Episode Description
In this message, Pastor Bo reminds us that there is real, tangible power in a life fully surrendered to God and His Holy Spirit. Just like pushing a Harley is exhausting until the engine turns over, living in our own strength is hard—but when the anointing takes over, the journey becomes effortless.

He then challenges us with a sobering choice: fall on the Rock (Jesus) and be broken, or wait for the rock of life’s pressures to fall on you and crush you. Sometimes God allows a breaking that brings us closer to Him—much like the shepherd who breaks a stubborn sheep’s legs only to carry it, feed it, and restore it until it learns to stay nearby.
This message isn’t aimed at unbelievers—it’s for Christians who still want to run their own lives. Instead of asking God to bless what we’re doing, Pastor Bo urges us to ask, “What is the Lord doing—and how can I join Him?” Because Jesus is either Lord of all, or not Lord at all.
