What if your breakthrough depends on your willingness to give up control?

In this raw and powerful episode of Rooted & Recovered, Dan and Justin unpack Step Three of the 12-Step Program: “We made a decision to turn our will and our lives over to the care of God.”

This episode will hit home for anyone who’s tired of trying to fix themselves, who feels worn out from pretending to let go, and who’s desperate for real peace. Dan and Justin bring scripture, personal stories, and deep spiritual truth to life as they challenge listeners to stop driving from the passenger seat and surrender—truly surrender—to the One who never fails.

Key Highlights:

• Surrender isn’t weakness—it’s where true strength begins
• Proverbs 14:12 warns us about the trap of our way
• Jesus’ prayer in the Garden of Gethsemane (“Not my will, but Yours”) is the ultimate model of surrender
• You weren’t meant to carry what Jesus already surrendered for
• Peace isn’t found in control—it’s found in trust

Scriptures Covered: Proverbs 14:12, Matthew 16:24–25, Luke 22 (Gethsemane), Proverbs 3:5–6, Matthew 11:28–30

Final Truth:
Surrender isn’t the end of your story—it’s the beginning of your healing. The same God who strengthened Jesus in the garden is with you right now in your Gethsemane moment.

Please like, share, and pray for this episode to reach the right hearts. Recovery isn’t about perfection—it’s about progress, and surrender is the step that changes everything.
