We sometimes call it a bad decision, a mistake, or a blunder. On Truth For Life, Alistair Begg reminds us that if we don’t claim our sinfulness we’ll never see our need for a Savior. It’s in true confession that we find grace.

The Bible is an ancient book, but its central message—the good news that Jesus Christ, the Son of God, died to save sinners—remains as timely and relevant today as ever. In this collection of listener favorites from the past year, Alistair Begg demonstrates how Scripture’s every page proclaims again and again the transforming power of the Gospel in the lives of those who receive it. Christ’s followers may not be exempt from disappointments or sadness, may struggle with sin, and may even be tempted to despair. As these messages explain, though, as we repent of self-righteousness and turn to God daily, He promises to fill us with a life-giving love for His Word, His people, and above all, His glory.| Message | Buy | Free | |

When teaching His disciples in Luke 21:33, Jesus explained to them, “Heaven and earth will pass away, but my words will not pass away.” As years turn and seasons change, the compass of the Gospel continues to point us unerringly toward Christ as the great revelation of God’s love and truth. In this collection of listener favorites from the previous year, Alistair Begg once again proclaims the truth of Scripture, which reveals to us the great Son of God, who conquered sin and death for our good and His glory. Whether in times of suffering, moments of triumph, or simply the ordinary cycles of our daily lives, God’s Word calls us to put our faith in Him alone, today and forever.| Message | Buy | Free | |

The year 2020 was unlike any we’ve seen before. A worldwide pandemic, periods of civil unrest, and the challenges of simply trying to get by in a socially distant world caused everyone to look for answers. In the midst of it all, though, God and His Word remained what they have always been: “our refuge and strength, a very present help in trouble” (Ps. 46:1). This series gathers together some of listeners’ favorite messages from the past year. In these sermons, Alistair Begg reminds us again of the unfailing truth that even when all seems chaos, God remains great, He is in control, and He is working for our good, both in this age and in the age to come. Listen in and be encouraged by the repeated promise of God’s salvation, achieved for us once and for all in the atoning death of Christ—a glorious work of redemption and love that no worldly troubles can ever overturn!| Message | Buy | Free | |
