Zac Poonen · May 7, 2020 · 46m
The speaker discusses Jesus' use of parables, noting that understanding the mysteries of the kingdom of heaven is a gift granted by God, not something achievable through mere intelligence.

Zac Poonen · May 5, 2020 · 1h 6m
The central message emphasizes that Christians must strive for perfection, specifically by loving enemies, doing good to those who hate them, and praying for persecutors, as commanded by Jesus.

Letting God's Word Discern our Hearts - Olu Talabi - April 26, 2020
Olu Talabi · Apr 29, 2020 · 17m
The central message is that God's Word is a powerful, living, and active discerner capable of revealing the true thoughts and intents of our hearts. To truly hear God's Word, we must approach it with humility and an open agenda, seeking to know the Lord Jesus. Because the heart is deceitful, we must pray for the Word to pierce through our self-deceptions and expose the true state of our condition, as God looks at the heart, not just outward actions.

The central message is that true manhood and discipleship are modeled after Jesus Christ, not worldly standards.

The speaker urges self-examination, drawing parallels from the Parable of the Pharisee and the Prodigal Son to warn against hypocrisy and self-serving religion. He emphasizes that true devotion to Jesus requires a costly, private love, exemplified by Mary anointing Jesus' feet, rather than seeking public recognition or material gain.

Annie Poonen · Apr 17, 2020 · 51m
The speaker uses the analogy of finding a bag of pebbles versus precious stones to illustrate that difficult times, like isolation or scarcity, conceal immense blessings. Just as the boy threw away valuable gems, we must be careful not to waste the spiritual gifts and lessons God provides during challenging seasons.
