Heather interviews author and speaker, Abby McDonald about her new book, "Surrendering Certainty: Hearing God Today By Letting Go of Tomorrow." Abby and Heather talk about how we can hear and receive direction from God even if we're not sure how things will work out. They talk about the challenge of wanting to know the future and Abby reminds listeners that we were never intended to carry that kind of knowledge. They also discuss why it's so hard to hear the voice of the Lord when we have thousands of other voices shouting at us from every direction. If you've ever felt overwhelmed with fear about making a decision or if you doubt, second-guess, and question whether or not that's God's voice you are hearing--this episode is for you.
