Letting Go So God Can Lead
Following Jesus requires more than asking Him to bless our plans—it requires surrendering control to Him. In Part 5 of the Kingdom First series, we discover what it means to deny ourselves, release what we are trying to control, and confidently follow the direction of Christ.
Uncertainty can leave us worried, hesitant, and desperate to understand what God is doing. In this episode of the RENEW Podcast, “How to Trust God When You Don’t Know What Comes Next,” we discover from Proverbs 3:5–6 how to surrender the unknown, obey the next step, and confidently follow the God who already sees the entire path.
God’s faithfulness remains steady through every season of life, even when circumstances change and people struggle. In this milestone episode, Still Here, Still Faithful , we reflect on the goodness of God, the importance of staying grounded in His Word, and how His faithfulness continues to sustain believers year after year.
God never called His people to live divided between faith and the world. In this episode, Halfway Won’t Hold (1 Kings 18:21) , we examine the danger of lukewarm Christianity, divided loyalty, and why wholehearted commitment to God is the only foundation that truly lasts.
Every day, the choices you make are strengthening something within you—either your spiritual life or your fleshly desires. In this episode, What You’re Feeding Will Grow , we explore how daily habits, influences, and spiritual disciplines shape your heart, your mindset, and ultimately the direction of your life.
True freedom is found in more than independence, success, or personal choice—it is found in Jesus Christ alone. In this episode, Free Indeed (John 8:36) , we explore the difference between outward freedom and inward bondage, and how Christ offers lasting freedom from sin, fear, guilt, and spiritual captivity.
Many people today are constantly busy yet still feel spiritually drained and emotionally exhausted. In this episode, Busy, Tired, and Spiritually Empty , we talk about burnout, spiritual fatigue, and how to find true rest in Christ instead of trying to survive on empty strength.
The world desperately needs men who lead with humility, integrity, and genuine faith in God. In this episode, A Faith Worth Following (Fathers Who Lead Well) , we explore what biblical leadership truly looks like and why the greatest legacy a father can leave is a life that points others toward Christ.
In this episode of RENEW, we look at the powerful reminder from Psalm 107: “Let the redeemed of the LORD say so.” God has been good, gracious, and faithful to redeem us, and His people should not be silent about it. This episode encourages believers to speak up, give thanks, and share what the Lord has done.
