Sanjay Poonen - God and the Church as a Picture of a Godly Mother
Summary
Sanjay Poonen uses the picture of a godly mother to illustrate how the church should function as God's strong tower, sanctuary, and place of care. Drawing from Scripture, he highlights three key characteristics: providing a safe refuge for the righteous, embracing redemptive suffering that produces joy and fruit, and serving as encouragers and helpers to those in need. The goal is for the church community to reflect God's motherly care and raise up a unified family centered on Christ.
