Our culture is obsessed with self-help, believing that if you try harder, manifest more, or believe in yourself enough, you’ll find confidence, growth, and success. But Scripture shows us a different way.
In this episode, Sam unpacks why self-help is no help at all, and why self-sacrifice, through humility and obedience, is the way of Christ. The Christian life is about emptying ourselves so that we can be filled with the Holy Spirit, who equips us to walk in God’s strength instead of our own.
You’ll learn what it looks like to surrender your marriage, family, career, and success to God’s hands, and be challenged to reflect on the parts of your heart that need to be laid down at the cross.
Key Scriptures:
•Luke 9:23 — “Whoever wants to be my disciple must deny themselves and take up their cross daily and follow me.”
•Philippians 2:3–7 — “Christ Jesus… made himself nothing by taking the very nature of a servant.”
🎧 Listen now and be reminded: strength and courage don’t come from self-help, but from God being with us wherever we go.
