Most Christians know Jesus as Savior. Few truly surrender to Him as Lord.

Steve Prince spent years believing in Christ while still living on his own terms. It wasn't until he confronted decades of unresolved pain over his father's suicide—and chose biblical forgiveness—that everything changed. This conversation is a powerful reminder that healing isn't found in simply knowing Scripture, but in obeying it.

In this episode, you'll discover:

• Understand the life-changing difference between accepting Jesus as Savior and making Him Lord of your life.

• Learn how unforgiveness toward his father silently affected Steve's marriage, ministry, and purpose for more than 25 years—and the moment that finally brought freedom.

• Discover why Warrior Set Free approaches healing differently by helping veterans and first responders apply God's Word instead of only hearing it.

• Recognize how military service, spiritual warfare, and biblical discipleship intersect to create lasting transformation.
