We usually talk about the name “Immanuel” at Christmastime, but it’s deeply meaningful all year round. Isn’t it incredible that God would come to earth in the form of a baby to be near to us?

Too many Christians spend their lives playing defense, simply trying to survive another day. Dr. Tony Evans explains how recognizing Christ’s authority changes our perspective and allows us to move forward with purpose instead of constantly retreating from the enemy.

You can be outwardly religious and still be inwardly rebellious. Teaching from Luke 15 , Dr. Youssef turns to the older son in Jesus’ parable—a man who appeared faithful, yet whose heart was cold, resentful, and unwilling to celebrate grace. His problem was not open rebellion, but self-righteousness. Jesus reveals that prideful religion can be just as deadly as obvious sin because it resists mercy...

In this episode, David Wollen and pastor and birder Kevin Burrell consider what four fascinating birds can teach us about ourselves, the Christian life, and the church.

We like to think we make rational decisions with our money, but what if our emotions influence our financial choices far more than we realize? That’s one of behavioral economics' central findings: human psychology shapes financial decisions. While these discoveries have challenged traditional economic thinking, they reinforce what Scripture has taught for thousands of years: human wisdom is limite...

No matter who we are, what neighborhood we come from, whether we’re famous, infamous or unknown, we have something someone else wants. We have something someone else needs. We have a smile, and a kind word. It’s that simple. Maybe we don’t have a dollar in our pocket, but a moment of kindness may be just what someone needs to get through their difficulty. Today on A NEW BEGINNING, Pastor Greg Laur...

Mark 1:14–20 Nearly everyone longs for a clear sense of purpose—yet leaving the familiar behind is another matter entirely. When Jesus called His first disciples beside the Sea of Galilee, He didn’t issue a theological lecture. He simply said, “Follow Me.” From Mark 1:14–20, Pastor Chuck Swindoll examines the Savior’s call on Simon, Andrew, James, and John. Jesus’ call was personal, authoritative,...

Now, it’s hard to lose weight; I know that very well. But the real trick in weight loss is keeping the weight off. Years ago I dropped about 55 pounds and believe me i’m not looking for it. I mean, it went away thankfully a little bit at a time. I found out that it is possible to hang around the level of where you got your weight loss to. Of course, you can’t eat grapefruit all the time, or celery...

Show Notes and Resources 5 Prayers for Cou...

At the heart of what it is to be human, there’s a deep desire to be understood. In your suffering, do you long for someone to come alongside you and whisper, “Me too”? Nancy and Erin Davis show you the ways Jesus does this for us. As our thanks for your gift of any amount this month: Consider Jesus: Meditations on the Person & Work of Christ . No matter how impressive our decorating skills or how...

A narcissist can make you feel like you're losing your grip on reality. One minute they’re charming, the next, cold or hateful. They gaslight, twist words, demean, and deny truth, leaving you feeling like you’re worth nothing to them, overreacting, or going crazy. But you’re not crazy. Narcissists thrive on control, and to maintain power, they’ll shift blame, deflect responsibility, and create emo...

There’s more to life than simply moving from one day to the next. Dr. Tony Evans explains the spiritual conflict taking place behind the scenes and why God’s Kingdom Agenda is necessary for understanding our purpose and responding to the battle around us.

In many churches, single people are sometimes made to feel like outsiders. Everyone appears to be paired off, and a lot of energy goes into cultivating healthy families. As a result, and tragically, some singles admit to feeling like second class Christians. In this message, J.D. explains that God’s view is far different. In fact, the Bible often reinforces the benefits to singleness. And whether...

In this piercing message from Enduring Wisdom , Dr. Michael Youssef traces the younger son’s descent from pride and self-rule into shame, loss, and spiritual poverty. From Luke 15 , Jesus exposes the emptiness of sin and reveals the only way home: humble repentance and surrender to the Father.

We’ve all been wounded by something someone said to us. And, if we’re candid, we’d probably all admit we’ve said some things that may have hurt someone else. Once those careless words leave our mouths, there’s just no getting them back. How can we control our tongues . . . how can we keep that tiger in the cage? Today on A NEW BEGINNING, Pastor Greg Laurie takes us to some specific counsel in the...

What if debt isn't just a financial issue, but a discipleship one? We often view borrowing through a financial lens, focusing on interest rates, monthly payments, and repayment timelines. But Scripture invites us to consider something deeper. Debt can shape our freedom, influence our generosity, and affect our ability to respond to opportunities God places before us. Borrowing is common in modern...
