Investing for Eternity (Part 1 of 4)

On Evangelism and Preaching (Interview)

A Coming of the Kingdom (Part 1 of 2)

A Coming of the Kingdom (Part 2 of 2)

A Parable on Prayer

“Don’t judge a book by its cover.” This saying warns against making assumptions based on external factors. On Truth For Life, Alistair Begg examines Jesus’ parable of the Pharisee and the tax collector to point out how this is also true within the church.

There Is a Hope…

The Bible teaches that God’s people and creation groan in longing for Christ’s return. Have you considered that when the Spirit intercedes on behalf of believers’ prayers, God is praying to Himself? On Truth For Life, Alistair Begg investigates this truth.

Help in Our Weakness (Part 1 of 2)

What Does Jesus Say? (Part 2 of 2)

Born Again (Part 1 of 2)

The Bible makes it clear that by nature, we’re spiritually dead. So what does this mean for us, and how do we become spiritually alive? Hear the answer as we continue our study of Jesus’ “Truly, truly…” statements on Truth For Life with Alistair Begg.



A Matter of Death and Life (Part 1 of 2)

A Religious Problem (Part 1 of 2)

At Christmas, holiday lights and festive displays, often including nativity scenes, abound. But while the manger scene is familiar, many don’t understand why it’s significant. Explore key questions surrounding Christ’s incarnation, on Truth For Life with Alistair Begg.



When? What? Why? (Part 1 of 3)

“Here Is My Servant!” (Part 1 of 4)

“Here Is My Servant!” (Part 2 of 4)

“Here Is My Servant!” (Part 3 of 4)

“Here Is My Servant!” (Part 4 of 4)

Many believe that Jesus came to reward good people and punish the bad. The Bible teaches quite differently, though! Study along with Truth For Life as Alistair Begg considers how punishment and rewards are truly assessed through God’s Servant.



“See My Servant”

When? What? Why? (Part 3 of 3)

Jesus came to seek and save the lost. When He ascended into heaven, He promised to return. When will that happen? And why does it seem to be taking so long? On Truth For Life, Alistair Begg addresses these questions and teaches us how we can be prepared.



The Second Advent (Part 1 of 2)

We’re living between two advents. When Jesus comes back to earth, it won’t be as a baby like the first time—and it won’t be to seek and save the lost. So how will Christ return, and what will His purpose be? Find out on Truth For Life with Alistair Begg.



The Second Advent (Part 2 of 2)

You’ve likely heard people say, “That may be your truth. If it works for you, great—but it isn’t my truth.” How should Christians respond? Is there such a thing as absolute truth? Listen to Truth For Life as Alistair Begg explores Jesus’ exclusive claims.
