The New Covenant: A Study of HebrewsIn Hebrews 7 we meet one of the most mysterious figures in the Bible—Melchizedek.

Unlike the priests of the Old Testament, Jesus is permanent, perfect, and the only true mediator who brings us near to God. In this message, Pastor Russ unpacks what Hebrews 7 teaches about Jesus, why He's greater than any substitute we try to rely on, and how His better way gives us lasting hope, forgiveness, and access to God.Week: Hebrews 7
