When life feels uncertain, control can feel safer than surrender.
In this message from the Seasons: From Here to There series, we explore what it looks like to follow Jesus when the pressure to control outcomes is strong. Drawing from James 4–5, we’re reminded that our lives are fragile, our plans are limited, and true wisdom is found not in self-reliance but in trusting God’s will.
This teaching challenges the belief that control produces peace and invites us into a posture of humility—planning with God instead of apart from Him. Through Scripture and practical rhythms like prayer, fasting, and godly counsel, we discover that surrender isn’t weakness—it’s the doorway to freedom.
Wherever you’re feeling pressure to manage everything on your own, this message invites a better way forward: trusting Jesus in the uncertainty.
