let go of doing things your way
  • And more!

We pray this episode is helpful to you today!
