Zac Poonen - The Dual Meaning Of The Breaking Of Bread
Summary
The sermon explores the dual meaning of the 'breaking of bread,' arguing it signifies both a personal surrender of one's will to God's plan and a corporate unity within the Church. Drawing from scripture, the speaker emphasizes that true Christian life involves allowing God to break our own will, mirroring Christ's obedience, and participating together in the shared body of Christ.

Zac Poonen - The Meaning of the Breaking of Bread
Zac Poonen · Apr 7, 2025
Zac Poonen teaches that breaking bread is a proclamation of the Lord's death through how we live—dying to worldly attractions and sin, and rising with Christ to seek heavenly things. He emphasizes that true communion involves self-examination to assess whether we are actually living as those who have died and been resurrected with Christ, which is the deeper, transformative meaning of this practice that most believers fail to grasp.
