When people hear what Jesus has done for us, they’ll see what Jesus can do for them. That’s the essence of sharing the Gospel. But what HAS Jesus done for us? If we’ve lost sight of how our life has changed, it may be time to for some soul searching before we go out soul winning. Today on A NEW BEGINNING, Pastor Greg Laurie helps us reignite the passion in our hearts, and ignite our afterburners in our efforts to share Christ with those who need to meet Him. Today’s study is from the series called Refresh.

Why do some believers grow deep roots while others fade out fast? Jesus answered that question 2,000 years ago in the Parable of the Sower.

Turns out, spiritual growth isn’t one big decision—it’s thousands of small, daily choices. Bible or phone? Church or no church? Those choices add up, and they shape who you become.

Pastor Greg Laurie walks us through the four kinds of hearts Jesus describes: Hardened, shallow, crowded, and fruitful. And he shares the real “golden key” to lasting spiritual growth.

Notes:

Luke 8

 
The Christian life is more than praying a prayer and getting “fire insurance.”
 
It's following Jesus as your Savior and as your Lord.
 
Life is one long string of choices.
 
By not choosing spiritual growth, we choose spiritual decline.
 
Deuteronomy 30:19 (NKJV)
"I call heaven and earth as witnesses today against you, that I have set before you life and death, blessing and cursing; therefore choose life.”
 
If you want to go forward as a Christian, you will.
 
God has given us everything we need for spiritual growth and progress.
2 Peter 1:3
 
Read Luke 8:11–15 (NLT)
 
Which of these four soils represents you best?
Only one out of four makes it.
 
The job of the Sower is to throw the seed out far and wide.
 
This type of sowing seed was known as “broadcasting.”
 
Our job is to sow the seed of the word of God.
 
God does the work of conversion.
 
The Apostle Paul shows us how we each have a role to play.
1 Corinthians 3:6–7
 
The only way to tell if someone is really a Christian is through the test of time.
 
1 John 2:19 (NLT)
These people left our churches, but they never really belonged with us; otherwise they would have stayed with us. When they left, it proved that they did not belong with us.
 
Prodigals come to faith, fall away, and return later.
 
Some people have a weak beginning but a strong finish.
That is better than a strong beginning and no finish.
 
The Hardened Heart
Luke 8:12
 
Mark 4:15 (NLT)
“Only to have Satan come at once and take it away.”
 
Whenever you share the gospel with people, expect satanic opposition.
 
Every time you hear the gospel, your heart can get softer or harder.
 
Shallow Hearts
Luke 8:13
 
These are the hearers who seem to be converted but never get grounded in the faith.
 
They are living on an emotional high and a state of spiritual euphoria.
 
Perhaps they have experienced a supernatural touch from God.
 
Faith that cannot be tested is faith that cannot be trusted.
 
Christianity is Christ!
 
“Christianity has not been tried and found wanting. It has been found difficult and left untried.”
—G.K. Chesterton
 
Some people are simply impulsive by nature.

Some people fall away because they have built their faith on the wrong foundation.
 
Some people fall away because of persecution.
 
Mark 4:17 (NLT)
But since they don't have deep roots, they don't last long. They fall away as soon as they have problems or are persecuted for believing God's word.
 
2 Timothy 3:12 (NKJV)
Yes, and all who desire to live godly in Christ Jesus will suffer persecution.
 
Some people fall away because unbelief set in, causing them to doubt God at the first emotional low.
 
Infested Hearts
Luke 8:14
 
Second best is often the worst enemy of the best.
 
Excessive worry can crowd out spiritual growth.
Mark 4:19
 
We live in a time when people are obsessed with extending their lives.
 
God determines the length of our lives.
Job 14:5
 
Fruitful Hearers
Luke 8:15
 
The golden key to spiritual growth is how you hear and respond to God’s word.
 
Mark 4:20 (NLT)
“Those who hear and accept God's word.”
 
The difference isn’t exposure to the word.
It’s what the heart does once it lands.
 
The Bible is everywhere, but it’s not in our hearts.
 
The issue is not access. It’s appetite.
 
Luke 12:48 (NIV)
From everyone who has been given much, much will be demanded; and from the one who has been entrusted with much, much more will be asked.
 
The hardest thing about studying the Bible is sitting down and opening it.
 
Standing the test of time, finishing the spiritual life well, is not a mystery.
It is maintaining a close and vibrant relationship with Christ.
 
Read the Bible daily.
Pray about things.
Go to church regularly.
Share your faith.

