The Bible Says, “Give It to God,” But How Do You Do That When You Need Control to Feel Safe?
About this episode
This episode explores the challenges of surrendering control to God and the emotional turmoil that can accompany the process.

Because letting go sounds spiritual, but holding on feels safer. If you’ve ever wondered why surrender feels more stressful than control, this conversation is for you.
