Greg Laurie Podcast

It would seem that it’s easy to be content when things are going well . . . and it’s easy to be discontented when life has brought us to our knees. But is our contentment always tied to our circumstances? Pastor Greg Laurie would remind us that some of Paul’s most encouraging words were written from a dank, dark prison cell. Today on A NEW BEGINNING, Pastor Greg helps us see how to have a spirit of contentment no matter what life throws our way. It’s part of his series called Worldview.

If you’ve run out of things to worry about, just turn on the news. It’s one crisis after another, 24 hours a day. The old saying in the news business is, “if it bleeds, it leads.” But the Lord calls us to set our minds on things above. And today on A NEW BEGINNING, Pastor Greg Laurie shows us why. When we’ve made our peace with God, it’s so easy to enjoy the peace of God. Pastor Greg shows us how to enjoy a biblical worldview that’s not mired in worry and fear.

Author Erma Bombeck was quoted as saying “Worry is like a rocking chair. It gives you something to do, but doesn’t get you anywhere.” Matthew 6:27 is pretty frank: “Can all your worries add a single moment to your life?” Today on A NEW BEGINNING, Pastor Greg Laurie helps us overcome fear and worry. In a new series, we’re learning to adopt a biblical worldview . . . and we’ll learn today, that worldview doesn’t include worry. We’ll see worry and faith are mutually exclusive.

Where does your electricity come from in your home? The electric company, right? You’re connected directly. Your neighbor is connected directly. You’re not running an extension cord over to the neighbor’s to power up your lights. (At least I hope not.) Well, we each need a direct spiritual connection to our Heavenly Father. And today on A NEW BEGINNING, Pastor Greg Laurie points out how that sheds light on Paul’s injunction to “work out our own salvation.” Glad you’re along today for Pastor Greg’s Worldview Series.

There are many steps we take in the Christian life—some that move us forward, some that move us backward. Church is one of those things that moves us ahead. Yet, some of us still refuse to make it a priority. Pastor Jonathan Laurie helps us see church from a biblical view and why that step into church matters so much… Notes: Focus verses: Acts 2, Romans 12 Read: Acts 2:42–47 Church is not all about you. Church is all about God and His glory. Psalm 103:1–5 Hebrews 10:24–25 The church exists for the upward glorification of God, the inward edification of the saints, and for the outward evangelization of the world. Matthew 16:18 “Church is a new society called out from society at large to be God's people.” –Skip Heitzig Read: Romans 12:3–12 1 Corinthians 12:22–25 Take the “Where to Serve” quiz at harvest.church/where-to-serve-quiz God chooses to work through the church to change the world. --- Learn more about Greg Laurie and Harvest Ministries at harvest.org.

We live in the information age. Facts and figures fly at us faster than we can absorb. And opinions, suppositions, rumors and innuendos come screaming at us from every form of media—especially social media. Where do we find an escape? Today on A NEW BEGINNING, Pastor Greg Laurie points out our respite is right in the pages of God’s Word. Not only do we find solace, we find the soothing salve of Scripture. Today, let’s ponder on things above.

How many prodigals does the Bible tell us about? Well, most Bible students would say one. Pastor Greg Laurie has pointed out before that the prodigal son had an older brother who could also be considered a prodigal. So . . . two? Would you believe there may be three prodigals in the Bible? Today on A NEW BEGINNING, Pastor Greg points out that Jonah could be considered the prodigal prophet. But when he turned his life around, he helped an entire city turnaround and come to God.

Ever made a wrong turn and ended up going the wrong way on a one way street? Things don’t go well, do they? People are honking, shouting, waving their arms. Not usually smiling either. Seems kind of hostile. Well . . . things don’t go well when we go the wrong way in our faith either. People seem hostile . . . or maybe it’s us. Today on A NEW BEGINNING, Pastor Greg Laurie shows us the effects of Jonah going in the wrong direction.

They say the best form of advertising is word of mouth. When one person tells another about his experience, it’s very persuasive. Well, that form of expression was around long before Madison Avenue brought it to radio and TV. The Lord invited us to tell others what He’s done for us. And today on A NEW BEGINNING, Pastor Greg Laurie shows us what we can learn on this issue from the prophet who ran from God—Jonah. We’ll see, when Jonah finally turned around, so did an entire city!

Some people are so easy to get along with, you can’t not like them. Know what I mean? Then there are others . . . Well, let’s just say there are others. How eager are you to share Christ with those who are less likeable? How about someone who makes you uneasy . . . or someone who intimidates you? Or someone whose lifestyle is so unlike yours? Today on A NEW BEGINNING, Pastor Greg Laurie helps us see how God’s love can help us go where our comfort zone leaves off.
