Episode Title: S3E4 | The Cost of Surrender with Ashtyn Washington
INTRODUCTION:
On this Good Friday, we pause to reflect on the weight of what Jesus did. Not just His suffering, but His surrender.
In a world where strength looks like resistance, Jesus showed us a different kind of power: the kind that lays itself down in obedience to the Father’s will.
In this episode, we walk through Jesus’ journey from the Garden of Gethsemane to Golgotha, and what it truly means that He chose the cross. We’ll unpack the significance of His words, “Not my will, but Yours be done,” and how His surrender became the pathway to our salvation.
If you wrestle with surrender in your own life — letting go of control, trusting God in uncertainty — this conversation will meet you right where you are.
