We've all felt it, that moment after a sin where the voice in your head says, "God's done with you." Or "He's furious." Or "He just doesn't understand." But what if that's false advertising?In this opening message of our new series, we dive into Hebrews 4:14–16 to discover what Jesus actually does, feels, and thinks when we sin. Spoiler: it's not what most of us expect.You'll learn:Why Jesus mediates for you, even when you keep falling into the same sinWhy Jesus sympathizes with you, not against youWhy Jesus understands you, because He's been thereDon't let shame keep you hiding. The throne room of grace is open. Come boldly.
Jesus, incite my heart in places where discouragement wants to live.Scripture: Hebrews 10:24Keywords: Motivation; encouragement; mentoring; love; kindness; making a difference.Best of, Summer.
In this Sunday message, Pastor Rich Whitter teaches from Hebrews 13:7–25, calling believers to a steady, enduring faith rooted in sound doctrine, faithful leadership, and unwavering devotion to Christ. The closing chapter of Hebrews reminds us that worship is not confined to a moment or a melody, but expressed through obedience, gratitude, perseverance, and lives that honor God daily.Hebrews 13 challenges us to remember those who lead us in faith, reject unstable teachings, endure hardship with confidence, and continually offer a sacrifice of praise to God through Jesus Christ.This message will encourage you to move beyond occasional worship and embrace a lifestyle of faithful, continual praise.Scripture: Hebrews 13:7–25Speaker: Pastor Rich WhitterLife Pointe ChurchSubscribe for more biblical teaching and Sunday messages from Life Pointe Church.

Join us as Kevin Jamison considers Hebrews 3:12-15 and the call to encourage one another daily. In the Christian journey, marked by highs and lows, we're warned not to let discouragement harden into unbelief, but to resist sin's deceitfulness together. As people who share in Christ, our words matter in shaping a community marked not by cynicism, but by steady, hope-filled encouragement.Scripture: Hebrews 3:12-15Pastor: Kevin Jamison
Scripture: Hebrews 11:8-22Speaker: Brandon EggarSeries: Hebrews
What do you do when you've done everything right and still things don't work out?This week, Pastor Hubbard confronts one of scripture's most unsettling phrases: "They all died in faith, although they had not received the things that were promised." They died still waiting, still trusting, still believing—without seeing fulfillment.So how do you walk by faith when fulfillment seems distant?In this message:• Why being "so heavenly minded you're no earthly good" is actually backwards• How to distinguish between what's significant and what's ultimate in your identity• Why heavenly-minded people engage earth most courageously• The truth that God is not ashamed to put His name on youGod is not ashamed to call you His. And when that settles in your heart, you stop living like you have something to prove and start living free.Scripture: Hebrews 11:13-16

Bring Others With You | CLIMB Series — Finale“You won't find Jesus inside the tent of your comfort zone.”In the final message of the CLIMB series, Pastor CJ Witkoe calls the church beyond personal growth and spiritual endurance into something even bigger: mission. The climb was never meant to be solo. The summit was never meant to be private. If Jesus has changed your life, the invitation is clear—bring others with you.Drawing from Hebrews 13:10–14, this message reveals a powerful truth: Jesus suffered outside the camp—outside the systems of comfort, control, religion, and predictability—to make us holy by His blood. And if we want to truly follow Him, we must be willing to step outside the camp too.In this message, you'll discover: ⛰️ Why ministry and comfort zones don't coexist
Join us as Justin Hyde walks through Hebrews 2:5-11, reflecting on Psalm 8 and God's promise for humanity amid suffering and weariness.

