New Beginnings Family

What could cause shepherds to leave their flocks, their very livelihoods, to go see a baby?  What could cause a group of Persian magi to travel for what was probably 4-5 months, bringing gifts with them, to greet a newly born Jewish king?  What could cause angels to rejoice and celebrate over the fields that night as they announced the birth of Jesus?  What can cause a person with a broken spirit...

Have you ever asked God for something you didn’t get?  Have you ever had God give you what you wanted, but much later than you wanted it?  These situations can be a struggle on a person’s faith.  They can make a person wonder if God hears them, if He really cares about them, or if He’s really capable of answering prayer.  There are certainly times when we pray and ask God for specific things to ha...

This is a special episode giving an update on Pastor Josh's missions trip to Guatemala and our plans going forward to plant a church in the country.

Change is inevitable.  It’s also something God wants for you.  God is never satisfied with a person who does not change.  If a person has not changed in years, that means the person has not learned and grown.  If a person is at the same place in life they were years ago, it means that person has not bettered their situation.  God’s will is for us to constantly grow more like Him.  God’s will for y...

The feeling of being in a situation outside your control is something we can all relate to.  Each of us, at some point, will be in a set of circumstances where we feel helpless...where we need God to act, because there is nothing we can do to change anything.  What is a person of faith supposed to do when circumstances arrange themselves into an impossible situation?  What is a Christian supposed...

It almost seems like it is built right into our very nature to disagree, to argue, to focus on the tiny things that we disagree on, but don’t actually matter.  In many cases, these things can be light and humorous, but there are other things that take on a different nature entirely.  There are arguments that are very serious, but are just as trivial.  Have you ever had one of these?  An entire nig...

When God asks for someone to step out in faith and be used by Him, what will your response be?

Fire is made up of three parts, so each week we’re going to be looking at one of those parts.  The three parts are...fuel, oxygen, and heat.  In the same way, there are three essential parts to being “on fire” for God.  In this series, we are talking about how to fill your life with the fuel you will need to burn brightly in a dark world.
