On this episode of This vs. That, we sit down with Eric Schumacher to explore the profound concept of weakness in Christian life. We discuss how recognizing our limitations and dependence on God&#39;s grace can lead to greater freedom and spiritual growth. Eric shares personal insights from his latest book, addressing the paradox of working diligently while maintaining complete reliance on God&#39;s strength.We examine how understanding our weakness doesn&#39;t eliminate it, but rather transforms our perspective on dependence, grief, and human limitations.
