In this episode of the CityLight Church Podcast, Pastor Bo explores a powerful biblical paradox: the pathway to God’s strength begins with acknowledging our weakness. Drawing from the lives of Moses, Jacob, Paul, and others, he shows how self-sufficiency can become one of the greatest obstacles to experiencing God’s power, while humility and dependence position believers for breakthrough. Through practical teaching, personal stories, and Scripture, Pastor Bo encourages listeners to stop hiding their weaknesses, bring their needs honestly before God, and discover the freedom that comes from relying on His grace rather than their own strength.
