Zac Poonen - Broken and Poured Out
Zac Poonen · May 4, 2026
Breaking bread and drinking the cup is a solemn covenant to be broken—surrendering our self-centered nature—and poured out in service to others, exactly opposite to how the world operates. This means accepting humiliation without defensiveness, trusting God's promise that all things work for our good, and living the way of the cross that Jesus modeled by taking punishment he never deserved.
