Feeling offended or hurt? In today's episode, Carrie Pickett dives deep into the subtle yet impactful nature of offense and how it can affect your relationships with others and even with God.

In the message “CAN'T BE SHAKEN,” Pastor Rich Whitter unpacks Hebrews 12:12–28, calling believers to renewed strength, holy living, and unshakable faith. This passage urges weary hearts to lift drooping hands and strengthen weak knees, reminding us that following Jesus requires perseverance and intentional obedience.Pastor Rich highlights the contrast between what is temporary and what is eternal. While everything that can be shaken will eventually fall away, God's kingdom remains forever. The message emphasizes the seriousness of responding to God's voice, choosing reverence over complacency, and gratitude over fear. As believers, we are not anchored to unstable circumstances but to an unchanging King.We hope this message encourages you to stand firm, walk in holiness, and live with confidence—knowing that when everything else shakes, those who belong to Christ remain secure in a kingdom that cannot be shaken.

Over the coming months and through our study of the book of Hebrews, we aim to meditate frequently on the glory of Jesus Christ. May our souls be revived by a constant view of his glory - in this book which invites us to consider Christ Jesus, the exalted Savior of weary pilgrims like us. This week we look to Hebrews 12:18-29.1. The New Covenant Place is a City“But as it is, they desire a better country, that is, a heavenly one. Therefore God is not ashamed to be called their God, for he has prepared for them a city.” Hebrews 11:16“…behold, on Mount Zion stood the Lamb...” Revelation 14:1“…the holy city, new Jerusalem, coming down out of heaven from God, prepared as a bride adorned for her husband.” Revelation 21:22. The New Covenant Place is a Gathering3. The New Covenant Place is a Reunion“And I heard a loud voice from the throne saying, “Behold, the dwelling place of God is with man. He will dwell with them, and they will be his people, and God himself will be with them as their God.” Revelation 21:34. The New Covenant Place is Unshakeable “…I will build my church, and the gates of hell shall not prevail against it.” Matthew 16:18“Then I saw a new heaven and a new earth, for the first heaven and the first earth had passed away, and the sea was no more.” Revelation 21:1“No longer will there be anything accursed, but the throne of God and of the Lamb will be in it, and his servants will worship him. They will see his face, and his name will be on their foreheads. And night will be no more. They will need no light of lamp or sun, for the Lord God will be their light, and they will reign forever and ever.” Revelation 22:3-5Life Group Discussion Questions: lifechurchnc.com/hebrewsLife Church exists to glorify God by making disciples who treasure Christ, grow together, and live on mission.

Unpack the essence of the new covenant! Mike reveals how Jesus' sacrifice transforms our relationship with God, highlighting the crucial difference between punishment and loving correction.

In the message “DON'T LOSE HEART,” Pastor Rich Whitter walks through Hebrews 12:3–11, calling believers to persevere by fixing their eyes on Jesus. This passage reminds us to consider Christ, who endured hostility, suffering, and the cross without giving up—so that we do not grow weary or lose heart in our own struggles.Pastor Rich explains that hardship is not a sign of God's absence, but often evidence of His loving discipline. God uses trials to train, shape, and strengthen His children, producing righteousness and peace in those who submit to His work. This message encourages us to endure with trust, knowing that God's correction is purposeful, His love is constant, and His refining process is always for our good.