Pain can deepen us. It can make us more compassionate, thoughtful, and ready to care for others walking through their own valleys.

In Part 1 of Greg Laurie's conversation with Chuck Swindoll, they talk candidly about grief, calling, preaching, and the lessons God teaches through it all. Watch the rest of this episode on The Greg Laurie Show.

Imagine coming upon a burning car with someone trapped inside. And you help them get free. Or imagine seeing a toddler heading toward a busy street just as momma turns her head. And you scoop him up just in the nick of time. It’s a good day when you save someone from peril! Today on A NEW BEGINNING, Pastor Greg Laurie points out, we save someone from eternal peril when we help them come to Christ. And when that happens, it’s a very good day! Practical help today with evangelism.

When you think back on your spiritual journey and how it was that you came to Christ, most likely there was at least one human being involved in the process. Aren’t you thankful for that person? Well, we each have the opportunity to be “that person” for someone else. It’s God’s plan for disseminating the Good News. And today on A NEW BEGINNING, as part of his series called Refresh, Pastor Greg Laurie points out how refreshing it is when we follow through with our evangelism privilege and responsibility.

Some seem to believe the realm of evangelism is for “men of the cloth” . . . for pastors, ministers, evangelists. Today on A NEW BEGINNING, Pastor Greg Laurie says it’s a privilege and responsibility shared by all believers. In recent days, he’s been pointing out the tremendous lessons we can learn from Jonah’s success in Nineveh. It was the most successful evangelistic gathering in history. And there are six practical lessons we can learn from that account. Let’s take some notes.

Whatever we’ve accumulated in life, we can’t take it with us when life is over. It’s like a game of Monopoly . . . the cash, the houses, the hotels . . . when the game is over, it all goes back in the box. But there is one exception. People. We can take people to heaven with us. The Lord invites us, urges us, to share the Gospel, and invite them to Christ. Today on A NEW BEGINNING, Pastor Greg Laurie offers good encouragement as a part of his encouraging series called Refresh.

God has given us mere humans the opportunity to participate in giving life. A mom and dad bring life into this world with their newborn baby. And as believers, we have the privilege of bringing the message of new life to people as we share Christ. But some folks are not easily persuaded. They’re stuck in their sin and don’t want to move. Today on A NEW BEGINNING, Pastor Greg Laurie points out how we can reach the unreachable. It’s part of his series called Refresh.

How then shall they call on Him in whom they have not believed? And how shall they believe in Him of whom they have not heard? And how shall they hear without a preacher? God reaches people through people. God may want to reach someone you know . . . through you! And today on A NEW BEGINNING, Pastor Greg Laurie helps us be ready for that assignment. There’s nothing like helping someone meet Jesus and find eternal life! You’ll never forget it. The reward is worth the risk.

Wood that’s been split and sawn, and sanded and shaped can make some fine furniture. But if our compassion should get the best of us and we didn’t want to see that wood face that stress, most of us would just have some chunks of tree sitting in our living rooms. Today on A NEW BEGINNING, Pastor Greg Laurie points out how the sanding and shaping in our lives helps us mature into the kind of people God wants us to be. Good encouragement coming today.

There’s a good chance you’ve seen a two-man saw. With handles on both sides, it’s an excellent example of teamwork. One man pushes, the other man pulls – and then vice versa. Some of those saws were 12 feet long. The Christian life has many examples of teamwork, and today on A NEW BEGINNING, Pastor Greg Laurie helps us focus on discipleship. It addresses the push n’ pull of daily life as a believer – where a new believer and a veteran believer each have something to offer the other.

When was the last time you were the “newbie” on the job . . . the new guy or gal just hired? If you were fortunate, you had someone come alongside you to show you the ropes. Because if you don’t know anything, it’s hard to do anything. Well today on A NEW BEGINNING, Pastor Greg Laurie points out how we tutor new believers through a process called “discipleship.” It’s a process of spiritual duplication where older believers give the younger an example to follow, a paradigm for success.

The most patriotic thing you can do this month is have a broken heart for the 330 million people who need a Savior.

Notes:

Psalm 127:1 (NKJV)
Unless the LORD builds the house,
They labor in vain who build it;
Unless the LORD guards the city,
The watchman stays awake in vain.
 
2 Chronicles 7:14 (NKJV)
If My people who are called by My name will humble themselves, and pray and seek My face, and turn from their wicked ways, then I will hear from heaven, and will forgive their sin and heal their land.

