God has given each of us a job. It’s an important job. But we probably spend a lot more time at the job that’s printed on our business card than engaged in the job God has given us. God didn’t put us here to be the vice-president of this, or the regional director that. Pastor Greg Laurie points out today, our main job is to show others how to know the Lord. Today on A NEW BEGINNING, some practical insight on how to do that job well. The job is discipleship . . . and we all have been called to that privilege. Join our Jesus Revolution Baptism on July 27!

Ever been hunting for something in one of those big-box stores . . . and you feel like you’ve been walking forever? You ask an employee, “Excuse me, where are the paper towels?” And you hope they don’t just point... to the other side of the store. The words you want to hear are, “C’mon, I’ll take you there.” Today on A NEW BEGINNING, Pastor Greg Laurie explains that new believers need that kind of assistance. We need to show them the way. It’s personal, helpful. It’s called discipleship, and that’s our topic today.  Join our Jesus Revolution Baptism on July 27! Get details here.

Christian disciples are in the import/export business. No, it’s not Persian rugs or spices from India. It’s truth from Heaven. God’s Word gives us everything we need to know to grow as committed followers of the Lord. And today on A NEW BEGINNING, Pastor Greg Laurie points out that it’s up to us to import those truths into our lives, and then look for opportunities to export those principles into the lives of those in our circle of influence. These are “disciplines of discipleship.”  Join our Jesus Revolution Baptism on July 27! Get details here.

One of the classic, old CCM songs of days gone by was called Two Hands, by Love Song. The song said “with one hand reach out to Jesus, with the other, bring a friend.” That’s a pretty good description of discipleship in a nutshell. And today on A NEW BEGINNING, Pastor Greg Laurie helps us follow the Lord wholeheartedly, and show others how to do the same. We’ll learn how to embrace the very purpose we’re here: to have fellowship with God, and to bring others into that fellowship. Join our Jesus Revolution Baptism on July 27! Get details here.

How should we live in light of what we know about the end times? Pastor Greg Laurie shares the answer as we wrap up our series we’re calling "The Future Is Written." Notes: Focus verse: Luke 12 An understanding of End Times teaching will cause us to live Godly lives. What you believe about End Times will affect the way you live in these times. If our belief in the imminent return of Christ does not affect our lifestyles, we have completely missed the point. D.L. Moody was once asked, “If you knew the Lord would return tonight, how would you spend the rest of the day?” Moody replied without hesitation, “I wouldn’t do anything different than I do every day.” What should I be doing in light of the fact that Jesus could come at any moment? Read: Luke 12:35–38 We should be shining lights in a dark place.Luke 12:35 To gird your waist simply meant, “to tighten your belt.” To have their lamps burning meant, they would have sufficient oil in them. As the culture gets darker, we need to shine brighter. We are to be watching for Him.Luke 12:37 We are to be ready to go. We should not only be ready but be anxiously awaiting His return.Luke 12:36 We are not only anxiously waiting but we are also working.Luke 12:43 We will never share the gospel if we don’t care about lost people.People don’t care how much you know until they know how much you care. The gospel, by its design, is meant to be shared with others. We can evangelize or fossilize. Luke 12:45–46 The easiest place to get a hardened heart is in the church. The easiest place to get a hardened heart is where you hear the Word of God being taught.The same sun that softens the wax, hardens the clay. Luke 12:47 Jesus is coming! --- Learn more about Greg Laurie and Harvest Ministries at harvest.org.

What’s right isn’t always popular, and what’s popular isn’t always right. It’s easy to go with the flow . . . laugh along with others at an inappropriate joke, remain silent when a co-worker is about to do something unethical. But those who never stand for something eventually will fall for anything. Today on A NEW BEGINNING, Pastor Greg Laurie helps us put our faith, our relationship with God, front and center in our daily lives. It’s part of walking the rewarding path of discipleship.  Keep up with Harvest Crusade details --- Listen on harvest.org --- Learn more and subscribe to Harvest updates at harvest.org A New Beginning is the daily half-hour program hosted by Greg Laurie, pastor of Harvest Christian Fellowship in Southern California.

It’s one thing to be ON the team, it’s another to be IN the action. It’s one thing to watch from the bench, it’s another to get in the game.

Today on A NEW BEGINNING, Pastor Greg Laurie helps us chart a course for getting in the game called discipleship.

Prerequisites. Students certainly know what those are. Those are things that have to come before other things. Before you can take English 201, you have to take English 101.

If heaven hangs in the balance, we want to make sure our hearts and minds are sincere in fully accepting the Lord’s invitation.

