Zac Poonen - God's Plan for Our Families
Summary
Zac Poonen teaches that the New Covenant emphasizes family life through the empowering presence of the Holy Spirit, which delivers believers from spiritual orphanhood and insecurity. He argues that healthy families require both husband and wife to know God intimately as Father and to be continuously filled with the Holy Spirit, which then naturally produces strong marriages and parenting—more foundational than external practices like family prayer. The true test of being filled with the Spirit is manifested in one's family relationships, not in manifestations like speaking in tongues, and this must be established before any effective ministry in the church can occur.