Luke 19:40 (NKJV)
But He answered and said to them, “I tell you that if these should keep silent, the stones would immediately cry out.”

A nation where the gospel can be freely preached is worth fighting for.
 
 Jesus came to deal with sin.
He came to bring spiritual restoration.
He came to rule as an Eternal King.
 
The Terms of Peace
Luke 19:41–44
 
Matthew 23:37–38 (NKJV)
“O Jerusalem, Jerusalem, the one who kills the prophets and stones those who are sent to her! How often I wanted to gather your children together, as a hen gathers her chicks under her wings, but you were not willing! See! Your house is left to you desolate.”
 
Luke 19:42 (NKJV)
“If you had known, even you, especially in this your day, the things that make for your peace! But now they are hidden from your eyes.”
 
“Jesus knew that their desire for a political Messiah would bring total destruction in less than a generation.”  —David Guzik
 
The most patriotic thing you can do today is to have a broken heart for the 330 million people who need a Savior.
 
Read Luke 19:45-48
 
Cleansing the Temple
Luke 19:45–48
 
The revolution Jesus came to start was never going to begin in the halls of government. It has always started with His people.
 
“To the distinguished Character of Patriot, it should be our highest Glory to add the more distinguished Character of Christian.”  —George Washington

2 Chronicles 7:14 (NKJV)
If My people who are called by My name will humble themselves, and pray and seek My face, and turn from their wicked ways, then I will hear from heaven, and will forgive their sin and heal their land.
 
 Are we desperate enough?
 
America is not an accident, and her best days will not be determined in Washington; it will be by all of us.
 
Psalm 139:23–24 (NKJV)
Search me, O God, and know my heart;
Try me, and know my thoughts;
And see if [there is any] wicked way in me,
And lead me in the way everlasting.

It’s been said that, when we get to the end of our rope, we get to the beginning of God. A lot of truth in that statement. When we’re out of answers, and short on hope, God opens His supply of reassurance and direction. And today on A NEW BEGINNING, Pastor Greg Laurie has good insight for those challenging times. We’re glad you’ve joined us for his new series called “Refresh: What Every Christian Needs to Know.” Valuable information for believers who face the challenges of life.

Sometimes, a child needs a little help from his mom or dad. Whether it’s trying to tie his shoe, or trying to climb a tree, sometimes he just can quite make it on his own. Well, whether we admit or not, we often need help from our Heavenly Father. When we try to live a righteous life, but still have a sin nature, that’s when we need to rely on our God. And today on A NEW BEGINNING, Pastor Greg Laurie helps us see how to call on God and accept His help in our daily walk.

When we think about sitting down, we might think that’s pretty relaxing. But if you’re sitting in traffic, not so much. If you’re sitting in the doctor’s office, you might be fearing bad news. Many are fearful sitting on an airplane. But is God feeling fear or tension as He sits on His throne? No. Today on A NEW BEGINNING, Pastor Greg Laurie helps us tap in to God’s state of mind through the power of prayer. He invites us to taste of the refreshing reassurance of a heavenly point of view.

Some things seem impossible. But with God, nothing is. Even our nation, which seems so filled with darkness, can change with the Lord.

Yes, there is hope for America. And it starts with Christians.

Christians are salt and light. Salt preserves. Salt stimulates thirst. Light exposes darkness and shows the way out. And as salt and light, Christians must infiltrate culture, not isolate. Christians are not called to evade, but invade.

And who knows? You may be the only representative of Jesus some people will ever see! They may never read the Bible, but they’ll read your life.

Notes:

Some things just seem impossible. But with God, nothing is impossible.
 
Our country is in a state of moral and spiritual crisis.
 
We have two options before us as a nation: judgment or revival.
 
Read Matthew 5:13–16 (NKJV)
 
The world needs salt because it is corrupt and light because it is dark.
  
This world will get worse before it gets better.
2 Timothy 3:13
 
Sometimes Christians try to isolate.
 
Jesus has not called us to isolate, but to infiltrate. Not to evade but to invade.
 
Jesus is sending us into the world.
  
Before the American Revolution, there was spiritual revelation.
 
The American Revolution worked because it was rooted in spiritual and biblical principles.
 
“To the distinguished character of Patriot, it should be our highest glory
to add the more distinguished character of Christian”.  —George Washington
 
“The Constitution was made only for a moral and religious people. It is wholly inadequate for the government of any other.”  —John Adams
 
We must stand for truth, whether it is popular or not.
 
To reach our culture, we must use a language people understand.
 
1 Corinthians 9:22–23
 
We need to bring them the message of the gospel.
 