Ever drive away from home and had that nagging feeling you might have left the stove on? Or you forgot to lock a door? Or you left a curling iron plugged in? If you don’t go back and check, you start thinking of how things could go horribly wrong. We want to be sure about certain things, don’t we? Well today on A NEW BEGINNING, Pastor Greg Laurie helps us check ourselves when it comes to the sincerity of our faith in Christ. When it comes to matters of eternity, “close enough” . . . isn’t close enough.

As we've heard Pastor Greg Laurie say, “What we believe about end times will affect the way we live in these times.” Today, Pastor Jonathan Laurie helps us get a biblical understanding of the Rapture and Second Coming of Jesus Christ. Notes: Focus verse: Matthew 24:37 1. What Is the Rapture?1 Thessalonians 4:13–18 “The rapture of the church is that future event when Jesus Christ will descend from Heaven to resurrect the bodies of departed believers and to transform and translate the bodies of living believers immediately into His glorious presence in a moment of time, and then escort them to Heaven to live with Him forever.” —Mark Hitchcock The Rapture vs. The Second Coming The Rapture is when Jesus comes for His church.The Second Coming is when Jesus comes with His church. The Rapture happens before the tribulation.The Second Coming happens at the end of the tribulation. The Rapture is the removal of believers from the earth as an act of deliverance.The Second Coming includes unbelievers as an act of judgement. The Rapture will be secret and instant.The Second Coming will be visible to everyone. The Second Coming will not happen until the rapture happens.Nothing else needs to happen prophetically for the Rapture to happen. 2. Is It Biblical? Why Should We care?1 Corinthians 15:51–53 The Rapture Is Biblical Because:Accounts of people raptured (Enoch and Elijah).Civilizations spared from judgement (Sodom & Gomorrah and Nineveh).Jesus’ own words (Luke 17:34–36). 3. How Should We Respond?1 Thessalonians 5:6–11 “What we believe about end times will affect the way we live in these times.” —Pastor Greg Laurie Keep up with Harvest Crusade details --- Learn more about Greg Laurie and Harvest Ministries at harvest.org.

Looking for God’s will for your life? Want to know your part? Today on A NEWBEGINNING, Pastor Greg Laurie points out how where to pour yourconcentration. “Here’s what your focus should be on: not on success, your focus should be onfaithfulness. Doing what God has told you to do, wherever it takes you. If it takes youto a palace or a prison cell, all I want to know is Jesus is with me and I’m in the center of His will, and that for me is the right place to be.”  Keep up with Harvest Crusade details --- Listen on harvest.org --- Learn more and subscribe to Harvest updates at harvest.org A New Beginning is the daily half-hour program hosted by Greg Laurie, pastor of Harvest Christian Fellowship in Southern California.

“It takes courage, in our culture today especially, to speak up for what is true. Because culturally we’re going the wrong direction on so many fronts. And for you to stand up and say what the Bible says takes courage.” “Cancel culture” resists the truth of God’s Word. But Pastor Greg Laurie pointsout we have a message that must get delivered! “Now, I’ve got to warn you. If you speak up for what is true, you might get cancelled, or worse. But have courage.”  Keep up with Harvest Crusade details --- Listen on harvest.org --- Learn more and subscribe to Harvest updates at harvest.org A New Beginning is the daily half-hour program hosted by Greg Laurie, pastor of Harvest Christian Fellowship in Southern California.

We can make two mistakes when it comes to the afterlife. Some people think hell won’t be too bad. They joke that all their friends will be there – they’ll just party all the time. There won’t be any parties there. The other mistake we can make is thinking heaven isn’t all that good . . . especially if you don’t play the harp. Today on A NEW BEGINNING, Pastor Greg Laurie helps us see what’s really waiting for believers. We’ll learn about the abundant life in the here and now, and eternal life in the hereafter.

In any gym, there are people there who are just getting it done . . . a certain number of reps, a certain duration of time, and—whew!—they’re done, and they’re gone. And there are others who push themselves, and they give it their all! And it shows. Today on A NEW BEGINNING, Pastor Greg Laurie points out, this life is too important to muddle through. The Lord wants us to run this race with endurance, and to run this race to win. We’ll learn more about how to do that in Acts.

As believers, sometimes it seems we’re living in some kind of weird, upside-down culture where right is wrong, up is down, and sin is to be celebrated. We feel disoriented, like aliens on a strange planet. Today on A NEW BEGINNING, Pastor Greg Laurie points out that, sometimes, people may feel a bit disoriented when they talk to us. He’ll show us ways to find common ground, use common language, and capture their interest with our message of hope.  Keep up with Harvest Crusade details --- Listen on harvest.org --- Learn more and subscribe to Harvest updates at harvest.org A New Beginning is the daily half-hour program hosted by Greg Laurie, pastor of Harvest Christian Fellowship in Southern California.
