Good And Bad Curiosity - Charles Banna
Charles Banna · Mar 15, 2019 · 41m
The speaker distinguishes between 'good' and 'bad' curiosity, using historical examples like scientific inventions and biblical narratives to illustrate the difference. Good curiosity, such as Abraham's questions or Moses observing the burning bush, leads to blessings and divine revelation. Conversely, bad curiosity can lead people into trouble. The discussion highlights how questioning, like Nicodemus's questions to Jesus, is vital for understanding profound spiritual truths.

A Tale of Two Cities - Santosh Poonen - March 10, 2019
Santosh Poonen · Mar 11, 2019 · 43m
The central message emphasizes that true knowledge of God is a divine gift received personally, not something taught or transferred. The speaker urges listeners who feel distant from God to not give up, assuring them that God is near the brokenhearted. He stresses that genuine faith requires an inner surrender and brokenness, comparing this to falling on the stone rather than being crushed by it, and applies this principle to marriage, family, and the church.

Who Can Build the Body of Christ: 7: One Whose Faith Works by Love - Zac Poonen - May 24, 2014
Zac Poonen · Mar 10, 2019 · 58m
The central message emphasizes that true faith must be demonstrated through love, citing Galatians 5:6. The speaker contrasts mere intellectual belief with a faith that actively changes one's life, noting that arguing about doctrines does not equate to genuine spiritual life. He also addresses the ministry of women, affirming their vital role in raising the next generation, while also discussing leadership roles in the home and church.

Who Can Build the Body of Christ: 5: One Who Values Fellowship with God - Zac Poonen - May 24, 2014
Zac Poonen · Mar 9, 2019 · 1h 5m
The central message is that true Christian life and building the church must be founded on fervent love for Christ, not merely adherence to commandments. The speaker emphasizes that love for God and neighbor is the core of the law, and this love must be deep enough to motivate obedience. He argues that discipleship means desiring to follow Jesus personally, even more than desiring heavenly rewards or physical comfort.

The message centers on the theme of unwavering faith, using the example of the poor widow who gave her all, which Jesus noted was more valuable than the surplus offerings. The core message is that God seeks those who trust completely in Him with their whole heart, mind, soul, and strength, urging the congregation to live a life entirely dependent on Him.

The speaker contrasts the self-serving attitude of King Hezekiah, who boasted about his earthly treasures, with the call to live selflessly for others. He draws parallels to the faith of the 'cloud of witnesses' in Hebrews 11, arguing that while many saints died in faith without seeing the final fulfillment, the current generation has the privilege of experiencing God's promised blessings, particularly the building of the Church.

Jeremy Utley - Redefining "Good Days" And "Bad Days"
Jeremy Utley · Jan 21, 2019 · 20m
The speaker shares a personal testimony about what he calls the 'worst day' of 2019, which was ironically a day filled with seemingly good activities. The realization that he went through the day feeling 'just fine' and not consciously depending on the Lord was the true failure. He emphasizes that true Christian living requires a constant awareness of needing God, even when things appear easy, and this realization prompted a need to repent.

The True Word of Faith - Santosh Poonen - January 13, 2019
Santosh Poonen · Jan 15, 2019 · 42m
The sermon emphasizes that the true word of faith is rooted in a deep, personal relationship with God, which involves recognizing His presence in all aspects of life, even during periods of silence. The speaker draws parallels between Jesus's disappointment in the fig tree—which had leaves but no fruit—and the spiritual state of the church, urging the congregation to bear visible, tangible fruit in their lives. Ultimately, the message calls for the church to be a united, living body that anticipates and experiences the full manifestation of Christ.

The speaker emphasizes that salvation requires both repentance and faith, comparing them to two necessary wires for electricity to flow. He urges listeners to move beyond superficial piety, calling for a desperate passion to be filled with the Holy Spirit and a deep hatred for sin. The message concludes by discussing grace, arguing that it is not unmerited favor but rather something earned through humility, which draws the spirit of grace like water flows to the lowest place.

Jeremy Utley - The Christian's Hope For What The New Year Will Bring
Jeremy Utley · Jan 9, 2019 · 19m
The central message is that a Christian's hope should not be fixed on a specific future date, but rather on the continuous grace received every time they turn to the Lord through the Holy Spirit. Drawing from 1 Peter 1:13 and 2 Corinthians 3, the speaker emphasizes that this hope is about ongoing transformation into Christ's image, requiring believers to actively guard their focus against drifting desires. True Christian hope is therefore an active commitment to seeking revelation and grace moment by moment.

