Pastor Lindsey discusses the transformative impact of the Holy Spirit on decision-making and trusting God's guidance in our lives.
Podcast Episode Description What happens when we stop trying to be the deciding factor of our own lives?

Before Pentecost, the disciples cast lots to make important decisions, trusting God to guide the outcome. But after the Holy Spirit was poured out, we never see them return to that practice. Why?

Through Scripture, personal stories, and practical examples, this sermon challenges us to lay down our need for control, stop "casting lots" with our own plans and preferences, and trust the Lord to direct our paths.
