Jesus on Worship May 04, 2026

Show notes

Biblical worship is far more than music or personal expression; it is God's people responding rightly to who He is and what He has done. Examining Jesus' teaching in John 4 alongside the Hundredth Psalm and the devotion of the woman at Bethany, Alistair Begg explains what it means to worship God in spirit and truth with joyful, heartfelt, and sacrificial devotion. True worship, he reminds us, is centered on God's glory, shaped by His Word, and made possible through the work of Christ and the Holy Spirit.

An Army Bold May 03, 2026

Show notes

When the apostles Peter and John were released from custody after being arrested for proclaiming the Gospel, their fellow believers responded in prayer. Acts 4 records this prayer, which provides Christians of any era with a pattern for how to pray. In this message, Alistair Begg unpacks the early believers' prayer, demonstrating how it was communal, theological, scriptural, and purposeful—and challenges believers today to rely on prayer and the Holy Spirit as they live faithfully in a culture increasingly resistant to the Gospel.

Abounding Hope Apr 20, 2026

Jesus performed many miracles, from casting out demons to healing various diseases and cleansing leprous men. So why, then, did He first tell a paralytic with an obvious need for physical healing that his sins were forgiven? Alistair Begg helps us to understand that the physical dimension of what Jesus did in people's lives was not His most significant work; rather, it was what He did at the heart level that met their greatest need—just as it does ours.

Planting the Vision Apr 08, 2026

After learning of the sorry state of Jerusalem's walls, Nehemiah responded with prayerful dependence, careful preparation, and quiet assessment before calling others to act. As Alistair Begg points out, his leadership combined trust in God's sovereignty with practical wisdom and courage in the face of opposition. Through Nehemiah's example, we're reminded that God's work advances through ordinary people who rely on Him, persevere through discouragement, and unite around a shared, God-given purpose.

Hard-Pressed but Not Crushed Apr 08, 2026

While all Scripture is inspired, not all Scripture is equally inspiring. When we read the long list of names in Nehemiah 3, we might be prone to wonder at its purpose. As Alistair Begg reminds us, though, God's work requires the unified, active participation of those whose names will largely be forgotten, each contributing their part within a larger purpose. And as chapter 4 makes plain, while opposition to such work is inevitable, leaders must commit to meeting it with prayer, vigilance, and trust in God.

A Lesson in Leadership Apr 08, 2026

Show notes

After overseeing the reconstruction of Jerusalem's walls and the restoration of the people's right worship, Nehemiah returned to Susa. When he later came back to Jerusalem, what he found was distressing: The people had embraced unhelpful associations, unfulfilled commitments, unkept promises, and unholy marriages. Alistair Begg walks us through each of these issues in turn, helping us to see why they mattered, how Nehemiah confronted them, and how they are mirrored in the problems confronting today's church and its leaders.

The Pathway to God’s Plan Mar 04, 2026

Show notes

The opening verses of Romans 12 point to the fact that discerning God's good, pleasing, and perfect will begins with wholehearted surrender to Him. Alistair Begg explains that as believers grounded in God's mercy, we are called to offer ourselves as living sacrifices, resist conformity to the spirit of the age, and pursue inward transformation through the Holy Spirit's renewing work. The Christian life, he reminds us, is a journey of lasting obedience, built on the trust that God's purpose is to make His people increasingly like Christ.

Going Up, Looking Back, Keeping On Mar 04, 2026

Show notes

Psalm 126, one of the Psalms of Ascent, traces the pilgrim song of God's people through three movements: going up, looking back, and keeping on. Reflecting on Israel's restoration from exile, Alistair Begg shows how joyful remembrance of God's past faithfulness fuels present perseverance and future hope. The psalm's tension between remembered blessing and ongoing need points ultimately to Christ, who satisfies the soul's deepest thirst and leads His people onward toward the new Jerusalem, where God's presence will dwell fully with His redeemed people.
