We have a God who isn’t merely interested in our obedience, our God is interested in our hearts. What would it look like to surrender moment by moment to God? Would our hearts remain the same? Join us as Pastor Ian dives into the phrase, “God is my co-pilot,” and how we are called to surrender the wheel.bridge.tv/sermonsTo support this ministry and help us continue our God given mission, click here: http://bit.ly/2NZkdrC Support the show
