Eps 52: How Do You Let God Be the Hero of Your Story? (ft. Morgan Kruger)

In this episode of Kept Podcast, Tierra sits down with Morgan Kruger to talk about what it truly means to surrender to God and allow Him to be the hero of your story. Many believers carry shame that quietly shapes how they relate to God—causing them to strive, hide, or resist fully surrendering. But Scripture reveals a different way. In John 16:33, Jesus reminds us that although we will face trouble in this world, we can have peace because He has already overcome it. In this conversation, we explore how releasing control, confronting shame, and trusting God’s role in our story opens the door for healing, freedom, and lasting peace. In this episode we discuss: • Why God—not us—is meant to be the hero of our story • How shame can hinder surrender and spiritual growth • What John 16:33 teaches about trouble, peace, and victory in Christ • Practical, biblical ways to surrender to God • How God brings healing when we release control Surrender is not about losing—it’s about trusting the One who has already overcome. When we let go of striving and allow God to lead, we begin to experience the peace and freedom that only He can give. If you’ve struggled with shame, control, or trusting God in difficult seasons, this episode will encourage you to rest in His finished work and walk in the peace He promises.
