Summary
Zac Poonen teaches that unresolved conflict blocks prayer and God's hearing. Drawing from Matthew 5-6, he emphasizes that Christians must first ask forgiveness from those they've hurt and forgive those who've hurt them before God will listen to their prayers; unforgiveness is serious enough to result in eternal separation from God.
