How are you weathering the season you’re in? In this episode of Bewildered, we talk about what it really means to surrender to the season, whether it’s an upstate New York winter, perimenopause, a busy parenting era, or the “my foot hurts and I think my gums are receding” phase of life. We talk about how culture tries to flatten all seasons into one endless, brightly lit, 69-degrees-and-productive-all-the-time moment, and why our bodies, souls, and sanity refuse to go along with that plan.

Last week, Jason and Lauren named the disorientation so many women feel in their 30s — when life doesn't look the way they imagined. This week, they gently trace the story back to where it began.Before there was disappointment… there was dreaming.Lauren reminds listeners that those early dreams weren't foolish — they were sincere. They mattered. Instead of shaming the younger version of ourselves, maybe we honor her and ask what she was really longing for.In this episode, Jason and Lauren explore:Why dreaming is holy — how desire often introduces you to your design.How idealism in your 20s isn't immaturity, but momentum.The subtle shift from “I hope” to “I deserve” when we wait or feel disappointed.How timelines and unspoken expectations can quietly become measuring sticks.The internal contracts we form: “By 30 I'll be…” “My marriage will feel like…”You'll walk away with practical tools to hold vision without clinging:Separate the essence from the packaging.Surrender the timeline, not the desire.Ask who you need to become to carry the dream well.This episode is tender, grounding, and hopeful — a reminder that the dreaming phase wasn't wasted. It was forming you.Maybe your dream didn't die. Maybe it grew up.PatreonIf you've enjoyed this podcast, would you consider financially supporting the show?

Send a textA simple question from a child—why lie on the floor when the bed is right there—opens a larger conversation about surrender, pride, and the quiet strength of being conquered by truth. We share the tender origin of this practice in a mother's floorbound prayers, then follow the thread through the teachings of Jesus, the moment when people walked away from hard words, and the steadiness of those who stayed because they knew where life was found. This is a story about posture as a language: not of defeat, but of availability; not of servitude, but of servanthood; not of lack, but of alignment.Across this conversation, we unpack why embodied humility matters when life feels loud and frantic. The floor becomes a symbol and a strategy—lowering ourselves enough to hear what ego drowns out, choosing attention over activity, and letting truth live through us. Mary and Martha step into view as a map for modern attention: one running on expectations, the other sitting close, conquered by a word that reorders priorities. We explore how surrender reframes strength, why resistance masquerades as busyness, and how a daily practice of going low can tether us to meaning when storms rise.By the end, the invitation is simple and demanding: trade image for integrity, motion for listening, and the pressure to win for the freedom to be led. If you've ever felt torn between doing more and becoming more, this reflection offers language, story, and a repeatable practice to help you choose well.

From the pressure to “get it right” to the constant second-guessing, so many of us carry quiet questions in motherhood: Am I doing enough? Am I messing this up? Am I a good mom? In this episode of Carpool Conversations, Sara and Marissa sit down with author and podcast host Hallie Dye to talk honestly about the weight moms carry—and the freedom found in surrendering that weight to the One who never fails. Hallie shares the heart behind her first book, You're Still a Good Mom: Motherhood Surrendered to the One Who Never Fails, and unpacks what it really means to be “a good mom” from a biblical perspective. Together, they discuss why our limitations are by design, how surrender reshapes the way we approach our roles, and how to navigate the tension between responsibility and trust in God. Whether you're in the thick of diapers and sleepless nights or navigating new challenges with older kids, this conversation is a gentle reminder: your worth was never meant to be measured by your performance. You are still a good mom. -- Meet our guest: Hallie Dye Book: You're Still a Good Mom: Motherhood Surrendered to the One Who Never Fails Podcast: The Saltworks -- Question of the Week: What is something you enjoy and want me to keep doing as your mom/dad? -- Hosts: Sara Jones & Marissa Ray Guest: Hallie Dye Producers: Emily Alters & Cody Braun -- Learn more about WinShape Camps at WinShapeCamps.org!

