Are you truly depending on Jesus for your strength and growth, or are you quietly relying on your own effort, working harder, pushing through, and hoping He notices?

Janet Aucoin welcomes her daughter-in-law Noelle Aucoin, who shares vulnerably from two years of unexpected physical limitations and how God used them to teach her about self-sufficiency’s quiet grip. Together they explore three facets of dependence: being in relationship with Christ, trusting Him for sanctification, and praying for His glory. Their discussion is anchored in Ephesians 3:14–21 and D.A. Carson’s sermon, Praying for Power. True surrender isn’t passive; it’s clinging to God’s promise that all good things find their yes in Him.
