We may know the hymn I Surrender All and proudly sing it in church on Sunday. But do we really want to surrender all, or are there areas of our lives we are hesitant to release to God?
Michelle Lazurek knows what it’s like to want to experience full surrender as God intended, but be unsure how to start. She’s on the show helping us:
▫️Identify areas of struggle in surrendering to God
▫️Utilize practical tips and strategies to incorporate surrender into our everyday lives
▫️Learn how to trust God with every area of our lives
▫️Practically live out the truths in Scripture
Join us to discuss how to lay down every area of your life, in order to watch God do the impossible.
