Episode Details

Why do we chase a fierce independence that only leaves us anxious and alone? Matthew 6 exposes how our frantic self-sufficiency forces us to live like spiritual orphans. In this message, Pastor Philip Miller demolishes our illusion of absolute autonomy by offering a better way: childlike trust. Without it, we end up like a fish gasping on land.

This is part three of the sermon, "Our Daily Bread."