What if the very thing that broke your heart is the doorway to your freedom? In this Baba Talk by Maetreyii Ma, we look directly at struggle — loss, disappointment, blocked paths, and the moments that feel unfair. Through the lens of Yoga philosophy, this teaching explores the deeper tension between karma and free will, and how what feels like hardship may actually be part of a far greater movement of love. When something you depend on is taken away, it can feel cruel. But what if that moment is grace in difficult times? What if the removal of an attachment is not punishment, but protection? What if there is divine guidance in life, even when you cannot yet see the reason? The talk invites a powerful shift: instead of collapsing into victimhood, we begin to soften into trust. Surrender to divine will is not passive resignation — it is strength rooted in awareness. It is the courage to allow life to shape you rather than harden you. Spiritual growth through suffering reveals something steady beneath the chaos — a presence within you that remains untouched. In that discovery, struggle becomes refining rather than defeating. And then the deeper question arises: who am I really? Am I the personality shaped by circumstances, or am I the deeper presence witnessing it all? In the realization of non-separation, the feeling of isolation dissolves. You begin to sense that nothing is outside the embrace of the One. When seen from this wider awareness, everything is grace — not because life is easy, but because nothing is separate from the infinite love that guides it. Live from that knowing, and even the storm becomes shelter.

When parenting feels uncertain or painful, the desire to control outcomes can quietly take over. Not because we are manipulative — but because we care deeply. In this episode of the Still Faithful series, we explore what it truly means to let go of control without letting go of love. This conversation gently separates responsibility from outcome, and invites parents into a posture of surrender that is steady rather than anxious. If you've found yourself rehearsing conversations, managing reactions, or carrying the weight of your child's choices, this episode offers reassurance: control is not the same as care — and releasing outcomes does not mean releasing love. In this episode, we explore: Why control often feels like responsibility for parents The emotional exhaustion that comes from managing outcomes The difference between surrender and withdrawal How love changes when control loosens Trusting that God is at work beyond what you can see Reflection questions: Take these slowly — there's no pressure to resolve anything today. Where am I trying to manage outcomes? What fears sit underneath my need for control? What would it look like to entrust this area fully to God? How might my posture shift if I believed God loves my child even more than I do? A practice for this week: "God, I release what I cannot control. Help me love without grasping. Help me trust without managing." Surrender is not a one-time decision. It is a posture we return to again and again. An important reminder: Letting go of control does not mean letting go of love. It means allowing love to be steady instead of anxious. Connect with Melinda: melinda@melindapatrick.org https://melindapatrick.org/
Discipline, surrender, and grace are the missing rhythm for sustainable growth. You don't have to hustle harder or control every outcome. What if growth happens when you release what you can't control, take one disciplined step, and extend yourself grace when you stumble?Scripture reminds us to trust God with all our heart (Proverbs 3:5–6), that we've been given a spirit of self-discipline (2 Timothy 1:7), and that mercy is renewed every morning (Lamentations 3:22–23).You are not behind. You are becoming.

Imagine following a friend into the unknown—every turn, every pace set by them—and realize that following Jesus asks the same unwavering trust. In this episode we wrestle with the temptation to treat Jesus like a label to wear and instead discover the transformative power of surrender: a story of love that compels us, frees us from self, and re-centers our life around the One who gave everything.

