The Trap of Self-Reliance

July 19, 2022

Fruitfulness leads to the Joy we are looking for. Productivity does not.

Hey everybody!! We are living in times of countless self-help books, proud independence, and accomplishing as much as we can (as quickly as we can). The world is preaching productivity, but “self-reliance” comes with the FALSE PROMISE of control that ultimately leaves us weary and restless.

In this episode listen to Victor and I talk about:

  • Letting go of the steering wheel
  • Productivity vs. Fruitfulness
  • Abiding in God in order to depend on God
  • The Holy Spirit demanding hugs
