When Jesus gave His life for our sins, it was no small gesture. Pastor Greg Laurie addresses Jesus’ sacrifice, saying He was wounded for our transgressions, and crushed for our iniquities. The punishment for our peace was upon Him, and by His stripes we are healed. Why did He die? Simple answer: because He loved the people He was dying for, and He loved you!

Pastor Greg Laurie talks plain truth in a style everyday Aussies can relate to. Using (often funny) stories and straight talk from the Word, he'll help you know God and make Him known. Greg Laurie is Senior Pastor of Harvest Christian Fellowship in Riverside, California. He began his pastoral ministry at age 19 by leading a Bible study of 30 people. Since then, God has transformed that small group into one of the largest churches in America. In 1990, Greg began holding public evangelistic events called Harvest Crusades. Since that time, more than 4 million people have attended Harvest Crusades across the U.S., Canada, Australia, and New Zealand. Ps Greg is the featured speaker of Harvest Ministry's radio program, A New Beginning, heard daily on Vision.
