In today’s episode, Brenton and Chris dive into the difficult but essential topic of surrender and submission in the Christian life, exploring why trusting God and earthly authority can feel so challenging. They discuss how pride, control, past wounds, and a low view of eternity often keep believers from fully surrendering to Christ and embracing the centrality of the cross. The conversation also examines how some churches subtly drift away from a gospel-centered focus by emphasizing self-improvement over the transforming power of Jesus’ sacrifice. Chris offers practical insight into spiritual growth, church leadership, trust, and why true sanctification goes deeper than simply managing outward behavior. The episode closes with an honest and encouraging discussion about the importance of community, shepherding, and faithfully investing in the local church.
