The Shame We Carry with Alexa | EP 53

A Slave For Christ | Ep 54

In this episode of Full Surrender, we explore Colossians 1:24–29 and Colossians 2:1–4, uncovering what it truly means to suffer, labor, and remain faithful for the sake of Christ. Paul’s life was marked by sacrifice, endurance, and a deep burden to see believers mature in their faith. Though many would have considered his life foolish because of his suffering, imprisonment, and devotion to the Gospel, Paul understood that true wisdom is found in Christ alone This episode is a reminder that following Jesus will not always make sense to the world, but our calling is not to be approved by people — it is to be faithful to Christ.

The Shame We Carry with Alexa | EP 53

Hi guys!!! In this episode, I sat down with my friend Alexa for a real and honest conversation at a time when I wasn’t feeling my best emotionally. I’m really grateful to have a community where conversations like this can exist—open, reflective, and grounded in growth. We talk about the experience of shame from different angles: the ways we may have unintentionally caused it in others, and the ways it has been placed on us. This discussion is inspired by insights from the book The Soul of Shame by Curt Thompson, which explores how shame shapes our stories, our relationships, and our sense of self. This isn’t about having all the answers—it’s about creating space for awareness, accountability, and healing. If you’ve ever wrestled with feelings of shame or wondered how it shows up in your life, this conversation might resonate with you. Thanks for being here and for being part of a community that values honesty and growth. #christianpodcast Support the show [https://www.buzzsprout.com/2437881/support]

Go and Make Disciples | Ep 52

Hi friends! Welcome back to another episode of Full Surrender Podcast!  Honesty guys… I haven’t recorded in almost two weeks because I’ve been trying to navigate a really tough season. Life has a way of bringing unexpected moments of grief, pain, and heaviness, and we all process those seasons differently. Some days it feels easy to keep moving, and other days it feels hard to even show up. But one thing I’m learning is that even in the middle of grief, the Lord is still present. He meets us in our weakness, comforts us in our pain, and gives us strength when we feel like we have none left. My friend Alexa came to support me while I recorded this episode, and I’m so grateful for her because if I’m being honest, I truly did not want to record today. Sometimes having people around you who encourage you and remind you to keep going is such a gift. Their presence can be one of the ways God shows His love and faithfulness in difficult seasons. On today’s episode, we’re talking about Matthew 28:19 and the Great Commission. Even in seasons where life feels heavy, God still calls us to go, make disciples, and share His truth with the world. We’ll dive into what it means to carry out this calling, how obedience looks in everyday life, and why the mission of Jesus still matters so deeply today. If you’ve been feeling weary, discouraged, or unsure of your purpose, I pray this episode reminds you that God can still use you even in the middle of hard seasons.

Forgiven to Forgive | EP 51

Hi guys, welcome back to Full Surrender Podcast❤️ Today we are taking about something that often gets avoided…forgiveness. Not the surface-level kind, but the kind that challenges your heart, your pride, and your willingness to truly forgive from the heart. Forgiveness isn’t optional. The same mercy we ask God for is the mercy we’re called to give. And in Matthew 18, through the parable of the unforgiving servant, we see what happens when we receive grace but refuse to extend it. In this episode, we’re getting real about: – How pride, hurt, and offense block your healing – What it actually means to forgive from the heart – And how remembering what God has forgiven you of changes everything This isn’t about excusing what happened to you but it’s about freeing yourself from what’s been holding you hostage. Let’s surrender our right to hold onto hurt and step into the freedom that comes with forgiveness. #christianpodcast Support the show [https://www.buzzsprout.com/2437881/support]

Burdened For the Lost | Ep 47

Hi guys welcome back to the Full Surrender Podcast!!! In today’s episode, we’re diving into Matthew 9:35–38 — the moment when Jesus looks at the crowds and is moved with compassion, like sheep without a shepherd. Then He says something that still confronts us today: “The harvest is plentiful, but the workers are few.”  We talk about what it really means to see people the way Jesus sees them. Before there was a command to go, there was compassion. There was a heart that broke for the lost. Are we moved? Or are we just busy? Are we praying for revival but unwilling to be the answer to the prayer? This episode challenges us to examine: •Why the harvest is ready but laborers are scarce •The difference between admiration of Jesus and obedience to Jesus •How comfort, distraction, and fear keep us from the fields •What it means to pray for workers — and become one Jesus didn’t say the harvest might be plentiful. He said it is. The question isn’t whether there’s work to be done — it’s whether we’re willing to surrender and pray. If this episode convicts you, stretches you, or encourages you, share it with someone who needs the reminder that we are called — not just to sit, but to go. Let’s surrender comfort. Let’s surrender fear. Let’s surrender excuses. Support the show [https://www.buzzsprout.com/2437881/support]
