Welcome to the Making Peace with What I Can't Control Online Bible Study (OBS) with the community at FaithGateway!
We're so glad you're here and can't wait to begin this journey with you.
This brand-new study with Lysa TerKeurst kicks off with our online community on Monday, November 16. Over the next few weeks, we'll find relief from the exhaustion of overthinking, trying to fix others, and wanting to figure it all out and encounter real, lasting
peace!
Together, and with Lysa as our guide, we'll dig deeply into Scripture to discover how to hand over to God what was always His to carry. Over six powerful video sessions, Lysa will help us:
✔Identify the core fears that fuel you to reach for control but only compound the chaos.
✔Know when you’re crossing the line from healthy responsibility to fear-based control.
✔Recognize specific tactics of the enemy that keep you in spiritual confusion.
✔Stop allowing the decisions of others to steal your peace.
✔Wrestle honestly with the Lord about hard questions like, Why aren’t you doing more to change this person or these circumstances?
Making Peace with What I Can't Control is a study you won't want to miss!
"It' s time to hand over to God what was always His to carry."
— Lysa TerKeurst
|
What if my efforts to control can’t stop my fears from coming true?
|
We've all faced this fear at some point, haven't we?
In Making Peace With What I Can’t Control, Lysa TerKeurst walks alongside you with vulnerability, biblical depth, and hard-won wisdom from someone who has seen some of her worst fears come to fruition—and has made it to the other side.
Drawing from her own experiences of navigating divorce, a breast cancer diagnosis, and watching loved ones make painful choices, Lysa shows how to surrender our fears and life circumstances over to God and be filled with peace that passes all human understanding (Philippians 4:7).

It is possible to live with less fear, worry, and anxiety.

(1) Making Peace with What I Can't Control hardcover book - JUST released! The companion book to the study: In Making Peace with What I Can't Control: Find Relief from the Exhaustion of Overthinking, Trying to Fix Others, and Wanting to Figure It All Out, Lysa addresses the tension so many of us live in, where it seems like the Lord isn't paying attention and the only reasonable option is to take matters into our own hands.
She shows us how to:
✔️Identify the core fears that fuel us to reach for control but only compound the chaos.
✔️Know when we're crossing the line from healthy responsibility into the dangerous territory of fear-driven control.
✔️Recognize specific tactics of the enemy that keep us in spiritual confusion (about God), fueled by emotional exhaustion (from the relentlessness of life).
✔️Stop allowing the decisions of others to rob our peace by learning what to do when we feel tempted to inappropriately intervene, rescue, or control the narrative.
✔️Wrestle honestly with the Lord about hard questions like, Why aren't You doing more to change this person or these circumstances? and I didn't see You do it then, so how do I know You'll do it now?
(1) Come Close to Jesus Devotional - The perfect devotional companion for your study on surrendering control to Jesus!
Jesus longs for you to come close. Not just for answers or blessings, but to experience His peace—because He is the only one who can calm us, strengthen us, and give us the perspective we need.
Join Lysa TerKeurst as she shares powerful prayers, devotional teachings, and practical ways to draw near to the Lord.
Come Close to Jesus is filled with prewritten prayers to help still your thoughts, calm your heart, and find guidance in times of need—but most important, to help you spend time with the Savior who loves you more than you can imagine. Whether you struggle with getting distracted during your quiet time, finding the “right” words to say, or bringing your honest thoughts to the Lord, this book was created specifically to help you connect with Him on a deeper level.
Through these pages, Lysa shares her personal journey in growing her prayer life both through seeking the Lord diligently and walking through hard seasons with Him. In Come Close to Jesus, you’ll receive:
✔️Lysa’s reflections and devotional teachings on prayer
Her own guided prayers for you to follow
✔️Scriptural prayers for specific relationships and situations
✔️Bible verses to teach and encourage you
✔️“Prayer in Action” steps to help you pray and incorporate this wisdom into your daily life
