Sunil Poonen - Finding God's Rest in Your Trials
Summary
Pastor Sunil Poonen teaches on finding God's rest during trials by becoming childlike and humble, emphasizing that believers must learn gentleness and humility from Jesus' example of submission to the Father. True rest comes through daily obedience, trusting God's sovereignty, and releasing control of circumstances rather than being overwhelmed or prideful about matters beyond our comprehension.

Sunil Poonen - The Lord Longs to Be Gracious
Sunil Poonen · May 5, 2026
Sunil Poonen teaches that God longs to be gracious to those who repent, using Isaiah 30 to show that true sin is executing our own plans rather than consulting God's Spirit in daily decisions. He encourages believers not to fear repentance but to see it as an invitation to God's compassion, assuring them that when they cry out to the Lord, He will not cast them out but will meet them with grace and mercy.
