What's Holding You Back from Fully Trusting God? | A Surrendered Life What's holding you back from fully trusting God?
In this message, A Surrendered Life, Pastor Rich explores the story of the rich young ruler in Luke 18:18–27 and reveals that Jesus wasn't asking him to give up his possessions—He was inviting him to surrender his heart.
Many people want God's blessings, forgiveness, and help, but Jesus asks a deeper question:
"Will you surrender control of your life to Me?"
Through memorable illustrations and practical biblical teaching, discover why salvation cannot be earned, why Jesus desires a relationship instead of religion, and how true freedom begins when we place our complete trust in Him.