As we examine these verses, we are talking about the attitude of bitterness.I have been to the hospital many times with people who were waiting on testresults. I have stood there when the doctor walked into the room and said, “I'msorry to tell you, but you have cancer.” I have received phone calls frompeople who went to the emergency room thinking they had a surface problem, onlyto discover they had pancreatic cancer or some other very serious and dangerousform of cancer. We call it the “C-word.” Nobody wants to hear the C-word. Noone wants to hear the word cancer. Rightnow, I am dealing with sciatic pain. On the surface, it is very painful. Butbeneath that surface pain is a deeper problem—a root cause. In much the sameway, many of the problems we experience in life are surface symptoms of deeperheart issues. Attitudes like bitterness often show themselves through anger,wrath, vengeance, and hatred. These attitudes destroy our lives.Bitternessdefiles and spreads. It not only destroys the person who has it, but it is alsocontagious, destroying others as they become involved in our stories,complaints, and evil talk. My friend, bitterness is a disease of the soul. Itis a disease of the spirit and of the attitude, and it must be dealt with. Onlyby the grace of God can we deal with it.Weneed to realize that many of the surface problems in our relationships, which includelying, stealing, fighting, and other actions which we can visibly identify,come from invisible surface causes of our attitudes that are anger, worry,fear, insecurity and other emotional attitudes. But underneath these attitudesare the root problems that come down to basically three things, which are bitterness,guilt, or misplaced temporal values. Those are three major root problems. Butbeneath all of them is one ultimate root cause—pride.  Pridekeeps us from listening to the Spirit of God. Pride leads us into disobediencewhen God tells us what we must do and we refuse to do it. Pride keeps us fromasking for forgiveness for our guilt, or from not willing to forgive those whohave hurt or offended us. Pride keeps us from receiving the grace of God todeal with the problem. Both James and Peter reminds us that only by humblingourselves can we receive God's grace (James 4:5-7; 1 Peter 5:6-11).Thatis why Paul continues in verses 31–32: “Let all bitterness, wrath, anger,clamor, and evil speaking be put away from you, with all malice. And be kind toone another, tenderhearted, forgiving one another, just as God in Christforgave you.” So what is the answer? The answer is forgiveness—forgiving oneanother, even as God, for Christ's sake, has forgiven us. Oneof the main reasons we must deal with bitterness is that it grieves the HolySpirit. When we are bitter, we are not listening to Him. We are not payingattention to His voice. We are not obeying His Word—especially the words ofJesus, who taught us to forgive one another, even if we must do it again andagain, up to seventy times seven. Bitterness is often the result of unresolvedconflict. Sometimes it goes all the way back to childhood—something that hurtus deeply, something we never properly dealt with or resolved. That unresolvedpain can still be destroying our lives today. Myfriend, bitterness is the “B-word.” Let's deal with the B-word in our lives bybeing kind, tenderhearted, and forgiving. The Holy Spirit is characterized byjoy, love, peace, longsuffering, patience, and kindness—the fruit of theSpirit. When we obey Him, that is what He produces within us, and that is whatboth the Holy Spirit and the Father delight in.

Travis Rymer preaches "The Heavenly Scene" from Hebrews 12:14-24, in this Sunday evening gathering of Grace Harbor Church.

Send us a textIn Part 17 of our verse-by-verse study through Hebrews, the author turns from warning to encouragement. After some of the most sobering passages in the letter, he reminds his readers of the hope they confessed, the suffering they endured, and the confidence they must not throw away. We'll see how drawing near to God, holding fast to our hope, and encouraging one another are grounded not in our faithfulness, but in God's. This is a call to endurance—rooted in Christ, sustained by promise, and confident in what is yet to come.The Biblical Roots MinistriesOur websiteOur YouTube ChannelProf. Solberg's BlogSupport our Ministry (Thank you!)CHAPTERS00:00 Intro and recap04:05 Hebrews 12:1–2 (Run the Race, Fix Your Eyes)10:46 Hebrews 12:3–6 (Consider Christ)17:36 Hebrews 12:7–11 (God's Loving Discipline)23:32 Hebrews 12:12–17 (A Warning Not to Fall Short)33:20 Hebrews 12:18–24 (From Sinai to Zion)44:11 Hebrews 12:25–29 (An Unshakable Kingdom)

Following Jesus is not a sprint—it is a lifelong race that requires endurance, focus, and faith. In Hebrews 12, we are reminded that faithful perseverance as a disciple is fueled by a deep delight in Christ. Surrounded by a great cloud of witnesses, believers are called to lay aside every weight and sin, fix their eyes on Jesus, and run with endurance the race set before them. When the journey is hard and weariness sets in, we find strength by considering Christ, who endured the cross for the joy set before Him.
