Zac Poonen · Sep 19, 2022 · 47m

How God Led Me In My Life (My Testimony) - Zac Poonen
Zac Poonen · Nov 30, 2021 · 1h 7m
The speaker emphasizes that true discipleship requires embracing the identity of an ordinary person, mirroring Jesus who claimed to be merely a man. He draws from scripture to teach that while the Holy Spirit reveals deep truths about Christ, the core lesson is humility, as Jesus always humbled himself and did not assert his own will.
