Aletheia Church, Providence RI

Most of us know how to start. Hebrews asks a harder question: are you prepared to finish? In this message from Hebrews 5:11–6:12, we look at the quiet presumptions that harden a heart: assuming grace is automatic, living off past experiences, and believing we already know enough. Then we fix our eyes on Jesus, our living Apostle and High Priest and the King of righteousness, who meets us in our weakness and leads us all the way home.

Where do you go to find rest? Hebrews 4 reminds us that God’s rest is not just a future promise but a present reality, and that we were made to live in it. In this sermon, we look at the paradox of rest: if you have believed, you’ve entered God’s rest, and now we’re invited to strive to enter it.

Life after the exodus still feels like a wilderness. In Hebrews 3, we’re invited to slow down and consider Jesus, the One greater than Moses, who leads His people home. We also face a sobering warning: hearts don’t harden overnight, but drift by drift. Discover why perseverance isn’t the price of admission but the evidence we belong to Christ, and why we were never meant to walk this road alone.

Jesus didn't just come near us—he came for us. In Hebrews 2 we see who humanity was always meant to be, and how Jesus, who knows temptation firsthand, delivers us from the power of sin, the fear of death, and the rule of the devil. Whether you've followed him for years or you're still wrestling with the questions, come and marvel again at the truth, grace, and changing power of the gospel.

Where does your attention go? In Hebrews 1:5–2:1, we see angels, the most impressive created beings in Scripture, worshiping and serving God the Son. If they give Him their closest attention, how much more should we? In a world where we crown ourselves the highest authority, this passage invites us to stop drifting and start paying attention to the Son.

Every soul runs out of gas eventually — even the most on-fire faith cools without something to sustain it. This week, we begin a new series in the book of Hebrews, tracing one explosive claim: Jesus Christ is God’s final word. Come discover why drifting is normal, why community isn’t optional, and why the claims of Christ are worth testing for yourself.

We spend our lives trying to change ourselves into someone better — and it never quite sticks. This week we close out our walk through Ephesians 2:1–10, tracing how gospel change doesn't start with you trying harder, it starts with grace coming for you. If you've ever wondered whether transformation is actually possible, start here.

Grace doesn't find you on a stage — it finds you in the grave. In this message from our Start Here series, we walk through Ephesians 2:1–10 to see the state we were in, what God did for us in Christ, and how we receive it: not by works, but by faith. Wherever you're starting from, start here.

Before the good news can be good, we have to be honest about the bad news. In the first message of our Start Here series, we sit with Ephesians 2 and ask the question most of us avoid: what if the truth about us is worse than we think — and the mercy waiting for us is bigger than we imagined? Because when God opens our eyes to what's true, anything is possible.

In the final message of our Family series, we step into Acts 16 and watch the gospel rewrite two very different households in a single night. If you've ever wondered what your life is actually aimed at, this is for you. Family was never meant to end with us — it's the vehicle God uses to send us out.
