Declaration of Dependence

Jun 29, 2025    Pastor Reid McAteer

In this powerful message, we're challenged to reconsider our understanding of true life, liberty, and happiness through a spiritual lens. The central theme revolves around declaring our dependence on God, rather than pursuing independence. We're reminded that real life isn't just about physical existence, but a deep connection with our Creator. The message draws from John 14:6, emphasizing Jesus as 'the way, the truth, and the life.' This profound truth invites us to reflect on where we're seeking fulfillment. Are we chasing after worldly success and temporary happiness, or are we pursuing the eternal joy that comes from a relationship with Christ? The sermon encourages us to fill our spiritual 'wells' with godly things, so that when life's challenges come, we draw strength from our faith. This perspective shift can transform how we face difficulties, reminding us that true freedom and contentment come from surrendering to God's will, not from our circumstances.
