In this episode Jairus Matthew Copeland unpacks the powerful distinction between delivery and surrender. While delivery asks to be pulled out of a difficult situation, surrender invites us to release the need for control and trust the process. Jairus explores how clinging to control often leaves us compromised, anxious, and stuck—and how surrendering what we can’t change can open the door to peace, perspective, and trust.

Whether from a faith-based lens or simply as a practice of letting go, this conversation challenges us to reevaluate where we’re striving to manipulate outcomes versus where we might benefit from releasing them. Jairus shares personal insights, practical examples, and a framework for recognizing when surrender—not more effort—is the healthiest path forward.
