Honest to God | The Danger of Pretending

In the movie industry, they talk about the “suspension of disbelief.” It’s all make- believe, right? But they try to make the costumes, and the special effects, and the acting so convincing that it suspends our disbelief. They hope we forget it’s fake. Or fiction, if you prefer. Today on A NEW BEGINNING, Pastor Greg Laurie points out that some people sort of act their way through life. They try to suspend our disbelief about how they’re really living. We’ll see that’s a fruitless pursuit. — Become a Harvest Partner [https://harvest.org/harvest-partner/?utm_source=ANB&utm_medium=podcast&utm_campaign=HarvestPartners] today and join us in knowing God and making Him known through media and large-scale evangelism, our mission of over 30 years.

Honest to God | Living Authentically

When we hide behind a facade, a false-front, trying to pretend we’re someone we’re not, we’re not fooling God, right? He knows who we really are. In fact, He knows us better than we know ourselves. Well today on A NEW BEGINNING, Pastor Greg Laurie points out the peril of living an imitation life. It’s a disappointment to the Lord, and our act may not be believable to those around us either. It’s a good opportunity for a reset, and to live a life of transparent honesty going forward. — Become a Harvest Partner [https://harvest.org/harvest-partner/?utm_source=ANB&utm_medium=podcast&utm_campaign=HarvestPartners] today and join us in knowing God and making Him known through media and large-scale evangelism, our mission of over 30 years.

They Had Been with Jesus | Faith That Stands Firm

Jesus warned us that we may face persecution for our faith. It doesn’t mean we’re doing something wrong, in fact it may be an indication that we’re right with the Lord. Today on A NEW BEGINNING, Pastor Greg Laurie points to that characteristic and several others that show us how we’re doing. If we’re walking closely with the Lord, these traits will be obvious. It’s good insight, and a good opportunity to take some notes. Pastor Greg is in the book of Acts today, reading from the New Living Translation. — Become a Harvest Partner [https://harvest.org/harvest-partner/?utm_source=ANB&utm_medium=podcast&utm_campaign=HarvestPartners] today and join us in knowing God and making Him known through media and large-scale evangelism, our mission of over 30 years.

They Had Been with Jesus | Living for Christ

When we spend some serious time out in the sun, it’s pretty obvious. People can see it all over our face. “You got some sun, didn’t you?” Well today, we’ll see when we spend some time with the Son – S-O-N – it may be just as obvious. People will wonder what’s different about us. Today on A NEW BEGINNING, Pastor Greg Laurie continues our studies of the Church of the First Century in the book of Acts. It’s a series called The Upside-Down Life. Let’s see how to show we’ve been with Jesus. — Become a Harvest Partner [https://harvest.org/harvest-partner/?utm_source=ANB&utm_medium=podcast&utm_campaign=HarvestPartners] today and join us in knowing God and making Him known through media and large-scale evangelism, our mission of over 30 years.
