God's Solution to Man's Problem | Controlling Your Thoughts May 17, 2024

Show notes

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.

Trouble in Paradise | Victory Through Christ May 16, 2024

Show notes

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.

Trouble in Paradise | How to Fight Temptation May 15, 2024

Show notes

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.

Trouble in Paradise | The Creation of Marriage May 14, 2024

Show notes

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.

God's Purpose for Us | Wonder or Wander? It's Your Choice. May 13, 2024

Show notes

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.

Don’t Be Afraid! | Sunday Message May 12, 2024

Show notes

Psalm 27 offers us comforting words, “The Lord is my light and my salvation—so why should I be afraid?” In today’s message, Pastor Greg Laurie helps us study this Psalm, revealing the power it holds. Find the biblical wisdom you need.

Notes:

People’s number one fear is glossophobia.
We need to face our fears.
Deal with your giants, because either you conquer them, or they will conquer you.
“The LORD is my light and my salvation; whom shall I fear?
The LORD is the strength of my life; of whom shall I be afraid?”
Psalm 27:1
Faith overcomes fear.
When faith walks in, worry walks out; but when worry steps in, faith walks out.
The Christian life is not a cakewalk; it’s a conflict—it’s not a playground; it’s a battleground.
There will always be something to potentially worry about.
When you are afraid in the dark, turn on the light.
Psalm 27:1
Anxious notions come sweeping into our mind, uninvited and unwelcome.
But the presence of our heavenly Father can dispel all fear, worry, and anxiety.
Face your fears in God’s strength, not your own.
Psalm 27:1
God is bigger than your enemies.
Psalm 27:2–3
God promises to keep us safe in His protection.
Psalm 27:5
God will never allow anything to touch us that He does not allow, and He certainly will never let anything happen that would separate us from His love for us.
God either did it or allowed it for His glory and our ultimate good.
Romans 8:38
David knew that the main thing was to keep the main thing the main thing!
Psalm 27:4–5
A danger in life is to permit the urgent things to crowd out the important things.
If we don’t focus on that one thing, we will end up doing everything, and accomplish nothing.
Read: Psalm 27:8–10
You have a Father in Heaven who loves you and always has time for you.
God promises to be a Father to the fatherless.
Your heavenly Father will never abandon you.
Psalm 27:9
Take courage and continue to follow the Lord.
Psalm 27:13–14

God's Purpose for Us | Understanding God's Plan for Mankind May 10, 2024

Show notes

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 into 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.

The Refreshing Power of the Word of God | Guidance From God's Word May 09, 2024

Show notes

According 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: a book that gives the prescription for life.

The Refreshing Power of the Word of God | Hungry for God's Word May 08, 2024

Show notes

Ever 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. And we shouldn’t deprive ourselves.
