Zac Poonen emphasizes the critical need for a proper sense of values in life, illustrating how many, like a blind man or a child, often prioritize worthless things over what truly matters. He warns that spiritual blindness leads to wasted lives, even among believers who may be saved but lack the right priorities. Poonen highlights that true values are found in eternal rather than temporal pursuits, urging listeners to reassess their priorities in light of Jesus' teachings. He calls for a re-evaluation of what is deemed important, as many are unaware of their spiritual bankruptcy. Ultimately, he encourages believers to seek the light of the Bible to guide their understanding of true values.
