In many cultures, it’s becoming increasingly popular to define truth according to what you think or believe in the moment. But find out what the Bible says is true—whether we believe it or not. That’s the focus on Truth For Life with Alistair Begg.

Some people think Jesus is for people who can’t get through life on their own. Many believers can’t imagine trying to get through life on our own. But the more important fact is Jesus is for those who can’t get to Heaven on their own. And we’re all in that category. Today on A NEW BEGINNING, Pastor Greg Laurie continues our study series in Romans called Relentless Grace with insight on how the Gospel needs to be shared with everyone. . . because we’re all in need of that grace.

“Well done, good and faithful servant.” Aren’t these the words that every Christian longs to hear from God? Listen to Truth For Life as Alistair Begg examines the role of deacons and considers whether it’s biblical for women to serve in this role.

Certain words can be freeing. Like “you’re forgiven.” Or “the debt has been canceled.” Or “you’ve been found not guilty.” The Gospel includes all those words. We’ve been forgiven of our sin because Jesus paid our debt and took our guilt upon Himself. Those words of freedom can’t be kept to ourselves. And today on A NEW BEGINNING, as Pastor Greg Laurie continues a series called Relentless Grace, we’ll see the importance of sharing that Good News with those who need freedom.

Although astrologists or psychics might seem harmless, our task is to discern the danger.

Are the spiritual requirements and functions the same for deacons and elders? Is one role more important than the other? Can a church have one without the other? Explore the answers to these questions along with Alistair Begg on Truth For Life.

As believers, Jesus has changed our lives. He’s given us life eternal and life more abundant in the here and now. If Jesus can change our lives, He can change someone else’s life. And there may be someone we know – someone in our circle of influence right now – that needs to hear, wants to hear, and will welcome the chance to hear our experience. Today on A NEW BEGINNING, Pastor Greg Laurie helps us get over the hurdles and hesitations that keep us from sharing that Good News.

Occult influence is very real, enshrined in modern philosophies and media. God says we must abstain and abhor every practice that seeks hidden power and knowledge.
