Welcome to Hebrews.
This weekend, we had the privilege of welcoming guest speaker Heather Gorman, who led us through an enriching study of the book of Hebrews as part of our Bible Series.
Hebrews stands out as a profound book, delving into themes of faith, suffering, and the nature of Jesus Christ. Central to its message is the powerful affirmation of Jesus’ supremacy. The author of Hebrews carefully compares Jesus to key figures in Jewish tradition—not to diminish their importance, but to emphasize that Jesus is the ultimate fulfillment of God’s revelation. He is presented as both fully divine and fully human, uniquely capable of understanding our struggles.
For believers who are weary or disillusioned, Hebrews offers a message of hope. It reassures us that Jesus, in His divinity and humanity, knows our trials intimately and is ever-present to help. We are reminded that we do not walk this journey alone; our faith is strengthened in community as we support one another while keeping our eyes on Christ.
Above all, Hebrews calls us to persevere, even when life feels disorienting. It encourages us to hold fast to our faith, knowing that Jesus is with us every step of the way, offering His strength and understanding.
“When life is disorienting, don’t give up on your faith.”
