Dean's Chapel 2024-2025 - Lori Camiolo - Surrender

In “Surrender,” Lori Camiolo offers students and staff a heartfelt invitation to let go of control and trust God fully. With gentle honesty, she speaks to the tension between holding on and laying things down—reminding listeners that surrender isn’t weakness, but the starting point of transformation. Drawing from Jesus’ words in Luke 9:23, “If anyone would come after me, let him deny himself and take up his cross daily,” the message challenges the campus community to follow Christ not just in belief, but in daily obedience. True freedom, she reminds us, begins when we give Him everything.
