Show Main Idea: Self-reliance is the self-deceiving and isolating process of trying to be stronger and stronger while resisting the help of other people, especially help from the Lord. It is a sinful desire to build a lifestyle and reputation that releases a person from trusting God. The self-reliant person lives in a fantasy world. It is not real-world because it is an impossible feat to achieve. In this webinar, Rick presents the self-reliant worship structure, dismantles it, and provides a practical gospel-centered solution that teaches you how to rely on God.
