Do you ever struggle with control? And do you sometimes feel like taking control is noble and right? Do you think, "If I don't do something here, the whole world is going to come unhinged!"
If that's you, I can totally relate. But I can also relate, if you're feeling like your inner Control Girl has caused you to look back with some regret and heartache.
We have Kelly Needham back today, to talk about "The Desire to Control my Husband", but I want to add right at the top, that this desire can be a problem also for women who don't have a husband. So if you're not married, this episode is still for you.

Control Girls of the Bible
As I studied these women of the Bible, I realized that they were all doing what I try to do: They were trying to grab for or hold onto control, based on her small-minded perspective—and she was making everyone miserable. Want to discover what lessons I learned about control, about myself, and about God?
Ultimately that study became my Bible study, Control Girl: Lessons on Surrendering Your Burden of Control from Seven Women in the Bible.
I'd love for you to join me for this nine-week study.
