The Plot Thickens | What’s Truly Beautiful Sep 08, 2025

Show notes

Millions of young girls wish they could look like the models they see on magazine covers. Here’s a little secret. The models themselves wish they looked like what they see on magazine covers. The pictures have been “enhanced” by a graphic artist. Today on A NEW BEGINNING, Pastor Greg Laurie helps us all set our sights on what’s real. We’ll look to a real-life example of beauty, grace and godliness as we study the book of Esther. And Pastor Greg also reflects on the life of Dr. Billy Graham.

Going Forward | Sunday Message (Pastor Jonathan Laurie) Sep 07, 2025

Show notes

The moment you think you’ve “made it” is the moment you risk drifting backward—forward momentum is essential for every Christian. Today, Pastor Jonathan Laurie shares how returning to the basics keeps you spiritually grounded and thriving.

Notes:

Focus verse - Philippians 3:7–21

#1 Forward Is Fundamental
Philippians 3:12 (NLT)
I don't mean to say that I have already achieved these things or that I have already reached perfection. But I press on to possess that perfection for which Christ Jesus first possessed me.
Acts 2:42 (NKJV)
And they continued steadfastly in the apostles' doctrine and fellowship,
in the breaking of bread, and in prayers.
We will never outgrow the fundamentals:
Read your Bible
Pray
Go to church
Share your faith
These are the weapons of our spiritual warfare.
The same basics that started your walk will sustain your walk.
#2 Forward Requires Focus
Philippians 3:13 (NLT)
No, dear brothers and sisters, I have not achieved it, but I focus on this one thing: Forgetting the past and looking forward to what lies ahead,
Hebrews 12:1–2 (NLT)
Keeping our eyes on Jesus.
Paul said, “This one thing I do… I press on. I forget the things behind me.”
Philippians 3:13–14
Habakkuk 3:18 (NLT)
Yet I will rejoice in the LORD! I will be joyful in the God of my salvation!
#3 Forward Means Action
Philippians 3:14 (NLT)
I press on to reach the end of the race and receive the heavenly prize for which God, through Christ Jesus, is calling us.
Philippians 3:15 (NLT)
Let all who are spiritually mature agree on these things. If you disagree on some point, I believe God will make it plain to you.
Proverbs 4:25–27 (NLT)
Get into a small group.
Sign up to volunteer.
Give with generosity.
Share your faith.

For Such a Time as This | A True Biblical Hero Sep 05, 2025

Show notes

We’ve all heard the phrase “for such a time as this.” Today, we begin a study of where it comes from. Glad you’re along for A NEW BEGINNING today as Pastor Greg Laurie begins a study of courage in the face of danger, and of God’s providence when the odds are stacked against us. It concerns a young woman named Esther who was chosen to be queen . . . but more importantly how God chose her to help bring deliverance to the Jewish people. It’s a fascinating study of a true biblical hero.

Jesus & The Great Commission | A Spiritual How-To Sep 04, 2025

Show notes

Ever searched YouTube for how-to help and found some guy fixing a leaky faucet with nothing but a sock and a taco shell? Somehow, it worked, and you watched the whole thing. Why? Because we learn by watching someone else do it first. Today on A NEW BEGINNING, Pastor Greg Laurie explains it’s the same with the Christian life. We help people find Jesus, and show them how to follow Him. Think of this as your spiritual “how-to” video… no taco shell required.

Jesus & The Great Commission | Called to Speak Up Sep 03, 2025

Show notes

The number one reason believers don’t share their faith is fear: “What if I offend that person? What if it changes the relationship?” Would we be concerned about that if their home was on fire and they were in danger? Well, the Gospel saves people from a very real eternal danger. Today on A NEW BEGINNING, Pastor Greg Laurie helps us see how Jesus Himself directed us to spread the word far and wide. Someone’s eternity could literally hang in the balance if we don’t.

Jesus & The Pretender | From Betrayal to the Cross Sep 02, 2025

Show notes

Jesus was arrested and subjected to unjust trials before the Jewish leaders and Roman governor Pilate. Though found innocent, He was sentenced to death to appease the crowd. Jesus was scourged, mocked, and forced to carry His cross to Golgotha. There, He was crucified between two criminals, ultimately dying to pay the penalty for our sin. And today on A NEW BEGINNING, Pastor Greg Laurie shows us it all began with betrayal ... by one of His own disciples.

Jesus & The Pretender | Beware the Wolf in Disguise Sep 01, 2025

Show notes

We’ve all heard the phrase, “wolf in sheep’s clothing.” Someone who seems harmless and pleasant, maybe even trustworthy, but who really is a hidden danger. These kind of people can be anywhere – classmates, co-workers, church members. Today on A NEW BEGINNING, Pastor Greg Laurie helps us understand these people, and be on our guard. We’ll consider one such individual who wound up in the Lord’s inner circle. He was a fake, a fraud . . . but also an Apostle.

The Power of Prayer in Times of Crisis Aug 30, 2025

Show notes

Does prayer really make a difference in times of crisis? Those who criticize prayer could not be more mistaken. Even through the heartbreak of life, prayer is important and holds power—Jesus Himself prayed as He was crucified!

In today's podcast, Pastor Greg Laurie takes us to Acts 12, a time the church faced a real threat from Herod and responded with prayer. See how we can follow their lead, whether facing a personal or national crisis.
