Listen "Strength in Surrender"
Episode Synopsis
The Cost of Following Jesus: What Is He Asking You to Surrender?*
Episode Summary
Obedience to God isn’t always easy—sometimes, it costs us more than we ever expected. In this episode of *The Renewed Rebel*, I’m sharing a deeply personal journey of faith, surrender, and radical obedience. We’ll dive into **Luke 9** and explore what it truly means to follow Jesus, even when it costs us relationships, comfort, or control.
I’ll share how this truth hit me hard during a recent sermon, my own wrestling with surrendering my marriage, and how God gave me a powerful vision that changed my perspective. We’ll also break down the difference between **external resistance** (spiritual attacks) and **internal resistance** (fear, doubt, and the need for control).
If you’ve been struggling to take that next step of obedience, this episode is for you. You don’t need to know the whole plan—you just need to trust the One who does.
**In This Episode, We’ll Talk About:**
✔️ The **cost** of following Jesus (Luke 9:57-62)
✔️ Why **obedience comes before understanding**
✔️ The story of **Abraham & Isaac** and what it teaches us about trust (Genesis 22)
✔️ How to discern **spiritual resistance vs. personal hesitation**
✔️ The **one step of obedience** you can take this week
**Listen Now & Be Encouraged to Trust God More Deeply!**
