In this episode of Christendom and the World, Pastor Andrew Preus sits down with Pastor James Wilshusen to unpack Hebrews 10 and the true reason Christians gather for worship. Together, they explore why church is more than personal devotion or ritual—it's about receiving Christ's gifts, encouraging one another in faith, and persevering as the body of Christ. They discuss what it means to "hold fast the confession of our hope," why God commands us not to neglect meeting together, and how the church equips us to endure in a world of temptation and trial. Whether you've asked yourself, "Do I really need to go to church?" or simply want to be reminded of the blessing of worship, this episode will point you to the comfort, strength, and joy found in God's Word and His people.
