THE LIE OF CONTROL | BRIAN BLUM - New Life Wayland

What this episode covers

What in your life do you believe you control when you really don't? You'll discover three powerful truths from Ecclesiastes 9 that shatter the illusion of control and reveal how to live fully present in the life God has given you right now. You can expect to learn the difference between worrying about what you can't control and taking action on what you can, and how surrendering control to Jesus is actually the path to true strength and peace. Through the lens of Palm Sunday and Jesus's final week, you'll be challenged to stop postponing joy and start embracing the gift of today.Passages in this message:Ecclesiastes 9:2-12Subscribe to stay updated with the latest content from New Life!TAKE YOUR NEXT STEP HERE:Newlifewayland.org/connectJOIN THE MOVEMENT:New Life Wayland160 Pine Street Wayland, MI 49348You can support the ministry happening at New Life at newlifewayland.org/give#nlmovement #waylandmi
