    June 9, 2025: “Above All Things”

    Above all things, God exalts His name and His Word. This became evident to Moses when, feeling inadequate, he questioned God’s choice of him as a spokesman. In response to these doubts, God assured Moses of His presence and identified Himself as the great “I AM.” In his final sermon at Parkside Church, Alistair Begg focuses on this unique encounter found in Exodus 3. God met Moses’s need with assurance of His “isness” as well as His presence—spiritual realities that remain reliable and trustworthy for believers still today.

  2. JUN 8

    June 8, 2025: “When Forty Years Had Passed”

    After failing in his first attempt as Israel’s deliverer, Moses spent the next forty years living the routine life of a shepherd. During these “silent” years, God was preparing Moses to shepherd His people. In this study in Exodus 3, Alistair Begg walks us through God’s appearance in the burning bush, His assurance of His sovereignty, and His assignment for Moses. Whether our lives seem out of control or stuck in humdrum routines, God is still in charge, and His promises remain trustworthy.

    June 3, 2025: In His Time — Part Three

    The Bible clearly teaches that God created the universe, orchestrates all of life’s events, and knows us intimately. In this sermon on Exodus 2, Alistair Begg explains how God’s providence shaped the early life of Moses in particular. Before the burning bush, the plagues, and the parting of the Red Sea, Moses murdered an Egyptian and, fearing retribution from Pharaoh, fled to Midian. There, however, instead of judgment, he found God’s favor. As with Moses, our lives unfold beneath the unseen hand of God, who promises to forget our sins, which He forgives in Christ.

  4. JUN 2

    June 2, 2025: In His Time — Part Two

    God makes all things beautiful in His time—even if His timing isn’t always our ideal! When the Hebrews were enslaved and treated harshly in Egypt, one Hebrew infant was spared. Nurtured in the faith by his own mother, Moses also enjoyed the privileged life of an Egyptian prince. While little is known of Moses’s first forty years, Alistair Begg explores two tragic events—and the resulting disgrace and delayed deliverance—that occurred when Moses imposed his own will instead of relying on God’s providential hand.

    May 27, 2025: In His Time — Part One

    Amid trials and hardships, have you ever wondered where God was? When life’s difficulties seem random and apparently pointless, it’s vitally important to know what we believe about God. In this message on the opening of Exodus, Alistair Begg reminds us that even when heaven is silent, our heavenly Father is still at work behind the scenes. The same power that provided a way for Moses to become a redeemer for his people is at work in the vast array of details of our lives today.

  6. MAY 19

    May 19, 2025: The God in Charge of History

    The story of our earthly pilgrimage is not a straight line—yet when our lives twist and turn and we face unanswered questions, hardship, and sorrow, there is hope for all who trust in Christ. Beginning with the transition from the end of Genesis to the opening of Exodus, Alistair Begg reminds us that God’s providence underpins everything, as He is sovereign over all things, no matter how small or seemingly insignificant. What was true for the Israelites is true for us today: We can trust that the unseen controller of history is working out His purposes in His way, making everything beautiful in His time.

  7. MAY 12

    May 12, 2025: A Meditation on Mother’s Day

    In the moments before He died, Jesus saw His mother, Mary, standing with John and tenderly commended them to one another’s care. In this Mother’s Day message, Alistair Begg ponders the history and heart of Mary, reminding us that Jesus’ loving and temporal provision for her in this moment is an emblem of a far greater reality—the eternal provision Christ makes for all who believe in Him. With this act of loving grace, Jesus establishes a whole new category, fashioning a family of faith that finds both forgiveness and fellowship in the work of the cross.

  8. MAY 10

    May 10, 2025: “Shepherd the Flock of God”

    In the final section of his first epistle, the apostle Peter issued a series of challenging exhortations to the elders of the churches to which he wrote. In the concluding message of Basics 2025, Alistair Begg shows how Peter’s words remain relevant to today’s pastors and church leaders, reminding them of the key imperatives of Gospel ministry. The only hope we have, he reminds us—in ministry and in life—is in the God of grace, who provides support so that we won’t topple, strength so that we won’t collapse, and a foundation so that we won’t be blown away.

    May 9, 2025: How the Pastor Shepherds a Praise Team

    Most pastors have experienced a Sunday (or many!) when they aren’t on the same page as the praise musicians. This disconnect can result in discontinuity between the pulpit and music ministry, frustrating both the pastor and the worship team. In this breakout, Parkside Church’s Jonathan Albright considers several practical music ministry scenarios and identifies key principles that lead to unified, intentional ministry between the pastor and praise team.

  10. MAY 9

    May 9, 2025: Ministering to Those with Addictions

    Between 2020 and 2023, over 400,000 Americans died drug-related deaths, with another 560,000 succumbing to deaths related to alcohol. The statistics are just as bad in Scotland. For the past eight years, Hope for Addiction UK has been seeking to make a difference in this arena. In this breakout session, Terry McCutcheon shares what the organization has been doing and learning as it seeks to minister in a culture of addiction.
