Summary

In this episode of In Totality, I share how stepping away from podcasting exposed where my trust in the Lord actually was… and where my pride had been hiding. I had to confront the uncomfortable reality that I was leaning more on my own strength than on God’s strength.

Through fasting and prayer, seeking His face daily, and surrendering to His way, I learned that faith isn’t just believing in God—it’s trusting Him completely, with everything, even when it's hard to do.

If you’ve ever struggled with self-reliance, or the fear of letting go of control, this episode is for you!