Welcome or Surrender? The Difference Between Applause and Allegiance This message is for you if: You've ever felt spiritually moved — but wondered if that's enough. You attend church but want to know what real surrender actually looks like. You're wrestling with whether Jesus is just part of your life… or truly King of it. You've confused religious activity with genuine discipleship. You want your faith to endure beyond emotion — into real, steady trust. On Palm Sunday, the crowds shouted "Hosanna." They waved branches. They laid down cloaks. But by the time Jesus entered the temple, everything was quiet. In this Gospel Daily message, Pastor Josh Weidmann walks through Mark 11:1–11 and explores a sobering question: Is it possible to welcome Jesus emotionally — and still fail to receive Him as King? This sermon examines the Triumphal Entry, the meaning of "Hosanna," the fulfillment of Zechariah 9:9, and the tension between superficial faith and lifelong surrender. Discover the difference between enthusiasm and discipleship, religious routine and true worship, and why Palm Sunday still confronts us today. If you've ever wondered what real surrender looks like — not just in worship, but in your daily life — this message will challenge and clarify what it means to follow Jesus as King. Show Notes Text: Mark 11:1–11 — The Triumphal Entry Jesus entered Jerusalem humbly, intentionally, and fully in control. The crowd welcomed Him with praise — but misunderstood His mission. It's possible to feel moved by Jesus and still miss what He truly wants. When Jesus entered the temple, the celebration gave way to silence. Sometimes the greatest danger isn't open rejection — but quiet neglect. Receiving Jesus as King is more than a moment of emotion. It's daily trust. Ongoing surrender. Steady worship. A surrendered life looks faithful in both joy and suffering. Gentle but personal question: If Jesus walked through your life today, would He find room prepared for Him? Reflection Questions Where in my life have I welcomed Jesus emotionally — but resisted surrendering control? If Jesus "surveyed" my priorities this week, what would reveal that He is truly King? What might reveal indifference? Do I follow Jesus for what I hope He will give me — or for who He truly is? What area of my schedule, relationships, finances, or ambitions have I not fully laid down before Him? What would it look like for my Monday to reflect the same devotion I express on Sunday?
Why is it so hard to choose what to do for Lent? Why do we (me included!) put so much pressure on ourselves to pick the perfect sacrifice… the one thing that will finally move the needle… the one decision that will change everything? If you're a homeschool mama who finds herself stuck in indecision, or piling on five spiritual (or non spiritual!) goals because you're afraid one won't be "enough," this episode is for you. Today, I'm talking about the hidden idol of getting it right. The subtle fear that if we choose wrong, it won't count. The quiet pressure to optimize our holiness, our motherhood, even our Lent. But what if the deeper invitation isn't about choosing the perfect sacrifice? What if it's about slowing down… noticing the common thread beneath all your goals… and learning to trust God more than you distrust yourself? In this episode, you'll learn: Why you struggle to follow through (even with good, holy goals) How to identify the deeper "why" beneath your long list of improvements The spiritual shift from striving to surrender Simple thoughts you can practice to build trust with God How presence and surrender, not perfection, draws you closer to Him Lent isn't about misery. It isn't about proving yourself. It isn't about finally becoming the flawless version of you. It's about union. Trust. Surrender. And setting down the idols that stand between you and the Lord. If you struggle with keeping Lent simple, doable, and sustainable, grab your earbuds and join me for: The Idol of Getting It Right: Lent, Homeschooling, and Trusting God.
Are we living Christ, not just preaching Him? Robert Chapman, called “the saintliest man” by Charles Spurgeon, lived a quiet yet powerful life marked by humility, love, and a deep commitment to live for Christ. He gave up personal rights, pursued unity without compromise, and served the poor and the lost with Christlike love. His life reminds us that true gospel witness flows not from fame, but from faithfully living Christ before others.

1 Cor 9 The Power of Voluntary Surrender is the topic that will be discussed today on RIOT Podcast, a Christian Discipleship Podcast. What if the greatest proof of your freedom is what you're willing to give up? You have rights. But what if love calls you to lay them down? In this week's episode, we step into 1 Corinthians 9 and wrestle with a hard question: Just because I can… does that mean I should? Paul proves he deserves support, authority, and recognition then willingly gives it all up for the sake of the gospel. Not because he has to. Because he loves. This chapter confronts our comfort. Our entitlement. Our desire to be served instead of to serve. Freedom in Christ isn't about self-expression, it's about self-sacrifice. It's choosing surrender over status. Discipline over disqualification. Gospel over ego. If you've ever struggled with letting go of your “rights”… If you've ever wondered what mature faith really looks like… This conversation will challenge you deeply. Love limits liberty. Love surrenders rights. And serious faith runs to win.

