New Beginnings Family

After 3 and half years with Jesus, his disciples experienced the worst thing they could have imagined.  They saw their teacher, their friend, their mentor, their Lord…arrested, put on a sham trial, sentenced, tortured and killed.  There are events that happen in our lives that shake us.  Those events can crush us, they can scare us, or they can wake us up.  During these kinds of events, often peop...

Electricity requires very specific things in order for it to flow from one place to another.  There are things called insulators that completely stop the power flow.  These are things like rubber or wood.  There are also things called resisters.  Those are types of material that allows electricity to flow, but not really well effectively taking a lot of power and turning into a lot less power on t...

All around us, there are two powers at war.  These two powers have been at war since the very beginning.  They are opposites in every way.  One represents all that is good and the other all that is bad.  One of these powers pulls all of creation towards destruction while the other pulls it towards perfection. The first power has caused civilizations to crumble.  It has broken families and cultures...

When you expect God to do something in your life, you have to also expect all that comes with that thing.  In this episode, we'll be looking at three levels of expectations.

If you look back on your life, you’ll probably realize quickly that there are only a few times that you would consider HUGE moments.  Was God working in those moments? Sure. Could the Holy Spirit be working to help you or use you in those moments? Of course! But what about the normal  grind of your daily life? Think about it…most of those HUGE moments had a lot of boring t...

Before there was an Acts 2, there was an Acts 1…there was context. Before the Holy Spirit came and filled believers, a foundation was laid. In this series, we will explore the idea of preparing for power by looking at just what happened leading up to the moment in Acts 2 where they were filled with the Holy Spirit and Fresh Power.

Peter denied Jesus three times, then preached to about Jesus to thousands of people later.  The disciples were hiding in a house with the doors shut after Jesus died, then were helping to teach and disciple the massive numbers of new converts in Jerusalem.  The before and after comparison is incredible, but what could have made that kind of change happen?  In this first episode of 2...

We often hear about the people who were at the birth of Jesus...Mary, Joseph, the shepherds...but what about the people who missed the first Christmas?  What about the people who had heard about and prayed for the coming Messiah their entire lives that simply missed him because they were too preoccupied?  In this episode, we'll talk about the importance of making room for Jesus in your d...

Luke, one of history’s most credible and reliable historians, records that shepherds were the first to witness the arrival of Jesus...but, why shepherds? They were poor, so they couldn't bring any worthwhile gifts to the Messiah. They had no influence with people. They were outcasts of society, so no one would believe them. Of all the people God could have chosen to reveal the birth of His Son to,...

What did the wise men see in the sky that made them travel so far to worship a child?  Why weren't there also thousands of others following this star?  Why did no one else seem to notice it?  In this episode, we're going to look at the star of Christmas that the wise men saw.

The story of Christmas began with a promise.  It was a promise that the Messiah was coming.  That promise was followed up by hundreds of prophesies to help people know where to look.  God never makes empty promises and ultimately, the Messiah did come.  His name is Jesus and he came in order to restore what had been broken.

How can a person be thankful while under difficult and painful or even disappointing circumstances?  Why should they be?  What if thankfulness and gratitude were the key to your freedom?  In this episode, we'll deal with the subject of radical gratitude.
