Pastor Mick Catron teaches this introductory message on the New Testament Book of Hebrews. In it, Mick walks us thru chapter 1:1-4, and then gives a fly-by overview of the two major themes of the book, namely, that Jesus is superior to everyone and everything that led up to him in the O.T. heroes and religious worship, and the serious warning to not return back to the pre-Jesus pattern.

Pastor Mick concludes the "God's Incredible Word" series with a final study - "The Final Chapter". This study gives a fly-by overview of the two grand themes of the Bible. Namely, the Restoration of Man's Broken Relationship With God, and the Restoration of God's Kingdom. We then end up looking at the Glorious Return of Jesus from Rev. 19.

Pastor Mick continues the "God's Incredible Word" series, this time with part 2 of the New Testament Hero - Paul (Saul). In this study we see Paul's pattern of teaching at times mirrored his two questions asked at his conversion. Namely, "Who are you Lord?", and "What shall I do?". In Col. 1:13-23, we see ten specific descriptions of Jesus that make Him incomparable to any other. As well, the admonition of what to do -- continue in the faith.

Pastor Mick continues the "God's Incredible Word" series, this time with part 1 of the New Testament Hero - Paul (Saul). In this study we see three glimpses of Paul - 1) The Pharisee, 2) The Persecutor, and 3) The Sold-Out-Disciple of Christ. The incredible transformation of Paul is truly an encouraging word that no one is outside the realm of being touched and dramatically changed by God.

Pastor Mick continues the "God's Incredible Word" series, this time with part 2 of the New Testament Hero - Peter". In this study we see a central theme of Peters teaching - namely, that the Christian is an "alien", or temporary resident, during our time on earth. We've been born again to a Heavenly citizenship. Mick shares some of the blessings and challenges our our true Heavenly citizenship.

Due to technical difficulties, the study ended prematurely, just as Mick was sharing that we Christians, like Hebrew National hotdogs, answer to a higher authority. Thusly, living our alien-lifestyle can also subject us to suffering for doing what is right in God's eyes.

Pastor Mick continues the "God's Incredible Word" series, this time moving into the New Testament. Today he looks at glimpses of the apostle Peter - "NT Heroes: Peter The Rock". We see specific glimpses of the faith and failure of Peter, and how God molded him into a stable man (a rock) and used him mightily in the spread of the gospel in the first century.

Pastor Mick concludes our look of Old Testament Heroes, this time with part 3of Isaiah, from Isaiah 53 - what Mick describes as possibly the BEST chapter in the O.T. Mick walks us thru the chapter that predicts so accurately the suffering and redemptive sacrifice of Christ some 700 years B.C.

Pastor Mick continues our look of Old Testament Heroes, this time with part 2 of Isaiah, from Isaiah 1. Mick walks us thru the chapter which is an example of one of Isaiah's main and repeating messages - namely, that Israel has left the Lord in favor of regional idols and false gods, all the while maintaining an outer form of worship. We read God's perspective on this hypocrisy and the warning of national demise if they don't return to the Lord.

Pastor Mick takes us on our third look at specific Old Testament Heroes. This time is part 1 of Isaiah, from Isaiah 6:1-11. Mick introduces Isaiah by taking us on a fast forward tour of the Jewish history overview from Hero #1, Abraham, to apx. 1400 years later with Isaiah. We see Isaiah's call to serve in chapter 6, with many practical applications about our service to our Lord Jesus.

In this study, Pastor Mick takes us on the next phase of Moses' call - to address Pharaoh directly ten times. The first nine times result in him being scorned and rejected by the King. The tenth time, with the plague of the firstborn's death and Passover, he and the people are expelled and headed toward freedom. Mick compares their physical deliverance to the spiritual deliverance we have through Christ.
