If we want to follow God’s plan for our lives, we need to let go of our expectations and our resistance to change. In this episode, Dot and Cara reflect on one of the biggest lessons they’re learning in this season: the principle of letting go. They open up about the ways God is teaching them and share words of encouragement for anyone else who is struggling with difficult changes. Grab your Bible and a journal and listen in on the conversation!