2 Corinthians 2:14–15
 
But before we can effectively tell them, we must first live it.
 
Salt Preserves
The main function of salt in Jesus’ day was preservation.
 
Christians, like salt, are also here to preserve.
 
Salt Stimulates Thirst
As we live godly lives, we make other people thirsty for God.
 
We cannot stimulate spiritual thirst in others if we have lost our own.
 
We cannot be used by God to stop the corruption of sin in others if sin has corrupted us.
Matthew 5:13
 
Jesus first says we are to be salt, then He says we are to be light.
 
Salt is hidden, whereas light is obvious.
Salt works secretly while light works openly.
Salt works from within, but light works from without.
 
Salt works primarily through our living, while light works through what we say to others.
 
Light exposes the darkness.
 
You are the only representative of Jesus Christ that many nonbelievers will ever see.
 
We need to infiltrate, not isolate, being both salt and light.
  
We need to pray.
2 Chronicles 7:14
 
We need to preach the gospel message.
 
There is hope for America, and there is hope for you.
 
Hebrews 4:7(b)
If you can hear His voice, harden not your heart.

Are Harvest Crusades still relevant in today's culture, or are they a thing of the past? In this episode, Greg Laurie explains why these large-scale evangelistic events remain as effective as ever—whether people attend in person or online—and why Christians play a vital role in helping others hear the gospel through them.

Oh, it was your jaw hitting the floor. Imagine! What an invitation! Well today on A NEW BEGINNING, we see we have an invitation from God himself to come to Him anytime in prayer. No cell phone required. Pastor Greg Laurie is offering insights to help encourage us straight from the truths in God’s Word.

To borrow from Mark Twain, “bad news can travel halfway around the world, while good news is still putting on its shoes.” When an influential believer falls into sin, it seems like we hear about it at the speed of light. But how do we reach out to someone who’s helped us, when they’re the ones who need help? Pastor Greg Laurie answers that question today on A NEW BEGINNING. We’re considering a story about Noah in the book of Genesis. This godly man sinned. But we can learn from this biblical account.

So many of us spend so little time thinking about the Lord during the day, and yet we want to live with Him forever. God’s Word has a bottomless supply of insights for life, but social media captures so much more of most people’s attention. Well today on A NEW BEGINNING, as Pastor Greg Laurie continues our Genesis series, we’ll see how Noah remembered the Lord – it was his priority – after reaching dry land following the Flood. We’ll learn a number of principles from following the life of this great patriarch!

The Harvest Crusade is coming to Angel Stadium on July 11! Stay updated on all important event details.

When you have to walk a ways in the snow, sometimes it’s easiest to use the same footprints on your way back. They’re easy enough to see. What footprints do we leave in our lives, that allow our adversary the easiest access to our thoughts and actions? Today on A NEW BEGINNING, as Pastor Greg Laurie continues his series in Genesis, we’ll see the enemy is always on the prowl, looking for his next target. But we’ll learn practical principles for locking the Devil out . . . leaving him out in the cold.

Mankind has had some great ideas: air travel, space flight, the wheel, the smartphone. But everyday, each of us has some very bad ideas. God calls them sin. But, good or bad, it starts with an idea. And today on A NEW BEGINNING, Pastor Greg Laurie helps us keep our ideas in check. We’re launching a new series from “the book of beginnings,” the book of Genesis. We’ll see dangerous ideas can be traced all the way back to the Garden of Eden.

How does the Devil cause so much mayhem among believers? He has help! He and his minions set their sights on believers trying to make them fall . . . and they’re quite good at what they do. But today on A NEW BEGINNING, Pastor Greg Laurie points out victory is assured for God’s children when we stand in the victory of Jesus. We’re in the Garden of Eden today watching Adam and Eve struggle against the temptation of our adversary, and we’ll see how that struggle affects us even today.

In the Lord’s Prayer, we read “Lead us not into temptation.” Yeah, we certainly don’t want to go down that path. But haven’t you found that sometimes temptation comes up the path and finds us! Temptation is pervasive. It’s ubiquitous. Today on A NEW BEGINNING, Pastor Greg Laurie helps us dissect temptation. We’ll trace its roots all the way back to the Garden of Eden. And Pastor Greg offers some biblical insights on how to stop Satan’s attacks right in their tracks.

