Better Together | Reaching the World
2d ago00:28:26Tap to summarizeChristianity is a worldwide faith. Some say over 31% are Christians the world over. Yet, if you rewind history, Christianity began in a small geographic area on the other side of the globe, with just a handful of followers. How in the world did they reach the world!?

Transcribe →The Secret to Sharing the Gospel Effectively | Called to Be a Witness
3d ago00:25:47Tap to summarizeWhen God wanted to share His message of love, surprisingly He chose to use people to reach people. Flawed, fallible, foible-filled people. Ahh, but the power of the message is not in us messengers, it’s built in to the message. And the boldness and direction we need is built in to us by the Spirit who lives within us. Pastor Greg Laurie discusses that today on A NEW BEGINNING as he continues a message from his brand new series in Acts – a series called The Upside-Down Life. — Become a Harvest Partner today and join us in knowing God and making Him known through media and large-scale evangelism, our mission of over 30 years.

4d ago00:28:27Tap to summarizeWhether it’s a small folk group or a large orchestra, beautiful music comes when everyone plays together in rhythm and harmony. If each is playing a different tune, they have a word for that: yuck! Today on A NEW BEGINNING, Pastor Greg Laurie points out the importance of unity in our efforts to bring the Gospel to our generation. In a time of division and disunity in the culture, it’s more important than ever that we all come together “in one accord,” as the Bible puts it. — Become a Harvest Partner today and join us in knowing God and making Him known through media and large-scale evangelism, our mission of over 30 years.

Transcribe →The Vineyard Isn’t Yours | Sunday Message (Pastor Jonathan Laurie)
5d ago00:53:49Tap to summarizeEverything we have ultimately belongs to God, and we are called to faithfully manage what He has entrusted to us. Listen in to Pastor Jonathan Laurie's message as he explores this life-changing truth. Notes: Luke 20 1 Thessalonians 4:14 (MSG)Since Jesus died and broke loose from the grave, God will most certainly bring back to life those who died in Jesus. Good parents get involved. God created systems of authority, starting with the family. Exodus 20:12 (NKJV)"Honor your father and your mother, that your days may be long upon the land which the LORD your God is giving you.” If you learn to submit to authority, things will go well for you. Because we love our children, we discipline them. “If you raise your children, you’ll get to spoil your grandchildren.If you spoil your children, you’ll get to raise your grandchildren.” 1 Timothy 5:8 (NKJV)But if anyone does not provide for his own, and especially for those of his household, he has denied the faith and is worse than an unbeliever. Provide: pronoeōto give careful thought to, take thought for, take into consideration, have regard for,to think about beforehand in a solicitous manner, care for, provide for someone Teaching your children to honor your authority will naturally lead them to honor the Highest Authority, God Himself. The Vineyard Isn’t YoursLuke 20 Read Luke 20:1–8 (NKJV) The Scene of the CrimeLuke 20:1–8 “They knew perfectly well, and they knew perfectly well when they had rejected John’s ministry. That was the trouble with them. God never condemns men for ignorance. God’s judgments are upon men who, having the light, disobey it.” —G. Campbell Morgan You were created on purpose, and you were created for a purpose. God loves you. He is the ultimate authority. There will come a day when God asks you,“What did you do with my Son?” Read Luke 20:9–19 (NKJV) Stewards, Not OwnersLuke 20:9–19 The Son they wanted to get rid of was the same Son who would rise again from the dead. Psalm 24:1 (NKJV)The earth is the LORD's, and all its fullness,The world and those who dwell therein. Job 1:21 (NKJV)"Naked I came from my mother's womb, and naked shall I return there.The LORD gave, and the LORD has taken away;Blessed be the name of the LORD." Read Luke 20:20–26 (NKJV) Image BearersLuke 20:20–26 Luke 20:25 (NKJV)"Render therefore to Caesar the things that are Caesar's, and to God the things that are God's." Genesis 1:27 (NKJV)So God created man in His own image; in the image of God He created him; male and female He created them. Job 1:21 (NKJV)"Naked I came from my mother's womb, and naked shall I return there.The LORD gave, and the LORD has taken away;Blessed be the name of the LORD." “I didn’t thank God that it happened. In fact, I would have given anything to have Christopher back. I would have gladly taken his place. But I wasn’t given that choice. So, I simply said, ‘Lord, he is Yours. I dedicated him to You when he was a little boy, and I dedicate him back to You.’” —Greg Laurie — Become a Harvest Partner today and join us in knowing God and making Him known through media and large-scale evangelism, our mission of over 30 years.

Transcribe →When Nothing Feels Like Enough: The Secret to Contentment
6d ago00:36:18Tap to summarizeWe think if we had a nicer car, or a bigger house, or a larger salary, or a new face, or new body, then we’d be content. But Max Lucado says: “The good life begins not when circumstances change but when our attitude toward them does.” And writing to the Christians in Philippi, the apostle Paul said, “Not that I was ever in need, for I have learned how to be content with whatever I have. I know how to live on almost nothing or with everything. I have learned the secret of living in every situation, whether it is with a full stomach or empty, with plenty or little.” (Philippians 4:11–12 NLT). Paul was in difficult circumstances when he wrote these words. He wasn’t spouting theories from an ivory tower. He was under house arrest, writing from the school of hard knocks. Yet Paul found contentment because he rejoiced in the Lord. Earlier in Philippians 4, he wrote, "Rejoice in the Lord always. Again I will say, rejoice!" (verse 4 NKJV). He didn’t say that we should rejoice in circumstances. Sometimes that’s hard to do. But Paul did say that we should rejoice in the Lord.

Transcribe →The First Jesus Movement | Living on Mission
1w ago00:27:24Tap to summarizeBefore Covid, few of us had ever been subjected to a quarantine. But that experience effectively isolated us in a bubble. In a spiritual sense, sometimes believers are constantly isolated from the world in a self-imposed quarantine. We don’t want to be OF the world so we try not to be IN the world. Today on A NEW BEGINNING, Pastor Greg Laurie points out how that neglects one of our most important responsibilities. It’s the kick off of a new series in Acts called The Upside-Down Life. — Become a Harvest Partner today and join us in knowing God and making Him known through media and large-scale evangelism, our mission of over 30 years.

Transcribe →The Refreshing Power of the Word of God | The Book for Life
1w ago00:24:27Tap to summarizeAccording to one survey, only 5% of people read owners’ manuals. Maybe that’s why one lady called Kitchen Aid to ask which was the best spin cycle in her clothes washer for drying her lettuce. And then wanted to know why her clothes were turning green. Well, we have an owner’s manual for life – the Bible. But so many leave it on the shelf. Today on A NEW BEGINNING, Pastor Greg Laurie helps us recognize the Bible for what it is – it’s a book that gives the prescription for life. — Become a Harvest Partner today and join us in knowing God and making Him known through media and large-scale evangelism, our mission of over 30 years.

1w ago00:25:31Tap to summarizeEver been so hungry you felt weak? Not just hunger pangs, not just in a “hangry” mood. You actually felt sluggish and powerless. Food is at the top of your mind. Well, we can start to feel weak spiritually . . . but so many times our spiritual food ISN’T at the top of our minds. Today on A NEW BEGINNING, Pastor Greg Laurie points out just what God’s Word does for the weary traveler on the road of life. We’ll see it gives us actual power for living.