Ever feel like money has more control over you than you'd like to admit?In Week 4 of Learning to Let Go, we dive into one of Jesus' most confusing parables, and discover it's not really about money. It's about surrender.Whether you're juggling a mortgage, daycare costs, student loans, or just trying to “get ahead,” this message will help you rethink ownership, anxiety, and what real freedom actually looks like.If you're new to church or unsure about faith, this is a practical and honest conversation about trust, control, and who's really in charge of your life.Bible References: Luke 16:1–13; Luke 15:1–2; Proverbs 3:5–10

Complaining feels normal. But it costs you power. In this Hard Reset episode, Kelly Siegel breaks down how venting without action slowly trains you to see yourself as a victim instead of a creator. This episode explores radical accountability, the mirror principle, and how ownership shifts your energy, confidence, and results. If you've been complaining about things you secretly created—this conversation is your wake-up call. Key Takeaways

Most of us don't struggle with believing Jesus has power. We struggle with giving up our power. We pray — but we still build contingency plans. We call Him Lord but we still try to negotiate our terms. Control feels safe. Surrender feels foolish. But the Kingdom of Heaven does not advance through our power — it advances through our surrender. And in Matthew 8, Jesus meets a man who understands something many church-going people miss — surrender means living under His authority more than loving our authority. Surrender makes outsiders insiders.
For over a decade, Jordan Sather has stood at the front lines of the digital information war — building one of the earliest independent platforms decoding Q in real time, getting banned from nearly every major platform during the censorship purge, and continuing to investigate the deeper layers of power, influence, and corruption behind stories like Epstein, intelligence blackmail networks, Pizzagate and the battle between mainstream and alternative media. In this wide-ranging and grounded conversation, Jordan walks us through his personal awakening, the rise (and infiltration) of the Q movement, the truth and distortion surrounding the Epstein files, and the psychological traps that can derail even the most sincere truth-seekers. You will not find blind allegiance or doom-fueled paranoia here — it's a sober exploration of psyops, influence operations, and the responsibility that comes with knowing. If you care about discernment in a chaotic age, this episode is essential listening.Time Stamps (00:00) Episode Teaser (00:34) Opening Conversation (04:37) Understanding Ibogaine and Its Effects (06:25) The Healing Power of Ibogaine (25:24) The Definition of Self-Love That Was Revealed (33:35) Intergenerational Healing (40:51) Reverence vs. Worship: Understanding the Difference (42:43) Yerasimos' Ayahuasca Experience (46:27) The Role of the Medicine in Personal Development (52:54) The Supplemental Dose: Processing Emotions and Ancestral Trauma (01:00:30) Integration and the Challenges of Returning to Normal Life (01:03:09) The Relationship Between Self-Betrayal and Self-Love (01:15:20) The Importance of Intent and Reverence in Medicine Work (01:22:28) Surrender and Trust: Lessons from the Divine Realm (01:27:25) Setting Intentions and Personal Reflections (01:30:09) The Impact of Social Media and Technology (01:40:37) Voluntarism and Political Philosophy (01:43:49) Personal Growth and SpiritualityGuest Linkshttps://www.jordansather.com/ Connect with UsJoin our membership Friends of the TruthRise Above The Herd Take the Real AF Test NowDiscover Your Truth Seeker ArchetypeWatch all our episodesConnect with us on TelegramFollow us on InstagramAccess all our links
The Station of Betrayal This message begins our 6-week conversation entitled “The Stations of the Cross”. The cross is not a relic of religion but a revelation of relationship, and the Station of Betrayal reveals how deeply Jesus enters human suffering. In Gethsemane, Jesus chooses surrender, trust, and obedience, even as He is betrayed by someone close. Through the story of Judas, we see how divided loyalties, unmet expectations, and the desire for control can quietly lead us away from faithfulness. This station invites us to examine where we reach for something other than Jesus—and to remember that even in betrayal, grace is at work. Matthew 26:36-56 Discussion topics HEAD (What did you learn? What new understanding did you gain?) What does this passage teach us about the difference between proximity to Jesus and transformation by Jesus? Why is it significant that Judas betrayed Jesus with a kiss? What does that reveal about the nature of betrayal? Betrayal often begins quietly. Judas didn't walk away from Jesus all at once—he slowly stopped agreeing with Him. Where have you noticed small compromises or divided loyalties creeping into your faith? Where did you feel personally confronted when Pastor Aaron contrasted what Judas reached for versus what Jesus reached for? Judas Reached for Control. Jesus Reached for the Father's Will. Judas Reached for Results. Jesus Reached for Obedience. Judas Reached for Security. Jesus Reached for Trust. Judas Reached for Power. Jesus Reached for Surrender. Judas Reached for Transaction. Jesus Reached for Relationship. Judas Reached for Escape. Jesus Reached for Mercy. Judas Reached for a Counterfeit Crown. Jesus Reached for the Cross. Pastor Aaron said, “Judas didn't stop following Jesus overnight. He slowly stopped agreeing with Him”. Did anything in this message, or statement, expose an area where your loyalty to Jesus has been divided? How did that sit with you? HAND (What are you going to do differently this week?) Where in your life do you need to shift from reaching for control to reaching for the Father's will? What practical action can you take this week to move from proximity to Jesus toward deeper surrender and transformation?

