What happens when you realize you are subject to, not central in, your own life? In this episode of When You Look, Mick shares the life-changing revelation that completely transformed his faith, prayer life, and perspective on God’s position in his life. Prompted by a sermon by Matt Chandler, Mick explains how God reshaped his understanding of identity, obedience, and surrender. This is a story about moving from God as my co-pilot to placing Him fully at the controls.
👉 This episode unpacks:
• How a single sentence from a sermon led to a revelation
• Why “God is my co-pilot” can be deceptive
• The shift from asking God for things to praying “Your will be done”
• How Ephesians 2:10 reframed his prayers
If you’ve ever wrestled with control, identity, or obedience in your walk with Christ, this conversation will inspire you to let go and truly let God lead.
📖 Key Verse: Ephesians 2:10 — “We are God’s handiwork, created in Christ Jesus to do good works, which God prepared in advance for us to do.”
