About this listen
Surrender our independence? The idea runs counter to a culture that celebrates individuality. Yet, discipleship demands a life of surrender. This book works to resolve this tension, offering practical instruction to help us on your discipleship journey. Believers who apply the principles in this book to their daily lives will experience true Christian growth as they come to realize that independence is overrated.

Maintaining a balanced rhythm in life is more than filling a calendar with activities. Rhythm isn’t about doing more things; rhythm is about doing the right things.
