Letting God Take The Reins: Why Meekness Is Not Weakness

Hey! I'd love to hear your thoughts, send me a voice note.

“Blessed are the meek” may be one of Jesus Christ’s most misunderstood teachings. Meekness is not timidity, silence, or allowing others to control us—it is strength that has become responsive to God. In this episode, Scott and Deb explore the Hebrew meaning behind meekness, its connection to Psalm 37 and Step Three of recovery, and the difference between surrendering our will and becoming passive. Through honest reflections on pride, anger, control, relationships, and horse training, they consider what changes when we stop trying to force every outcome and trust that the care of God is safer than our control.
