- 849 Something Better for Us Hebrews 11:39–40 (Jesus Is Better, Part 36)
Friday, September 18th: Hebrews 11:39–40 explains that the heroes of faith were commended by God even though they did not receive the completed promise during their lifetimes. They looked forward to Jesus; we look back at His finished work. Together, believers from every generation await the final resurrection and fulfillment of God’s promises.

41 min - 848 Faith Either Way Hebrews 11:32–38 (Jesus Is Better, Part 35)
Thursday, September 17th: Hebrews 11:32–38 shows that faith does not always produce the same visible outcome.

Wednesday, September 16th: Hebrews 11:30–31 presents two powerful examples of faith.

Faith keeps walking before the walls fall, and grace gives people with complicated pasts a new place in God’s story.

Tuesday, September 15th: Hebrews 11:23–29 shows Moses choosing identification with God’s people over the comfort, status, and wealth of Egypt. He trusted the invisible God, kept the Passover, and crossed the Red Sea by faith. The pleasures and treasures of this world are temporary, but Jesus is worth more.

Friday, September 11th: Enrich your faith begins at 10:01. Hebrews 11:13–16 describes faithful people who died without seeing every promise fulfilled. They lived as foreigners and temporary residents while seeking a better country prepared by God. Through Jesus, we can live faithfully here while knowing this broken world is not our permanent home—and God is not ashamed to be called our God.

Thursday, September 10th: Hebrews 11:11–12 remembers Sarah as someone who trusted the faithfulness of God even when His promise seemed humanly impossible.
