Greg Laurie Podcast

Wouldn’t it be a remarkable world if everyone tried to out-give one another? If we saw someone in need, we automatically took care of it. We were always looking for ways to help. But we don’t live in a culture of givers, it seems like we live in a culture of takers.Today on A NEW BEGINNING, Pastor Greg Laurie helps us see how a spirit of generosity is part of the prescription for living a more meaningful life. We’re considering the Apostle Paul’s counsel about living in a way that honors God. Listen on harvest.org --- Learn more and subscribe to Harvest updates at harvest.org .

In any gym, there are people there who are just getting it done . . . a certain number of reps, a certain duration of time, and – whew! – they’re done, and they’re gone. And there are others who push themselves, and they give it their all! And it shows. Today on A NEW BEGINNING, Pastor Greg Laurie points out, this life is too important to muddle through. The Lord wants us to run this race with endurance, and to run this race to win. We’ll learn more about how to do that in Acts.

Pastor Greg Laurie describes the theme of this message as “what happens when we don't follow the warning?” He takes us into Adam and Eve's story, where we get important takeaways on mankind's shortcomings. Notes: Genesis 4 The theme of this message is, “What happens when we don't follow the warning?” Genesis 3:6 Every temptation in life fits into three categories. 1 John 2:15–16 The Lust of the Flesh: Things that feel good. Genesis 3:6 The Lust of the Eyes: Things that look good. Genesis 3:6 The Pride of Life: Things that make you feel and look good. Genesis 3:6 The pride of life is an obsession with self. The world with its allure is the eternal foe. The flesh with its evil desires is the internal foe. Satan with his enticements is the infernal foe. Mark 2:21 God called out, “Where are you?” Genesis 3:10–13 Adam blamed God for what he himself had done. Genesis 3:12 We play a role in our own temptation and sin. Jeremiah 17:9 Because of Adam’s sin, we all suffer. Romans 5:12 Read: Genesis 4:1–7 The book of Genesis can be divided into three sections: Chapters 1–2: Generation, Chapters 3–11: Degeneration, and Chapters 12–50: Regeneration. Mankind wrecks everything he touches! Being exposed to truth does not guarantee you follow it. The heart of the matter is the matter of the heart! Hebrews 11:4 God wanted confession because that is the way to forgiveness! God gave Cain a warning. The Devil is always looking for trouble. Job 1:7 Ephesians 4:26–27 Sin is crouching at our doors, too! Shakespeare called envy the “green-eyed monster.” Jealously and envy are powerful and destructive sins we often underestimate. Envy has been described as a small-town sin that breeds in proximity. “The wicked envy and hate; it is their way of admiring.” —Victor Hugo Genesis 3:14–15 The Bible tells us Jesus was, “slain from the foundation of the world.” --- Learn more about Greg Laurie and Harvest Ministries at harvest.org.

Some people come to Christ instantly, as soon as they hear the Gospel. It’s the miracle of a moment. Others resist that decision for decades, until one day they realize their need for Christ. Sometimes it’s a crisis or tragedy that brings them to that point, other times it’s as though their eyes suddenly opened. Today on A NEW BEGINNING, Pastor Greg Laurie shows us the miraculous conversion of a certain Philippian jailer . . . a conversion that would sweep through his entire family.

We like to put our best foot forward. It’s a cultural thing. We keep certain things to ourselves. If we’ve just bounced a check, or we’re in over our head at work, or there’s relationship stress – we stay silent on those subjects. But today on A NEW BEGINNING, Pastor Greg Laurie points out, when Jesus makes His home in our hearts, we give Him permission to explore the hidden issues we’re keeping to ourselves . . . yeah, including the one you’re thinking about right now. Let’s get some good encouragement. Listen on harvest.org --- Learn more and subscribe to Harvest updates at harvest.org .

In so many arguments, as one person is making her point, the other person is formulating his response. He’s not really hearing her point, he’s preparing his counterpoint.

But if it does, today on A NEW BEGINNING, Pastor Greg Laurie helps us learn to resolve conflict by following an example we see in Scripture. Today, practical help for everyone.

Disagreement and conflict is almost inevitable in human relationships. When that happens, some people put up their fists . . . others call up their lawyer. Others look up the Proverb that says a soft answer turns away wrath. In the big picture, those moments can either undergird our efforts to share Christ, or undermine them. Today on A NEW BEGINNING, Pastor Greg Laurie helps us deal with everyone in a spirit of grace and humility. We’re in Acts chapter 15.

In Genesis 2, we get a close look at the events that occurred in the Garden of Eden. We get to focus on the relationship between God and man. Pastor Greg Laurie shares valuable points from this book today.  Notes: Genesis 2/Genesis 3 Elohim is the appropriate word to portray God as the Majestic Creator. Yahweh is the personal name God uses when dealing with humanity. Read: Genesis 2:7–9 God created man and breathed life into him. The word, “breathed,” is warmly personal. Genesis 2:7 Eden means, “delight.” God placed man in a real place called, Eden. Eden was hand-made by God Himself, untouched by sin and death, perfect. Adam was tasked with naming the animals. Genesis 2:20 Read: Genesis 2:18, 21–25 God created woman and brought her to the man. The word, “helper,” does not imply inferiority; it’s the same term God uses to describe Himself as a helper to His people. God establishes the family and the home: A man and a woman. To have a successful marriage, you must both leave other relationships. Genesis 2:24 To have a successful marriage, the couple must cleave together. Cleave means, “to glue, to cling.” Marriage is a picture of Christ and the church! 1 Corinthians 7:32–33 Our greatest needs are not fulfilled in marriage but in Jesus! Read: Genesis 3:1–9 The devil undermines in four ways. Satan questioned God’s Word. “Has God, indeed, said?” Satan added to God’s Word. Genesis 3:3 God never said, “Neither shall you touch it.” Satan questioned God’s love. Satan denied God’s Word. Satan substituted his own lie. Every temptation can be resisted and overcome. James 1:12 Genesis 3:8 God wanted Adam to admit to and confess his sin. --- Learn more about Greg Laurie and Harvest Ministries at harvest.org.
