The Bible teaches us how to think and how to behave. And we see it demonstrated in the lives of the heroes of our faith. They were people of commitment, and people of action. And today on A NEW BEGINNING, Pastor Greg Laurie helps us focus on one particular biblical action figure to see the steps that lead to spiritual failure . . . so we can avoid them! Peter sometimes showed us what to do, and sometimes what NOT to do, but the takeaway lessons are significant.

God keeps His covenant with us even when we disobey. But there is a cost to disobedience. The prophet Zachariah warned the Israelites about the consequences of sin and disobedience. But he also spoke of a faithful God who will one day keep every promise He has ever made. Ron takes us to the book of Zachariah next, as he continues his teaching series, “The Ultimate Road Trip Through The Bible: The Minor Prophets.”
