God has not given us control but He’s given us something better. Especially around the holidays when relationships are strained, our bodies refuse to cooperate and the future is uncertain, control promises security and peace. If only we could put that on our Christmas lists to find wrapped up underneath the tree. But in reality, the more we grasp for the illusion of control, the more it betrays us.

Sharon Hodde Miller will help you replace your anxiety with peace and find unity amidst division. The answer is not just to “let go and let God.” This episode has practical tools for recognizing how your desire to control plays out, what it costs you and how you can find some self-control, even on social media.
