## Resource

What if the thing you say you need is actually the very thing controlling you? In this episode, we unpack how innocent desires can quietly turn into demands, and how those demands can pull us away from trust in God. Through a powerful look at Scripture and a compelling parallel to Gollum’s obsession in The Lord of the Rings, this conversation challenges you to loosen your grip, realign your heart, and rediscover the freedom that comes from trusting God to provide what you truly need.
