Faith is a central concept in Christianity, but we often misunderstand what faith is. In Hebrews, we come to see what faith is in a powerful way.

God never took pleasure in sacrifices and offerings. So, Jesus became the perfect sacrifice and showed us that obedience is what God takes pleasure in.

  Often we choose the easy way out, with the result that we don’t mature like we should. When we get comfortable spiritually, we can stunt our spiritual growth. There’s a way forward, but it takes more than what we can do on our own.

When we don’t have confidence, it’s hard to get it back. This is especially true in our spiritual lives. The good news is that we don’t have to get our own confidence, because Jesus has done everything we need to have confidence.

Jesus is...well, it’s complicated. The author of Hebrews can’t describe Jesus with a simple phrase. He makes a long list--and he’s just getting started.

What is my purpose? It's a question that every one of us has asked. If we wanted to become the people God created us to be, we need to know the right answer.

What we want in life changes all the time. And often the thing we most desire today is not what will lead us where we want to go in the future. We need something deeper than our desires in order to live into God's future. Thankfully, the Bible shows us what we are missing.

In order to become who God wants you to be a decade from now, you have to start doing the right things now. In the Bible, Abraham showed the kind of step to take in order to change our future. The right step can make all the difference.

No matter how amazing your 2020 is going to be for you, you will face hard times. You can't control what you face in 2020, but you can control how you respond. In Psalm 77, we learn the key to thriving in the middle of pain.

There is an open invitation to the kingdom of God. Jesus taught that the key to being welcome is not being worthy, but something very different.
