In this Sunday episode, Pastor Greg Laurie completes our 7 Signs of Jesus series with the last sign. In John 11, four days after the death of Lazarus, Jesus brings him back to life. Listen in for insights over Christ’s victory over death. Notes Death is not fair; it’s harsh and mean and rips those we love away from us. Death is not a friend; it’s an enemy! “The last enemy to be destroyed is death.” —1 Corinthians 15:26 God did not want people to die. 1. Life is filled with pain, sorrow, and the death of loved ones. 2. God loves us. (Therefore, whatever He does or allows to happen in your life, as His child, is motivated by His everlasting love for you). “Lord, behold, he whom You love is sick.” —John 11:3 “He is a very present help in time of trouble.” —Psalm 46:1 Even though we cannot see how the situation will end, or why it has come upon us, we can know it flows from the love of God and is controlled by Him. We think of the temporal; God thinks of the eternal! Mary and Martha brought their doubts to Jesus! 3. Because Jesus loves us, He weeps with us in our times of pain. (Jesus was/is God, with all His power and glory, but He also was a man who felt our pain and sorrows.) Death breaks God’s heart, just as it breaks ours. The word troubled could be translated as, “He was mad!” 4. God can be glorified through human suffering and bring good out of bad. Sometimes God will be glorified through the removal of affliction (in this case, death); and other times, He will be glorified through the enduring of the affliction. Heaven is the earthly life of the believer, glorified and perfected. Death is an enemy, but it was also destroyed! Jesus Christ has power over death!

Are saints required to suffer in silence? When the going gets tough, do the tough get quiet? When the bottom drops out, don’t we all want to cry out? Today on A NEW BEGINNING, Pastor Greg Laurie offers some valuable insight for the toughest times of life. We’ll follow the life of David from the book of First Samuel, and see what he faced, how he responded, and what we can learn from the biblical account. It’s good encouragement . . . even if you’re not currently facing a time of great challenge. Listen on harvest.org --- JESUS REVOLUTION is now in theaters!

In this Sunday message, Pastor Greg Laurie continues our 7 Signs of Jesus series with a particularly powerful story—the “cleansing of the temple.” Discover what makes God angry in this message from John 2! Notes “The Christian life is like a greased pole; you are either climbing or slipping.” —Unknown Goliath was not always a giant. The little things that we nurture can become big things; in other words, little liberties can turn into big vices. “Sow a thought, reap an act. Sow an act, reap a habit. Sow a habit, reap a destiny.” —Ralph Waldo Emerson In the Lord’s Prayer, Jesus taught us to ask for forgiveness regularly. Jesus’ first miracle: Water into wine. Jesus answers our prayers, does what we ask, and comes through for us; but then there are times He comes and cleans house and overturns tables. 1. There are things that make God angry. 2. God cares about His house. If you come to Jesus, He will accept you as you are, but He will not leave you that way. Saul of Tarsus was a murderer, but he became a mighty apostle. “Let those who love the Lord hate evil, for He guards the lives of His faithful ones and delivers them from the hand of the wicked.” —Psalm 97:10 Sometimes we get angry with sinners when we need to be angry with Satan. What angered Jesus? People being kept from God. 3. God gets angry when people are kept from coming to Him. The church exists to glorify God, edify the saints, and evangelize to the world. “The church is a hospital for sinners, not a museum for saints.” —Abigail Van Buren 4. What does Jesus cleansing the Temple have to do with me? As part of the new covenant, God now lives in the hearts of His people. Paul prayed that “Christ would dwell in our hearts by faith” (Ephesians 3:17). Dwell means, “To settle down and be at home.” The dwelling place of God (the Temple of God) is you! Perhaps you have sins that have not been confessed, and vices that have not been confronted. Jesus wants access to every room of your house! Jesus wants access to every room to clean properly. Jesus may overturn a table or two, but when it is done, it will be clean! Revival is returning to original condition. 5. Jesus knows everything about you. 6. Jesus will always reveal Himself to the true seeker; but to the fickle, shallow, and insincere, nothing will happen. Jesus Christ is ready to come clean up your life!

More people complain about headaches than any other health condition. About 45 million people suffer from them each year. The major causes? Stress and lack of sleep, among others.

God has never encountered a problem or a crisis too big for Him to handle. He’s never said “uh-oh.” So when we encounter something we can’t handle, we need to look to our God who can handle anything. And today on A NEW BEGINNING, as Pastor Greg Laurie returns to our studies of the life of David, we’ll see what happened when David faced a giant-sized problem. It’s a familiar story, but sometimes we miss the practical application. That’s Pastor Greg’s focus as we begin today’s study. Listen on harvest.org --- JESUS REVOLUTION is now in theaters!

Some tend to think that God only uses perfect people . . . people with no blindspots, no failings, no shortcomings. But the more we study the Bible, the more we see how God used imperfect people to do remarkable things for His Kingdom. How can we be the kind of person God is looking for? Pastor Greg Laurie answers that today here on A NEW BEGINNING as we examine the life of a great leader of Israel who God chose personally, over and above other candidates who appeared more impressive.

We see the social media posts of certain friends and marvel at how great their life is. Lunch on the beach in Cabo. Sipping a hot chocolate in a ski chalet in Aspen. You know, social media has become a collection of highlight reels—because people want to look good. But today on A NEW BEGINNING, Pastor Greg Laurie points out God follows you . . . no, not on social media, in real life.

In this Sunday message, Pastor Greg Laurie points you to Jesus’ first miracle, what this shows about faith, and the Christian’s future is bright. Notes Have you ever asked God for a sign? Jesus was asked for signs. Jesus gave the sign the Pharisees and Sadducees asked for; they just did not like it and asked for more. The Great “I Am” Statements of Christ: I Am the Bread of Life – John 6. I Am the Light of the World – John 8. I Am the Door of the Sheep – John 10. I Am the Good Shepherd – John 10. I Am the Resurrection and the Life – John 11:25. I Am the Way, the Truth, and the Life – John 14:6. 7 Signs that Prove Jesus is the Messiah: Turning water into wine. Cleansing the temple – John 2:13–22. Healing the centurion’s son – John 4:46–54. Healing the lame man in Jerusalem – John 5:1–15. Feeding the 5,000 – John 6:1–15. Healing the man who was born blind – John 9. Raising Lazarus from the dead – John 11. Jesus was preparing them for the ultimate sign … His death and resurrection from the dead. If you want to win some, you need to be winsome. Be a witness, and you will better be able to witness. Jesus’ first miracle simply brought joy to people. Not only did Jesus’ first miracle impress those assembled, but it impacted His own followers! As believers, we need to believe our beliefs and doubt our doubts. My hour has not yet come. But His mother told the servants, “Do whatever He tells you” (John 2:5). The way the miracle was done is important. Jesus did not tell them what would happen; He just told them to do it. Faith is not just intellectual ascent; it’s action! Faith is the means by which the infirmity of man takes hold of the infinity of God. The devil and this world always offer the best wine at first and the diluted later, while God saves His best wine for last. You determine the end of your life by the beginning of it. The best is yet to come in this life. The best is yet to come in the afterlife. We will come back with Jesus to a new earth. For the nonbeliever, the worst is yet to come, and this life is as good as it gets. For the believer, this life is as bad as it gets. The worst is yet to come because the Bible promises a future judgment.

Our mission statement here at A NEW BEGINNING is “Knowing Him and Making Him Known.” Today, we’ll see how those two ideas are inseparably linked. When we make Him known, we know Him better. When we draw other people to Christ, we’re drawn to Christ. Sounds like a great idea, doesn’t it?
