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.

God Teaches the Humble His Way — Ajay Chakravarthy — February 22, 2026
Ajay Chakravarthy · Feb 22, 2026 · 43m
God teaches His way to the humble, as exemplified by the shepherds who followed the star to find Jesus.

Ajay Chakravarthy · Mar 24, 2025 · 33m

Ajay Chakravarthy · Mar 9, 2025 · 40m

He uses examples from the Bible, such as Saul's persecution and the rich young ruler's refusal, to illustrate that both aggressive and polite refusal are equally detrimental.

Ajay Chakravarthy · Feb 9, 2025 · 29m
The speaker encourages listeners to examine where their faith is currently leaning, contrasting two types of trust. He uses the examples of Jacob and Naaman to illustrate that true faith is not transactional—believing God only for earthly blessings—but rather a complete reliance on God Himself, viewing Him as the essential crutch for life. The core message is to trust in the Lord completely, leaning on Him alone rather than on personal understanding or the favor of people.

Ajay Chakravarthy · Dec 22, 2024 · 46m
The sermon uses biblical examples—Peter walking on water, the healing of the boy with seizures, and the paralyzed man at the pool—to illustrate that while people often cry out for rescue from sin and life's struggles, true healing requires more than just a cry.

Ajay Chakravarthy · Jul 17, 2024 · 47m
The speaker recounts his personal journey of coming to faith, realizing the seriousness of eternity, and understanding the necessity of genuine repentance.
