Waterstone Church Sermon Podcast

Most of us treat God’s will like a high-wire act where one "wrong" choice means a total freefall into failure. But Proverbs 3:5-6 invites us to trade that high-stakes anxiety for a wide-open path—one where we stop leaning on our own frantic intuition and start trusting God who isn’t just watching our steps, but clearing the way. If you’re exhausted from overthinking every move, come find the freedom of a God who is big enough to handle your stumbles and faithful enough to guide your direction.TRANSCRIPTDISCUSSION GUIDE