Scripture: Hebrews 10:19-25 Transformative Truth: For the conscience to function properly, it must be calibrated to Scripture. Let us draw near with a true heart in full assurance of faith, with our hearts sprinkled clean from an evil conscience and our bodies washed with pure water. - Hebrews 10:22 Baptism, which corresponds to this, now saves you, not as a removal of dirt from the body but as an appeal to God for a good conscience, through the resurrection of Jesus Christ, who has gone into heaven and is at the right hand of God, with angels, authorities, and powers having been subjected to him. - 1 Peter 3:21-22 For the conscience to function properly, it must be calibrated to Scripture. The Calibration of the Conscience Unless I am convicted by Scripture and plain reason – I do not accept the authority of popes and councils, for they have contradicted each other – my conscience is captive to the Word of God. I cannot and I will not recant anything, for to go against conscience is neither right nor safe. Here I stand, I cannot do otherwise. God help me. Amen. But solid food is for the mature, for those who have their power of discernment trained by constant practice to distinguish good from evil. - Hebrews 5:14 1. Education 2. Application The Conditions of the Conscience 1. Those who have a guilty conscience and know it. 2. Those who have a guilty conscience and don't know it. 3. Those who have a purified conscience and know it. 4. Those who have a purified conscience and don't know it. By this we shall know that we are of the truth and reassure our hearts before him; for whenever our heart condemns us, God is greater than our heart, and he knows everything. - 1 John 3:20 The Cross and the Conscience

Scripture: Hebrews 10:19-39Speaker: Brandon EggarSeries: Hebrews
This sermon provides a foundational understanding of what the church truly is according to Scripture. Pastor Joe Fant systematically dismantles common misconceptions—that church is merely a building, an event, a social club, or a service provider—and establishes three biblical definitions: the church is a gathering of God's people, the body of Christ, and heaven's embassy on earth. The message emphasizes that church membership means being a functioning body part with specific responsibilities, not just holding a membership card. Christians are called to be ambassadors carrying the message of reconciliation to a lost world. The sermon challenges believers to reorient their understanding and commitment to the local church, recognizing it as God's greatest earthly blessing and the primary vehicle through which He advances His gospel. Pastor Joe Fant calls for deeper involvement, faithful gathering, and a shift from consumer mentality to servant mentality, emphasizing that the church exists not for individual preferences but for God's glory and mission. Key Points: The church is not a building, meeting place, event, concert, social club, or service provider The word "church" (ekklesia) means "called out gathering" - it's fundamentally about people gathering together The church is a body where each member is a functioning body part with specific roles and responsibilities Church membership means being a vital, functioning part of the body, not just holding status or a card The church is God's embassy on earth, and believers are ambassadors carrying the message of reconciliation Gathering together is not optional but commanded in Scripture (Hebrews 10:25) Virtual church attendance cannot replace physical gathering as the church is defined by gathering When believers gather, they are to hold fast to confession, stir up one another to love and good works, and encourage each other The church belongs to God, not to individuals, and must operate according to Scripture, not personal preferences Greatest earthly blessing comes through deep involvement in the local church family The gospel message we carry is: "Be reconciled to God" Hymns and traditional songs serve as the bedrock of worship, providing language for life's most important moments Scripture Reference: Matthew 16:18 - "I will build my church" Matthew 18:15-20 - Church discipline and "where two or three are gathered" Romans 12:4-8 - The church as one body with many members having different functions 2 Corinthians 5:17-21 - Believers as ambassadors for Christ with the ministry of reconciliation Hebrews 10:23-25 - Command not to neglect meeting together Ephesians 2:19 - Fellow citizens with the saints Philippians 3 - Citizenship in heaven 1 Corinthians 10:17 - Many are one body
What is true rest? In Psalm 3, we see a man who goes to sleep the night before a battle knowing full well that he's greatly outnumbered. And he sleeps. He rests. Scientists will tell you the thing that restores the body is not the length of your sleep—it's the depth. In the same way, the Bible shows that there are all kinds of shallow ways you can get rid of tension, but none of those are the deep rest that really restores the soul. Hebrews 4 says there remains a rest for the people of God. What is it? Let's see how this passage 1) helps us understand the rest, and then 2) helps us understand how to enter the rest. This sermon was preached by Dr. Timothy Keller at Redeemer Presbyterian Church on November 5, 1989. Series: Ten Commandments 1989. Scripture: Hebrews 4:1-12.

