Ever drive away from home and had that nagging feeling you might have left the stove on? Or you forgot to lock a door? Or you left a curling iron plugged in?

Well today on A NEW BEGINNING, Pastor Greg Laurie helps us check ourselves when it comes to the sincerity of our faith in Christ. When it comes to matters of eternity, “close enough” . . . isn’t close enough. Listen on harvest.org --- Learn more and subscribe to Harvest updates at harvest.org .

Trying to live a godly life in an ungodly world can seem like we’re trying to walk up a downward escalator. The culture is trying to drag believers right into a quagmire of hopeless humanism and angry atheism. But God has a plan. Today on A NEW BEGINNING, Pastor Greg Laurie helps us revisit one of the most exciting stories of the Old Testament when a single prophet of God confronts 850 feckless false prophets and watches God’s plan unfold Listen on harvest.org --- Learn more and subscribe to Harvest updates at harvest.org .

Sometimes, it can seem as though we’re swimming against the current in our life of faith. If it isn’t opposition and even persecution for what we believe, it’s challenges in health, or finances, or relationships. How do we get through? How have others made it? Today on A NEW BEGINNING, Pastor Greg Laurie points to the Apostle Paul as our inspiration. We’re in the book of Acts considering the trial upon trial Paul faced, but the word of encouragement that pulled him through.

Many people feel they just can’t function in the morning without their cup of coffee. But, long ago, coffee met with grumpy, nearly global opposition for hundreds of years! (They were grumpy ‘cause they hadn’t had their coffee). People oppose lots of things, but then come to embrace them warmly. And today on A NEW BEGINNING, Pastor Greg Laurie points out how we need to realize that people need the message we share, and we need to find the courage to share it even in the face of opposition.

Pastor Greg Laurie introduces a fresh series, "It All Starts Here," where we explore the Book of Genesis. In this first message, he focuses on God's purpose for us while helping us understand other topics, such as the creation of the world.  Notes: Genesis 1 We are created on purpose and for a purpose. God has a plan and purpose for you. Acts 13:36 We need to know and fulfill our purpose. Romans 8:28 Genesis means, “beginning.” The book of Genesis begins with God. Genesis 1:1 Since God created the heavens and the Earth, He is more than adequate to meet your needs. Genesis is the ground floor and foundation of the entire Bible. Without it, the rest of the Bible would be incomprehensible. Read: Genesis 1:1–10 God is triune, meaning, three-in-one—eternally existing in three persons. Genesis 3:22; Genesis 11:6 The Trinity consists of three persons: Father, Son, and Holy Spirit. God is the Creator of all things! Created (Bara) means, “to create something out of nothing.” Only God can create; that is, call into existence that which had no existence. God has always existed. He is self-existent. He has existed from the beginning. Revelation 1:8 God created all things in six days! Genesis gives a broad-stroked painting of creation, not a photograph. The focus of Genesis is not to show us “how the heavens go,” but “how to go to Heaven.” I don’t believe in the Bible because Science proves it true; I believe in the science that the Bible proves is true! God created mankind in His image. Read: Genesis 1:26–28 After each thing God created, He said, “It is good.” When God created man, He said, “It is very good.” Genesis 1:31 Read: Genesis 2:1–3 God did not rest because He was tired; He rested because He was done! The word rest in Hebrew is Shabath and it means, “cease.” “Cast all your care on Him, for He cares for you!” 1 Peter 5:7 The God who created you will bear it for you. “If you will come to Him, He will turn your night into day with a word. He will reorder your broken life with a word. He will bring form out of chaos with a word. It’s His specialty.” “The Lord remembers us, and He will bless us.” Psalm 115:12 The meaning of life is to know and bring glory to God! --- Learn more about Greg Laurie and Harvest Ministries at harvest.org.

They say, in any major city these days, there are cameras watching you . . . as you walk, as you drive. Security cameras in front of a market, or built into a nearby ATM. Maybe a webcam on the top of a building or someone’s video door bell. What about our friends and loved ones in Heaven? Are they watching what’s going on here on earth? Pastor Greg Laurie address that question and several others today on A NEW BEGINNING as he presents a glimpse of life inside our eternal home.

Sometimes, we just can’t hold back the joy. When our favorite sports team wins the big game. When our young child takes his first steps. When you hear the words, “You may kiss your bride.” Well, when we get to Heaven, we just may not be able to hold ourselves back from worship. Today on A NEW BEGINNING, Pastor Greg Laurie helps us see what we’ll be doing in Heaven . . . and what things will be different from this life, and what things will largely be the same.

Ever fallen for that ruse at the supermarket? You see a package marked new & improved and so you buy it. Then you get it home and taste it and . . and . . It isn’t new or improved! Well, as believers, there’ll come a time when we’re new and improved. For real. Today on A NEW BEGINNING, Pastor Greg Laurie points out just how we’ll change personally when we get to Heaven.
