May 26, 2026: An Army Bold

May 26, 2026

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...

May 15, 2026: The Pathway to God’s Plan

May 15, 2026

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...

May 8, 2026: Going Up, Looking Back, Keeping On

May 8, 2026

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 satisfi...

May 1, 2026: The Ministry of Reminder

May 1, 2026

The first five verses of 2 Timothy 4 encapsulate Paul’s concern for the ongoing ministry of the Gospel. At this point in his letter, Paul has reminded Timothy that he must continue in the Gospel himself and that the Scriptures are divinely inspired. Now, as Alistair Begg explains, Paul turns Timothy’s attention to the solemn charge, stirring challenge, and straightforward and vitally important commitment that are intrin...

April 28, 2026: A Lesson in Leadership

April 28, 2026

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 Nehem...

April 27, 2026: Hard-Pressed but Not Crushed

April 27, 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 inevi...

April 20, 2026: Abounding Hope

April 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 greates...

April 17, 2026: Planting the Vision

April 17, 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 peopl...

March 27, 2026: Dangers and Delights of Pastoral Ministry

March 27, 2026

According to one Barna study, the average pastor lasts only five years at a given church—often leaving just when, statistically speaking, he would be approaching his greatest period of usefulness. In a world of such short pastoral tenures, what does it look like to minister in the same place for not just years but decades? In this informal talk to pastors, Alistair Begg reflects on his forty-two years of pastoral ministry at ...

March 20, 2026: Proclaiming Boldly, Suffering Bravely

March 20, 2026

While an approach to Christianity that treats it as a soft option may sound attractive, it’s certainly not scriptural. Truly biblical discipleship is muscular, demanding, and thoughtful. The apostle Paul made this clear to Timothy as he urged him to proclaim the Gospel boldly and to suffer for it bravely. In this conference message, Alistair Begg examines the three word pictures Paul used to clarify the believer’s daily...