Bobby McDonald - Discouragement Hinders Our Relationship With God And Our Fight Against Sin
Bobby McDonald · Jan 9, 2019 · 9m
The central message is that discouragement, particularly over sin, hinders both one's relationship with God and the fight against sin. Drawing from a story about a son who felt guilty despite his father's unconditional love, the speaker emphasizes that believers must combat unbelief by remembering God's grace and trusting in His help. True fellowship with God requires faith, not self-condemnation, and believers should strive to bring joy and a positive spirit into their relationships.

Sowing To Reap Eternal Life - Zac Poonen
Zac Poonen · Jan 9, 2019 · 1h 34m
The sermon emphasizes that believers should overcome doubts regarding God's constant happiness and presence, remembering that God is always in their midst as a victorious warrior. It teaches that while Christians are not instantly free from sin or sickness, Jesus's death on the cross defeated Satan completely, and our growth in strength comes progressively through ongoing trials, much like exercising in a gym.

Santosh Poonen · Jan 7, 2019 · 37m
The speaker encourages the congregation to focus on the promises of God's Word, believing that every promise must be fulfilled in each believer's life. He emphasizes that true faith is demonstrated by experiencing God's joy despite ongoing struggles. The core message revolves around three 'A's for the church: being 'Accepted' by God's immense, pre-foundation love; realizing that this love resides within us; and living in a way that reflects this divine connection.

God Will Help Us To Walk As Jesus Did - Zac Poonen
Zac Poonen · Jan 3, 2019 · 59m
The speaker urges listeners to view the command to 'walk in the same manner as Christ' (1 John 2:6) not as an impossible standard, but as a possibility granted by God's help, which is the language of faith. He warns against the tendency to disqualify parts of scripture or Christian living by claiming they are not for us, arguing that God's commands are always within our ability to fulfill. True faith embraces the possibility of living like Jesus did.

Bobby McDonald - Knowing that God is our Father vs Revelation that God is our Father
Bobby McDonald · Dec 28, 2018 · 21m
The central message is that true freedom from fear comes from deeply knowing and experiencing God as our Father. The speaker uses the Prodigal Son narrative to illustrate that acceptance is based on God's unconditional love, not on our perfect feelings of guilt or repentance. Furthermore, he argues that even Jesus had to grasp the truth of God the Father by faith, suggesting that our own faith must similarly anchor us against doubt and anxiety.

The Christian life is compared to a marathon requiring both faith and patience to finish according to God's will. The speaker emphasizes that true faith is a fundamental, basic confidence and trust in God's Word, exemplified by Abraham who believed without knowing the destination. Believers must keep their eyes fixed on the ultimate prize, Jesus Christ, and should expect trials, as God tests faith to prove it more precious than gold.

The message emphasizes that the Christian life requires striving to overcome, drawing encouragement from the image of a struggling snail reaching an ark. The speaker notes that God notices even the smallest efforts, and this principle applies to overcoming life's challenges, as exemplified by the speaker's anticipation of fatherhood. Ultimately, the core message is that true protection and life come not from self-sufficiency (like the turtle's shell) but from returning into the Father's embrace and fellowship.

The Three Floors Of The Christian Building - Zac Poonen
Zac Poonen · Dec 6, 2018 · 37m
The speaker outlines a three-story model for Christian life, starting with the foundation: God's perfect love, which provides security and freedom from discouragement. The second story is a personal devotion to Jesus Christ, viewing Him as a friend and bridegroom. The third story is maintaining a clear conscience and achieving victory over sin, which requires a deep longing (thirst) and true faith that God is more eager to give His promises than we are to receive them.

Bobby McDonald - Today Is the Day of Salvation
Bobby McDonald · Dec 4, 2018 · 15m
The central message emphasizes the urgency of seeking the Lord while He is near, drawing from Isaiah 55 and Matthew 7. The speaker argues that neglecting God's presence, even amidst busyness, is akin to forgetting one's first love. True happiness and peace come from fearing God and walking in His ways, which leads to a joyful repentance and acceptance of God's will, regardless of current circumstances.

The message emphasizes trusting God's grace for healing, financial needs, and future plans, ultimately finding true life and purpose in Him.

God Rewards Those Who Are Unworthy - Ajay Chakravarthy - November 11, 2018
Ajay Chakravarthy · Nov 19, 2018 · 19m
The central message is that God calls out to those who are unworthy, contrasting them with those who try to satisfy themselves with worldly or religious achievements. Drawing from Isaiah 55 and John 4, the speaker argues that those who have nothing to offer are the ones who can receive God's free, satisfying 'living water.' True satisfaction comes only from acknowledging our unworthiness and coming to Christ, rather than relying on our own 'broken cisterns.'
