Overcoming Self-sufficiency
December 31/January 1, 2023
Drake Farmer, Exec Pastor of Ministries

Independent versus Codependent versus Interdependent
· Independent: I don’t need anyone
· Codependent: I need others for all my needs
· Interdependent: We need each other

1. Self-Sufficiency robs us and others of the joy of giving
· … a fragrant offering, an acceptable sacrifice, pleasing to God. (Philippians 4:18 CSB)

2. Self-Sufficiency robs God of His due worship
· And my God will supply all your needs according to his riches in glory in Christ Jesus. Now to our God and Father be glory forever and ever. Amen.(Philippians 4:19-20 CSB)

3. Self-Sufficiency robs us of God
