October 20, 2023 07:00 - 29 minutes - 26.8 MBWhen we’ve invited someone over for dinner, and they’re on their way, our excitement about it says something about our feelings for them, does it not?

Who Is Jesus? | Don’t Miss This
October 19, 2023 07:00 - 28 minutes - 25.9 MBWe could call the sun a source of warmth – but that misses the enormity.

Who Is God? | Following God's Path
October 16, 2023 07:00 - 27 minutes - 25 MBIf you’re on a long road trip, you’ve got to map out your course. If you don’t know where you’re going, how do you know when you get there!? As we travel the road of life, serving the Lord, heavenbound, we need to make sure we’re on course. If we ignore the direction of Scripture, we may discover we’re on that broad road that leads to destruction. Today on A NEW BEGINNING, Pastor Greg Laurie helps us recalibrate what we know, and what we do with what we know. Glad you’re along! Listen on ha...

The Power of One, Part 2 | The Effect of Our Choices
October 13, 2023 07:00 - 31 minutes - 29.2 MBPeople who attend class reunions are often surprised. Sometimes, the more popular people way back when have lost that prominence . . . and the prominent people today were the wallflowers years ago. And that’s not really random or accidental.

We’ll learn to chose well. Listen on h...

October 12, 2023 07:00 - 30 minutes - 27.9 MBThroughout the Bible, we see stories of God using individuals to accomplish great things: Noah, Abraham, David, Solomon.

On the Outside Looking In | How Do You Represent Christ?
October 10, 2023 07:00 - 26 minutes - 24.5 MBThe Bible tells us that believers are ambassadors, or representatives of Christ. Each of us is a walking, talking billboard for the Lord.

Get Your Feet Wet! | Sunday Message
October 08, 2023 07:00 - 48 minutes - 44.3 MBPastor Greg Laurie gives us wisdom from Joshua 3–4, where we see the Israelites cross the Jordan River. Notes: The Christian life is not a playground but a battleground, and there’s not really a choice of fighting or not fighting; it’s a choice of victory or defeat. Deuteronomy 6:23 “He brought us out, that He might bring us in.” The people of Canaan were wicked. When people repent, God relents!

It's All How You Look at Things | God's Perspective
October 06, 2023 07:00 - 25 minutes - 23.1 MBWhen you’re driving clear across the country, you might encounter the Rocky Mountains. A huge mountain range. Pikes Peak alone jets up more than 14,000 feet into the sky. But when you fly over those mountains on an airliner, it kinda looks like the same ground you saw an hour ago but with more . . . texture.

October 05, 2023 07:00 - 28 minutes - 26.1 MBThere are some passages in the Bible that sound poetic and inspiring.

How to Have Friendship with God | Approaching God in Prayer
October 03, 2023 07:00 - 29 minutes - 26.9 MBThe Lord never advises us to approach His throne gingerly, with reluctance and uncertainty.

So today, Pastor Greg Laurie continues his series on the life of Moses uncovering the leader’s faithful ministry of intercessory prayer. Listen ...

The Heart of the Problem | What Is Coveting?
September 29, 2023 07:00 - 25 minutes - 23.4 MBAt various times, we all come down with a case of the “gimmes.” Gimme this, gimme that. And nearly every advertisement feeds that craving. Whatever they say, what they really mean is, “You want one of these, don’t you?” A new car, a new phone, a new outfit. But today on A NEW BEGINNING, Pastor Greg Laurie points out the biblical reference to coveting goes even beyond the gimmes. “I don’t just want one...I want YOURS.” Today, we’ll see it’s addressed in the 10 Commandments.

The Heart of the Problem | Changing Our Behaviors
September 28, 2023 07:00 - 27 minutes - 25.1 MBChildren often look like their parents. It could be facial features, the way they move their hands as they speak, or their laugh. And a child will often mimic his parents’ mannerisms. Something about an apple not falling far from a tree.

Today on A NEW BEGINNING, Pastor Greg Laurie helps us chart a course for our behavior from the Lord’s 10 Commandments. Listen o...

Violence & Sex | How to Renew Your Mind
September 25, 2023 07:00 - 26 minutes - 24.2 MBIf there’s some liquid left in the bottom of a drinking glass – milk, juice, soft drink – what’s the first thing we do to get it clean.

Violence & Sex | How to Respond to Hatred
September 22, 2023 07:00 - 26 minutes - 23.9 MBThe Bible tells us God is love. Yes, He’s loving, but First John 4:8 says God IS love. And it says, “He who does not love does not know God . . .” So it should come as no surprise that hatred is not a part of God’s plan for believers. But today on A NEW BEGINNING, Pastor Greg Laurie addresses the hatred we see around us in our culture. What are we as believers to do? Good insight is coming. And a word to parents – the content of today’s study may be a little too strong for younger ears. Lis...
The Family Matters | Sharing Your Faith With Your Kids
September 21, 2023 07:00 - 30 minutes - 27.6 MBTeaching our children to walk and talk is not usually intimidating. Teaching them to tie a shoe or pedal a bike is in our comfort zone.

Today on A NEW BEGINNING, Pastor Greg Laurie brings us solid insight based on the 10 Commandments found in Exodus chapter 20. Glad you’re along. Listen on harvest.o...
The Family Matters | God's Design for the Home
September 20, 2023 07:00 - 26 minutes - 24.7 MBThe cultural definition of a family is quite broad and all-encompassing. It’s proudly inclusive. But when we get creative with what a family is, we get creative with how a family works. And if we get too creative, maybe it’s time to consult the Creator. Today on A NEW BEGINNING, Pastor Greg Laurie gets us back to bedrock truth as laid out in God’s timeless Word. We’ll go back to the 10 Commandments and discuss how to honor God’s design for how homes can function best. Listen on harvest.org ...

What's the Big Deal with God's Name? | Honoring God's Name
September 18, 2023 07:00 - 26 minutes - 24.2 MBGod Almighty is worthy of all glory and honor. We’re mere men and women under the umbrella of His divine authority. So how inappropriate is it to express some kind of disrespect or dishonor to God on high? It’s almost a question that doesn’t need to be asked.

September 14, 2023 07:00 - 29 minutes - 26.6 MBWe each have to make a decision in our relationship with God. Are we sold out . . . or are we a sell out? Are we sold out for the Lord, where He is number one and we don’t compromise? Or do we allow ourselves to sell out to the world and its lures? We face that question afresh each and every day. And today on A NEW BEGINNING, Pastor Greg Laurie points out that’s an issue that’s addressed up front in the 10 Commandments, and it’s a decision that affects our quality of life.

September 12, 2023 07:00 - 25 minutes - 23.5 MBWhat time is it? No, really. What’s the exact time? How do we know what the exact time is? Maybe your clock is a few seconds different from mine. The defacto standard is International Atomic Time, a weighted average of time kept by over 400 atomic clocks in 50 laboratories worldwide. That’s the source that’s trustworthy. When it comes to right and wrong, Pastor Greg Laurie says the trustworthy standard is God’s Word. And we’ll consult that standard today on A NEW BEGINNING. Listen on harves...
The Desert Song | Remembering What's Important
September 11, 2023 07:00 - 29 minutes - 27 MBOne of the great tools to memorization is repetition. If we hear something over and over, we can’t help but remember.

Between Impossible & More Impossible | Get Moving
September 07, 2023 07:00 - 27 minutes - 25.4 MBGPS systems have come a long way over the years.
