We chase confidence in all the wrong places, then wonder why fear keeps winning when life gets hard. We open Hebrews 10 to see how the finished work of Jesus and the resurrection create a clean conscience, steady hope, and a community that helps us hold on. 

• why Easter confidence is built for dark days 
• welcoming the seasoned churchgoer, the seeker and the skeptic 
• what Hebrews means by confidence through the blood of Jesus 
• defining sin as missing the mark 
• the three default moves: ignoring sin, outperforming others and trying to pay for it 
• why endless religious effort is exhausting and cannot erase guilt 
• the jet ski story as a picture of self-reliance and suffering 
• “it is finished” as the foundation for assurance 
• drawing near with honesty plus full assurance 
• holding fast because Jesus is faithful even when we are not 
• stirring one another up through encouragement, love, good works and meeting together 

Grab one of the cards that’s in front of you. It’ll give you a chance to jot down a prayer. It’ll give you a chance to meet with the pastor, receive prayer. There will be a number of us praying on the back porch if you want to join us.
