    June 10, 2024: The Prayer of Jesus
    Jun 10 2024
    Prayer had a high priority in Jesus’ life. After teaching His disciples and preparing them for His departure, He prayed for Himself, for His disciples, and for all believers for all time. Beginning a study of John 17, Alistair Begg walks us through Christ’s straightforward yet deeply profound High Priestly Prayer. In an overview of this sacred passage, we get a taste of the mystery, security, sanctity, unity, and glory that Jesus prayed for—and that Alistair will explore in depth as this study unfolds.

  • June 3, 2024: A Death Predicted, a Disciple Restored

    June 3, 2024: A Death Predicted, a Disciple Restored
    Jun 3 2024
    After His resurrection, Jesus reappeared to His disciples several times. One such encounter involved a hard but necessary conversation in which Peter, who’d previously denied knowing Jesus, affirmed his love for Him. Christ then disclosed Peter’s future death and restored him to the mission of “fishing” for men and shepherding God’s people. Alistair Begg points out that the disciple’s previous denial of Christ didn’t disqualify him from ministry, because with Jesus, failure is never final.

    June 3, 2024: “Follow Me”
    Jun 3 2024
    When the resurrected Jesus appeared to Peter, recommissioned him, and told him what the future held, the restored disciple had to confront the task before him. Initially, his attention was focused on his friend John—perhaps in empathy or concern, or perhaps in jealousy. Yet Jesus redirected Peter and echoed His initial invitation to follow Him. While Peter and John were different men with different instincts and convictions, they shared the same hope: that one day, after He had gone, Jesus would return to bring His people home.

    May 17, 2024: “Fulfill Your Ministry”
    May 17 2024
    In a complicated world, Paul’s charge to Timothy was simple: “Preach the Word.” The same charge has been laid on today’s pastors and church leaders, who minister in a world that is no less complicated. As such, Alistair Begg calls upon them to do as Timothy did: to take their solemn call seriously, to face the hostilities and difficulties that stand before them, and to “do the work of an evangelist” for a culture that sorely needs the Gospel.

    Derek Prime, Alistair’s mentor and coauthor of ‘On Being a Pastor,’ has gone home to be with the Lord, but his legacy continues to impact pastors throughout the world. In this breakout session, pastors Jonathan and Andy Prime—Derek’s son and grandson respectively—illustrate how Derek Prime was first a disciple of Jesus before being a pastor and consider how his way of life and faith in the Lord Jesus can be imitated for greater Gospel impact.

    May 17, 2024: Understanding Our Holy Calling
    May 17 2024
    Paul exhorted Timothy and all ministers of the Gospel to nurture their God-given gifts, not to be ashamed of the Gospel, and to devote themselves to the life-giving Word of God. Teaching from 2 Timothy 1, theologian Sinclair Ferguson helps pastors and church leaders appreciate the pastorate’s holy calling. As he walks through Paul’s exhortation to Timothy and the pastoral pattern he sets forth, he unpacks key aspects of Timothy’s ministry worth considering and emulating, including the humbling impact of suffering and the necessity of sincere faith.

    May 17, 2024: Come and Hear: Hope Explored
    May 17 2024
    To “do the work of an evangelist,” as Paul urged his protégé Timothy to do, is often seen as an individual project—particularly, the specific work of individual pastors. However, as Rico Tice argues, the world needs the entire church body to engage in evangelism. In this talk, he surveys tools and techniques for accomplishing this task while making clear that God is the one who opens blind eyes and transforms lives.

    May 17, 2024: Gospel Partnerships
    May 17 2024
    Relationships are a precious and weighty influence on a pastor’s ministry. Even the apostle Paul could not fulfill his calling alone and felt vulnerable to the affections of those around him. In this message, Alistair Begg teaches from the end of Paul’s letters to Timothy, admonishing us to value our co-laborers and be mindful of our greetings and farewells. Every pastor will benefit from loyal and useful friendships, which serve as channels of God’s love and affection from one to another.
