Greg Laurie Podcast

Whether you’re a woodworker, a steel worker or in another form of construction, you know that, the tougher the job, the more the need for power tools. Hard to build a skyscraper with just a tape measure and a good idea. Well, spiritually speaking, with some of our assignments, the Lord gives US power tools. And today on A NEW BEGINNING, Pastor Greg Laurie points out the importance of putting them to work. It’s part of his series in the book of Acts called The Upside-Down Life.

The Lord has many options for reaching us in a time of need. Certainly one of the most obvious and most important is the local church. In a crisis, help may be as close as the church down the street. And today on A NEW BEGINNING, Pastor Greg Laurie helps us learn from the early Church. As we study the Book of Acts today, we’ll see they set the example for reaching out with the care and concern of Jesus Christ . . . and they provide us an opportunity to serve—to give as we’ve received.

Christianity is a worldwide faith. Some say over 31% are Christians the world over. Yet, if you rewind history, Christianity began in a small geographic area on the other side of the globe, with just a handful of followers. How in the world did they reach the world!? Today on A NEW BEGINNING, Pastor Greg Laurie brings us some good insight from the book of Acts that’ll help us encourage one another in the faith, and reach our world in our time with the love of Christ.

Pastor Jonathan Laurie shares what a true friendship looks like to the godly person. Notes: “David did not know the rest of his story, he just knew that God was writing it, and it would ultimately be good. God has a future for you, too. Until that day, remember, ‘Our times are in His hands.’” —Pastor Greg Remember that we can always trust an unknown future to a known God. “True Friendship” 1 Samuel / Psalms 1 Samuel 18:1–4 1. A good friend is one who recognizes God’s Will. 1 Samuel 18:1–4 / Psalm 37:4–7 1 Samuel 20:30–33 “A dead thing can go with the stream, but only a living thing can go against it.” —G.K. Chesterton Psalm 37:4–7 Matthew 6:33 If something makes you forget about God or not want to spend time with Him, you need to deny yourself of it … no matter how good you may think it is. Mark 8:36 2. A good friend is one who builds each other up. 1 Samuel 23:15–18 / Psalm 27:1–3, 14 Psalm 27:1–3 3. A good friend is one who is sacrificial. 1 Samuel 18:1–4 / Psalm 22 Sacrificial love is a type of love that is willing to deny itself, to put itself in harm’s way to get you to safety.

When God wanted to share His message of love, surprisingly He chose to use people to reach people. Flawed, fallible, foible-filled people. Ahh, but the power of the message is not in us messengers, it’s built in to the message. And the boldness and direction we need is built in to us by the Spirit who lives within us. Pastor Greg Laurie discusses that today on A NEW BEGINNING as he continues a message from his brand new series in Acts – a series called The Upside-Down Life.

Whether it’s a small folk group or a large orchestra, beautiful music comes when everyone plays together in rhythm and harmony. If each is playing a different tune, they have a word for that: yuck! Today on A NEW BEGINNING, Pastor Greg Laurie points out the importance of unity in our efforts to bring the gospel to our generation. In a time of division and disunity in the culture, it’s more important than ever that we all come together “in one accord,” as the Bible puts it.

Before Covid, few of us had ever been subjected to a quarantine. But that experience effectively isolated us in a bubble. In a spiritual sense, sometimes believers are constantly isolated from the world in a self-imposed quarantine. We don’t want to be OF the world so we try not to be IN the world. Today on A NEW BEGINNING, Pastor Greg Laurie points out how that neglects one of our most important responsibilities. It’s the kick off of a new series in Acts called The Upside-Down Life.

Ever try to run up a downward escalator? Sounds silly, but kids try it all the time, just to see if they can.

Today on A NEW BEGINNING, Pastor Greg Laurie helps us change escalators and embrace the power and provision of God through prayer. When we’re moving in the same direction as the Spirit of God, the journey is much easier.
