    How to Make Peace with What You Can’t Control (Part 1 of 2)

    Date: Sep 15, 2026

    Guests: Lysa TerKeurst

    You may not think of yourself as controlling. You’re just trying to protect the people you love and keep things from falling apart! Lysa TerKeurst reveals how fear can quietly drive our need for control, but how trusting God with the things we can’t fix can bring freedom and peace. You can’t control every outcome…but you can trust the One who can.