Scripture: Hebrews 10:1-18Speaker: Brandon EggarSeries: Hebrews
Building on last week's reminder that God hears our prayers and meets us with comfort, this message from Hebrews 10:19–26 calls believers to live with confidence, conviction, and committed fellowship because of what Jesus has done. Through Christ's sacrifice, a new and living way has been opened. The barrier that once separated humanity from God has been torn down—not by religion or effort, but by the finished work of Jesus. Because of Him, we now have bold access to the presence of God. In this message, Pastor Scott Goodman walks us through three essential exhortations from Hebrews 10:

Scripture: Hebrews 11:8-19+ Faith alone secures ouracceptance with God.Genesis 15:6Ephesians 2:8–9 Romans 4:1–5+ Faith alone demands humilitybefore God and others.+ Faith obeys God's word withouthaving all the details or all the answers.James 2:21–24+ Faith is future oriented"There, peeping among the cloud-wrack above a dark rocky peak high up in the mountains, Sam saw a white star twinkle for a while. The beauty of it smote his heart, as he looked up out of the forsaken land, and hope returned to him. For like a shaft, clear and cold, the thought pierced him that in the end the Shadow was only a small and passing thing: there was light and high beauty for ever beyond its reach.” – JRRTolkien, The Return of the King.+ Faith believes God more thancircumstances+ Faith withholds nothing fromGod, no matter how precious

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.

Scripture: Hebrews 12:1-3Series: "Don't Shrink Back" Some early Christians were shrinking back from following Jesus amidst persecution. So, the author of Hebrews encouraged them to endure and remain faithful to Christ by offering a collection of Old Testament witnesses. If God did amazing things through their faith, why would we ever shrink back from our own? Challenge: Will you run with endurance and finish the race faithfully or will you shrink back? Focus: Jesus is the ultimate example of faithful endurance. Speaker: Matt Thornton, Pastor Date: December 14, 2025

Title: Season 5 Episode 1 – "Yielding Peaceful Fruit" (Rewire Your Brain Podcast) Summary: Welcome to Season 5 of the Rewire Your Brain Podcast. I'm your host, Liz Bagwell. In this Season 5 premier episode titled "Yielding Peaceful Fruit," I share with you a bit about the neuroscience of neuroplasticity, how God gave us way more power over our thoughts than we could ever imagine and the super easy prompts that help us focus in on Jesus and the positive things He is doing in our lives. Season 5 has two new updates to the format- 1) You no longer need to pause and unpause between prompts (this helps minimize an influx of beta brain waves during prayer time) and 2)I have updated the affirmations section to specifically target rewiring over negative neural pathways. Each prompt draws you closer to Jesus and helps you to see Him and all the miracles He has placed throughout your day more clearly. Today's scripture is Hebrews 12:11 and we are talking about areas of our life that God is pruning and areas that have yielded peaceful fruit.
The story of Jacob and Esau is a great example of how anger works out in a family situation. Esau and Jacob were twins, and Esau was the oldest. When their father is fooled into giving Jacob the birthright, Esau can't get ahold of his anger. We're told that Esau held a grudge against Jacob and consoled himself with thoughts of killing Jacob. And when Esau's father does pronounce a blessing on Esau, he predicts that Esau is going to be driven by anger all of his life. How can you make sure your anger does not imprison and control you? How can you make sure that you control it? This passage in Hebrews gives us some principles: 1) it tells you what anger is, and then, 2) it tells you three ways to handle it. This sermon was preached by Dr. Timothy Keller at Redeemer Presbyterian Church on April 2, 1995. Series: The Seven Deadly Sins. Scripture: Hebrews 12:14-17.
