Greg Laurie: A New Beginning

In this special (throwback) discussion with Cathe Laurie, Brittni Laurie, and Tiffany Velasquez, Pastor Greg Laurie asks what mothers need to feel appreciated and what we should see as the primary goals of motherhood. 

In a study, 85 percent of millennial mothers report wanting to be reassured that they are doing a good job. Pastor Greg asks whether this is true, and how families can express their gratitude in words and deeds ...

Have you ever looked up into the starry sky on a clear night? You’re awestruck at the vastness of outer space. If that weren’t awesome enough, God created the heavens and the earth with just the power of His Word. You think He might be able to handle the problem on your mind right now? Today on A NEW BEGINNING, Pastor Greg Laurie brings us good encouragement about trusting God to get us through. We&r...

Believers are drawn to worship. Love compels us. But we’re also drawn to God when life gives us nowhere else to go. When trials bring us to our knees, that’s the perfect position to pray. We can waste time focusing on “why” . . . asking why it happened. But today on A NEW BEGINNING, Pastor Greg Laurie points us to “Who” . . . Who is the One who has the power and the desire to ...

We live in an age of compromise, concession and appeasement. The culture would have us look the other way in the face of wrong-doing. Just go along to get along. What’s that they say . . . people who don’t stand for something will fall for anything. Today on A NEW BEGINNING, Pastor Greg Laurie urges us to be courageous in our walk with the Lord. We have the good news that leads to eternal life. We ca...

More than 80% of Generation Z kids say they’re stressed out. 4 out of 5. 1 in 3 adults lose sleep over their finances. And nearly three quarters fear the future. Is that the way God wants us to live? Today on A NEW BEGINNING, Pastor Greg Laurie brings us a biblical antidote for the anxiety that grips our hearts. We’ll follow the example of a reluctant warrior in the Old Testament and see how the same...

There’s a famous poem about defiant independence featuring phrases like “I am the master of my fate, I am the captain of my soul.” The Lord probably finds that poem pretty funny. The Bible says the earth is God’s footstool. And He hears a wee, little voice say I am the captain of my soul. Today on A NEW BEGINNING, Pastor Greg Laurie brings us a fresh perspective from Jacob’s attempt...

The first known excuse in human history is found in Genesis with Adam. We all have excuses for doing, or not doing, something. But Pastor Greg points out that underneath it all is simply, “I don’t want to.” What excuses are you handing God?

God invented marriage—and we need to get back to the original template. 

In a world full of hot takes, shifting expectations, and “whatever works” advice, it’s easy to absorb the culture’s story about marriage without realizing it. But Scripture takes us back to the beginning: God’s original design, God’s purpose, and God’s pathway for a marriage that’s resilient and center...

God gave us free will. And what a risky gift that is. Sure, it’s fine when the biggest choice is coffee or tea . . . sneakers or sandals. But what happens when our will collides with God’s will? Today on A NEW BEGINNING, Pastor Greg Laurie takes on the danger of saying, “Thanks, God, but I’ve got this.” He’ll walk us through the story of an Old Testament character who wanted t...

Sin can have lethal consequences! God had a rescue plan from the very beginning, but that plan required His Son to give His own life so that we could live. Jesus’ death wasn’t a good plan gone bad . . . it was God’s perfect plan to redeem imperfect man. Today on A NEW BEGINNING, Pastor Greg Laurie shows us how the plan of Redemption is the ultimately example of God’s love and providence f...

Ever walk up to an order counter and not a soul pays attention to you? You clear your throat . . . you utter a polite “excuse me” . . . nothing. Some people think they get the same response when they call on God. Silence. Today on A NEW BEGINNING, Pastor Greg Laurie points out that God hears our prayers, He cares about our needs, and He never stops working on our behalf. Even when it seems like nothi...

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 ...

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 w...

There are things that own us—whether obviously or silently. Fears, discontentment, the opinions of others… But Jesus reminds us that God is the One who should own our lives. And when we allow Him to, we find real freedom.

And today on A NEW BEGINNING, Pastor Greg Laurie shows us it all began with betrayal ... by one ...

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&rsqu...

The more we believe a warning, the more it changes our actions. If the car makes a funny noise, we think, “Hmm, that’s odd.” Now, the elevator makes a funny noise and our adrenaline immediately starts flowing. Today on A NEW BEGINNING, Pastor Greg Laurie brings us words of insight and warning about what’s to come during God’s Last Days plan. It’s information that gets us excited, but it’s i...

A lot of big things have happened in our world recently. In the last weeks, months, and even a few years, we’ve seen earth-shaking developments, many of which seemed to pop up overnight.

And today on A NEW BEGINNING, Pastor Greg Laurie answers our questions and gives us the reassurance we nee...

It’s a question baked in to the human condition. People have been asking it for millennia: “What happens after we die?” So many contemplate, speculate, postulate, and hyperventilate over the topic. Today, Pastor Greg Laurie simply extrapolates what God has already told us on the subject. Glad you’re along for A NEW BEGINNING as we pull back the curtain to see what’s waiting for us in eternity. Comforti...
