Advertisers know that nothing gets our attention more than the word “free.” If we can get something for nothing, we’re listening. Well, God’s offer of eternal life means we trade in our sins and shortcomings . . . our nothingness . . . and He gives us eternal life. What’s more, His grace is literally something for nothing. We’ll learn about that today on A NEW BEGINNING as Pastor Greg Laurie continues our studies in the Psalms. We’ll get a lesson on forgiveness, mercy and grace.

The Power of Forgiveness | God's Free Gift

Every once in a while, we hear a story of an elderly person who lived like a pauper right up until they passed away. And then shortly thereafter, it’s discovered they had millions of dollars stuffed in an old mattress. Everybody has the same question: why didn’t they put that money to use? Today on A NEW BEGINNING, Pastor Greg Laurie asks the same question of the blessings God has given us. Are we saving them for a rainy day? We’ll get some good encouragement to put those blessings to use.

Invest in evangelism in 2025!

Waiting for Christmas | Are You Using the Blessings God Has Given You?

We tend to carve those in Bible stories into our mental Mt. Rushmore. We think of them as uniquely talented, uncompromising and above reproach. But a careful reading of those stories shows, in almost every instance, that they were rather ordinary, unremarkable people whom God used in remarkable ways. And today on A NEW BEGINNING, Pastor Greg Laurie focuses on one such individual who helped prepare for the coming of Christ. Good encouragement is coming.
