What if self-control isn't about trying harder?

We treat self-control like a wall we build with willpower, brick by brick. But Scripture tells a different story. That it is a fruit of the Holy Spirit, not a trophy for the disciplined. Self-Control: Freedom in Surrender gathers testimonies from writers who learned this the hard way. Each chapter shows what it actually looks like to trade self-effort for dependence on God. Inside, you'll find stories that teach:

• Surrender Over Striving: How self-control stops being a fight against yourself once you stop trying to earn God's approval and start resting in it.
• Learning to Pause: Why slowing down, listening to your body, and trusting God with what you can't control is its own form of discipline.
• Practice, Not Perfect: How failure and repentance, not flawless restraint, are what actually build self-control over a lifetime.
• Strength Under the Spirit: What it means to stop managing outcomes and start letting the Holy Spirit lead your response, moment by moment.

With chapters written by Dr. Tyann Beenken, DPT, Ariel Leigh, Elizabeth Clark, Warren L. Henderson, Jr., Carol Nankivel, Kaitlyn Minze, Francesca Follone-Montgomery, ofs, and Teri-Lou Uvodich, Self-Control: Freedom in Surrender is the final part of the Fruits of the Spirit Collaborative Book Series, dedicated to featuring stories that bring Galatians 5:22-23 to life.

This isn't a book about restriction. It's a book about freedom, the kind that comes when you finally stop white-knuckling your way through life and let the Spirit take the wheel.
