All In: Living a Life Fully Surrendered to God

Aug 24, 2025    Pastor Alli Booth

This powerful message challenges us to explore the true meaning of surrender in our spiritual lives. It reminds us that belief alone isn't enough – we must be willing to give EVERYTHING to God. The story of the rich young ruler in Mark's Gospel serves as a poignant illustration of how our attachments can hinder our relationship with God. We're encouraged to examine what we're holding onto so tightly that it prevents us from fully surrendering to God's will.


The message beautifully compares surrender to open-handed worship, symbolizing our readiness to receive from God. It emphasizes that surrender is a daily choice, not a one-time event, requiring us to continually trust God with every aspect of our lives. This teaching invites us to reflect on who or what sits on the throne of our hearts, urging us to place God at the center and live with open hands, trusting Him fully.
