A few episodes back, my friend Amanda shared her powerful journey of learning to hear God’s voice and step out in obedience—even when it didn’t make sense. But here’s the thing: hearing God is just the beginning. Because once we recognize His voice, He often calls us to surrender in ways we never expected.

That’s what we’re diving into today—what it really means to surrender control and trust God, even when the process is hard, even when the outcome isn’t immediate blessing, and even when it feels like we’re being pruned instead of rewarded.

In this episode, Amanda and I talk about:
✨ The ongoing journey of trusting God beyond the first ‘yes.’
✨ What happens when surrender feels like loss instead of gain.
✨ How God uses pruning seasons to grow deeper faith and produce more fruit.
✨ Practical ways to trust God when surrender feels scary or painful.

If you’ve ever felt like letting go is the hardest part of following Jesus, this episode is for you. Amanda shares wisdom, encouragement, and personal stories to remind us that surrender isn’t about losing—it’s about making room for something greater.