Send a text Knowing Scripture does not equal spiritual maturity. In this episode, Chelsey breaks down one of the biggest reasons wives stay stuck: they're hearing truth but not obeying it. You'll learn why information without obedience creates self-deception, how love is the true marker of discipleship, and what it looks like to stop consuming truth and start living it — especially inside your marriage.

Message by Chris Brown on February 21, 2026. Ever feel like you just don't have enough faith, or that maybe your doubts are greater than your faith? And have you ever noticed that the storms we face in life tend to rob us of what little faith we have? Today we get an inside look at why Jesus allows chaos into our lives, and how we can then allow that to both increase our little faith and chase away our doubts.

Send a text You can quote submission, attend church, and love Jesus… and still be walking in a spirit of rebellion inside your marriage. In this episode, Chelsey teaches the difference between biblical strength and counterfeit control, and how rebellion disguises itself as independence, “discernment,” or spiritual superiority.

Feeling like the wheels are coming off your life—or the world? The Year of the Fire Horse is here, and the old paradigm is dissolving fast. For some, it feels like rock bottom. For others, a slow unraveling. This week, Lacy and Jessica unpack the collective stripping, ego deaths, and visibility fears rising to the surface—and why this acceleration is actually a portal into your most authentic self. If you've been stuck in perfectionism, burned out by optimization culture, or clear on your purpose but unable to move, this episode unpacks what's happening beneath the surface. Through the lens of TBM tools, human design, Chinese astrology, and nervous system regulation, they explain why hustle, formulas, and “matrix authenticity” won't carry you into the new paradigm—but why a more aligned, authentic approach will. This season isn't about fear. It's about releasing what no longer fits so something truer can emerge. The real question is: are you ready to stop performing and step into your true purpose?

What if the heaviness in your business isn't coming from the work itself… but from the pressure to control how it unfolds? In this episode, we explore the powerful (and often misunderstood) role of surrender in business success. For high achievers and entrepreneurs, control can feel like responsibility. Hustle can feel like safety. And pushing harder often feels like the only way forward. But what if forcing isn't the path to growth? What if flow—the kind that feels aligned, steady, and sustainable — comes from something deeper? In this episode we talk about: Why high achievers default to control—and how it's often rooted in nervous system safety The subtle difference between ambition and anxiety What surrender actually looks like in business (and what it's not) How gripping tightly can block clarity, creativity, and expansion The role of identity in moving from pressure to peace Practical ways to shift from reactive decision-making to aligned action in 2026 If you've been feeling the weight of your business lately—overwhelmed, overextended, or quietly misaligned—this conversation will help you soften your grip, regulate your nervous system, and move forward with steadiness instead of strain. Because sometimes the breakthrough isn't in pushing harder. It's in trusting deeper.
