He did the unthinkable, but we’ll see the Lord responded with the unexpected. Spiritual failure came face to face with divine mercy.

Some of the most encouraging words in the Bible are found in the Psalms. They’re heart felt, they deal with expressions of joy, and of sorrow.

We all have friends and acquaintances. Some acquaintances may be a friend of a friend, so we don’t know them very well. We may even know a friend of a friend of a friend. . . your next door neighbor’s aunt’s gardener’s sister. God knows each one of us individually. And He wants a close friendship with each of us. Today on A NEW BEGINNING, Pastor Greg Laurie points out how that intimacy forms the bedrock for our redemption, and for the way God cares and provides for us.

We’ll learn about that today on A NEW BEGINNING as Pastor Greg Laurie continues our studies in the Psalms. We’ll get a good lesson on forgiveness, mercy and grace.
