The Illusion of Autonomy
Our lead pastor, Donnie Williams teaches through the internal struggle of self-control, emphasizing that our greatest enemy often lies within ourselves. He highlighted that personal autonomy, while appealing, is not biblical, as God created us to rely on Him and one another. The sermon used the story of Daniel to illustrate how true freedom comes from dependence on God, despite being surrounded by a captivating culture.
