August 3 | Daily Devotion | Repentance Is The Mark Of Being Truly Born Again | Zac Poonen
Zac Poonen · 10m · CFC Daily Devotions
Repentance is the defining mark of a truly born-again Christian. Without genuine repentance—a turning away from sin with changed behavior—one's claim to conversion is hollow and superficial.

New-Covenant Fasting - Zac Poonen
Zac Poonen · Sep 15, 2025 · 20m
Jesus taught that when fasting, the focus should be on the inner attitude and motive, not the external action, unlike the old covenant. Fasting is presented as a response to a deep burden for God's name to be glorified, but it is also a valuable discipline that helps free us from the slavery of food and builds self-control. Ultimately, the ability to fast and pray effectively is linked to having sufficient faith, as demonstrated by Jesus's power over the demons in Matthew 17.

The speaker emphasizes that failure, disappointment, and loss are powerful catalysts for drawing one closer to the Lord, citing the Prodigal Son as an example.

Wisdom Is More Than Knowledge | ಜ್ಞಾನವು ತಿಳುವಳಿಕೆಗಿಂತ ಹೆಚ್ಚಿನದು | Zac Poonen | Kannada
Zac Poonen · Dec 31, 2024 · 1h 4m
The sermon emphasizes that divine wisdom is superior to mere knowledge or understanding, drawing parallels between building a house and filling it with furniture. True wisdom, exemplified by the tax collector in the parable, comes from recognizing one's spiritual poverty and relying entirely on God's grace rather than self-effort or accumulated knowledge. The speaker urges the congregation to prioritize seeking wisdom over accumulating knowledge, as pride in one's own understanding can be dangerous.

Zac Poonen · Nov 27, 2024 · 55m
The sermon emphasizes that true devotion to God stems from loving Him with all your heart, which is the primary condition for receiving God's promises.

The speaker addresses the apparent contradiction between God's omniscience and human free will, using analogies to explain that human logic cannot fully grasp God's nature. He explains that God foresees our choices—like watching a video replay—but does not interfere with our free will.

Q&A_1.What does it mean to be in fellowship with God? - Sunil Poonen
Sunil Poonen · Nov 21, 2024 · 6m
True fellowship with God is best understood as a constant, unbroken connection, like electricity or a Wi-Fi signal. Sin or idolizing anything else acts like a disruption that cuts this connection, making us desperate to restore it. The focus should not be on merely conquering sin, but on maintaining the desire for constant fellowship with the Father, which is restored through repentance.
