Greg Laurie: A New Beginning

I Forgave the Man Who Brutally Tortured Me: Louis Zamperini's Miracle Story

Ever found yourself between a rock and a hard place with a home repair project? If you do this, the house catches fire. If you do that, the house falls down. So you call “the guy.” The guy who knows stuff. He comes in and turns the whatchamacallit right side up, and job done. Where can we find that kind of help to turn the rest of our lives right side up? Pastor Greg Laurie answers that today on A NEW BEGINNING. Good encouragement coming our way.

The Name That Changes Everything | The Impact That Lasts  

We talk of the Word of God as being our sword . . . our sword of the Spirit in spiritual battle. We speak of it being food for our hungry souls. But it’s also a steady life preserver when we get pulled under by pressure and panic. And today on A NEW BEGINNING, Pastor Greg Laurie shows us the comfort we meet when the Bible calls Jesus a man of sorrows, acquainted with grief. He understands our pain, and His arms are strong enough to carry us through.
