You Are Not Enough & That's The Good News
Manage episode 514180988 series 3481872
In this powerful episode of the Men After God podcast, host Luke Sorensen challenges the popular cultural mantra that “you are enough.” Luke reminds listeners that true strength and identity are not found in self-confidence, but in Christ-dependence.
Through honest conversation and Scripture-centered teaching, he explores why acknowledging our insufficiency is the first step toward spiritual maturity. Luke reveals how God uses weakness to shape character, deepen faith, and draw men closer to Himself. He also offers practical reflection questions to help listeners identify areas where they’ve been relying on self rather than on the Savior.
If you’ve ever felt the pressure to “measure up,” this episode offers biblical clarity, comfort, and challenge — reminding every man that you were never meant to be enough on your own… because Christ already is.
