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.

The Harvest Crusade is coming to Angel Stadium on July 11! Stay updated on all important event details.