Many products have labels noting where they were made. Maybe Made in China, Japan, Mexico, or Made in the U.S.A. Metaphorically, if we were to look at our label – the label of man himself – it would say “Made in the Garden of Eden . . . by God.” You and I were handcrafted by our Heavenly Father. And today on A NEW BEGINNING, Pastor Greg Laurie points out, not only were man and woman handmade by God, the institution of marriage was, as well. Today we’ll get the full story.

If you don’t know where you’re going, how do you know when you get there? It seems some people are in permanent wander mode. They’re drifting. But those who live for the Lord continually encounter the wonder of God. Wonder . . . or wander? The choice is up to us. And today on A NEW BEGINNING, Pastor Greg Laurie helps connect us with the plan and purpose of God. We’re in the opening message of a study series in the book of Genesis. We’re considering God’s plan from the very beginning.

God’s plan for Creation and His plan for mankind, included His plan for man’s redemption. Even before the heavens and the earth were created, He knew man’s freewill would lead him astray. . . and He had a solution before we even tasted of the forbidden fruit. Today on A NEW BEGINNING, Pastor Greg Laurie digs in to God’s plan as revealed in Genesis. To understand something best, we need to take it from the top – chapter 1, verse 1 of book #1 in God’s Word.

As we wait on Jesus' return, Christians are not to be still, but to go about the business God's assigned. If Jesus came back right now and asked "What have you done with what I've given you?" what would be your honest answer? It's not too late to start doing more!

In this message, Pastor Greg Laurie opens Scripture and points us in a proactive, rather than inactive, direction.

"If we're too busy using our sickles on each other, we'll miss the harvest." —Vance Havner

They often say values are caught more than taught. We can proclaim “do as I say not as I do” all day long, but we have to go the way in order to show the way. Today on A NEW BEGINNING, Pastor Greg Laurie brings good encouragement for dads. Pastor Greg brings some deeply personal insights today from his own life . . . growing up without a dad, for the most part, but learning how to draw from Scripture and from other positive role models around him.

We all have a Father we can look up to. Even if the man we called dad was a disappointment, or abusive, or just less than loving, we have a Father in heaven who loves us.

“If I had only known.” It’s a sentence filled with regret. “If I had only known that would be the last time I’d see my mom.” “If I’d only known the house wasn’t safe to live in . . . or, the water wasn’t safe to drink, or the car wasn’t safe to drive.” Many may have a similar regret when they one day stand before the Lord. Today on A NEW BEGINNING, Pastor Greg Laurie brings us face to face with the regret that enveloped a certain Old Testament king. It serves as a strong warning to all of us.

Be steadfast and immovable, always abounding in the work of the Lord. That was an exhortation from the Apostle Paul in First Corinthians. We DO the work of the Lord, and we’re to BE steadfast and immovable. When the winds of change blow through our culture, we’re to be solid as a rock. And today on A NEW BEGINNING, Pastor Greg Laurie points out how to do that as we consider a man who showed us how NOT to do that. We’re considering an epic failure in the Old Testament.

A ship’s captain approaching a foggy seaport will navigate based on the light from the lighthouse, not from the light of other boats. Boats drift, lighthouses stand secure. Do we navigate the life of faith based on the conduct of other believers, or based on the One we believe in? What’s the hymn say, “On Christ the solid rock I stand, all other ground is sinking sand.” Today on A NEW BEGINNING, Pastor Greg Laurie help us put that objective into practice.

Many of us are carrying burdens God never intended us to carry. We carry worry, fear, anxiety, guilt, and more. Prayer is God's invitation to transfer those burdens from our shoulders to His. The Bible says “Give all your worries and cares to God, for he cares about you” (1 Peter 5:7 NLT). Prayer is not informing God of something He doesn't know. Prayer is inviting God into something we can't handle.

Notes:

Luke 18
  
As God’s child, you don’t need a badge to reach Him.
 
Hebrews 10:19 (NLT)
And so, dear brothers and sisters, we can boldly enter heaven's Most Holy Place because of the blood of Jesus.
 
Prayer is the Christian’s secret weapon.
 
There is a right and a wrong way to pray.
 
Prayer is God’s invitation to transfer those burdens He never intended for us to carry from our shoulders to His.
 
God cares about your problem.
 
1Peter 5:7 (NKJV)
Casting all your care upon Him, for He cares for you.
  
Jehosaphat called the people together for prayer.
2 Chronicles 20:12
 
God is bigger than your problem.
 
2 Chronicles 20:6 (NLT)
“O LORD, God of our ancestors, you alone are the God who is in heaven. You are ruler of all the kingdoms of the earth. You are powerful and mighty; no one can stand against you!”
 
