Hebrews, Part 9
Passage: Hebrews 8:1-13 In this message, Philip Stroup dives into why Jesus is seen as the ultimate high priest in Hebrews 8. We learned that Jesus’s role is exceptional because he ministers with authority in a heavenly temple, unparalleled by earthly priests, and oversees a new, superior covenant. Unlike the priests from the Levitical order tied to lineage, Jesus’s priesthood is about righteousness, signifying true connection with God. Remember, Jesus removed sin, offering a new way to relate to God—he…

Hebrews, Part 8
Passage: Hebrews 6:13 – 7:28 In this message, Daniel Goepfrich reminded us that spiritual summers can feel tough, hot, and barren like a drought if we neglect our faith and drift from God. But we have everything we need to thrive in Christ, not just survive. Jesus is our eternal high priest, forever making intercession for us. His ministry is perfect, unlike the priests of the Old Testament, and this was foreshadowed by the Old Testament priest, Melchizedek. Through him,…

Hebrews, Part 5
Passage: Hebrews 3:1 – 4:13 In this message, Daniel Goepfrich examined the second warning in the book of Hebrews: the danger of disbelief. Much like the first generation of Israelites who came out of Egypt, Christians who are drifting can develop an “evil, unbelieving heart that forsakes the living God.” In Numbers 13-14, the nation did not believe that God could deliver them from the Canaanites, so they were not allowed to enter Canaan. Christians who turn away from Jesus…