Prayer is inviting God into something we can’t handle.
 
God has His perfect timing.
 
Read Luke 18:1–8
 
We need to be persistent in our prayer.
Luke 18:1
We all have a choice as to what we will do and to whom we will turn when a crisis hits. We can lose heart or we can pray.
 
We should pray simply because Jesus told us to.
 
We should pray because prayer is God’s appointed way for obtaining things.
 
James 4:2
You have not because you ask not.
 
Luke 11:9
Ask and it shall be given, seek and you shall find, knock and it will be opened to you.
 
Prayer is the way God helps us to overcome our anxiety and worry.
 
Philippians 4:6 (NLT)
Don't worry about anything; instead, pray about everything. Tell God what you need, and thank him for all he has done.
 
Philippians 4:7 (NLT)
Then you will experience God’s peace, which exceeds anything we can understand. His peace will guard your hearts and minds as you live in Christ Jesus.
 
Worry is not a virtue but can actually be a sin.
 
Worry does not empty tomorrow of its sorrow; it empties today of its strength.
 
The judge was the powerful one; the widow was the weaker one.
 
Our loving Father in Heaven is the very opposite of this judge.
Luke 18:7
 
The widowed woman had persistence and a just cause, and that was enough. We have something far greater, a Heavenly Father who already wants to help us.
 
Every prayer is answered:
Yes,
No,
Wait.
 
Read Luke 18:9–14
 
We look on the outside, God looks on the inside.
1 Samuel 16:7
 
The most religious man in the room went home empty, and the man nobody wanted to sit next to went home justified before God.

Some will use prayer as an opportunity to:
Brag.
Gossip.
Impress.
 
Attitude is so very important in prayer.
 
If we pray selfishly, it can hinder our prayers.
James 4:2–3
 
An unforgiving attitude toward another can hinder our prayers.
Matthew 6:15
 
We must confess our sin to God.
 
How do we approach God?
Like the widow, with persistence.
Like the tax collector, with humility.
Like little children.
 
Read Luke 18:15–17
 
Luke 18:16
Let the little children come to me
 
The objective of every parent is to bring their children to Christ.
 
God sees things differently than we do.
The weak widow is strong because she prays with persistence.
The sinful man’s prayer is heard because he admits his sin.
The child is an example for us to follow in approaching God.
 
To be childlike means we come with complete honesty to God.
 
Children come with complete helplessness.
 
We must come in complete dependence on God to be saved and forgiven.
 
Children know how to receive a gift.
 
Come like a child to Jesus right now.
 
Worry is strangling you, guilt is crushing you, and fear won’t let you sleep.
 
Jesus said, “Come unto me all who are burdened with life.”
 
Come to Jesus as you are, a sinner, and become His child.

How do you pass along the cold, hard truth and a warm and loving way? Is it in the words we choose . . . the body language we present . . . the context in which it’s expressed? Yes, yes and yes. But more than that, today Pastor Greg Laurie points out that it comes from a heart of genuine compassion and concern, energized by God’s love. Today here on A NEW BEGINNING, Pastor Greg begins the final message in his series in First, Second and Third John.

Not many people come into the Kingdom because they were sufficiently brow-beaten by someone sharing their faith. Few have surrendered to Christianity simply because they lost a fiery religious debate. The Bible tells us “His kindness leads us to repentance.” God’s love can soften the hardest of hearts. God’s mercy beckons those who’ve lost their way. And coming up today on A NEW BEGINNING, Pastor Greg Laurie helps us learn to put the Lord’s compassion into practice.

If it sounds too good to be true, it probably is, right? We’ve seen the headlines: People getting duped by smooth talkers, shady deals, and empty promises.

Many of us remember our most embarrassing moment. Maybe we said something we shouldn’t have . . . or did something we shouldn’t have. It may have been silly or something serious but we remember everything about that moment. Sometimes our sin can be like that. We know the Lord has forgiven us, but we’re not too sure we’ve forgiven us. Today on A NEW BEGINNING, Pastor Greg Laurie helps us see just how complete the Lord’s forgiveness is. It’s just as if it never happened.

Our spiritual adversary has been at war with believers for a long time. Thousands of years, in fact. He knows how to trip us up . . . and sadly, admittedly, he’s pretty good at it. So how do we stand strong? Today on A NEW BEGINNING, Pastor Greg Laurie points us to the battle-tested truth of God’s Word. The good news? We’re not fighting for victory; we’re fighting from victory. God has already won, and He’s equipped us to stand our ground.
