We're blessed to hear from our Senior Pastor, Jeff Ellis, this morning as he brings us a message as we jump back into the second part of our series through the book of Hebrews.

We don’t use flip phones, VHS tapes, or paper maps anymore—because something better has replaced them! But did you know the same is true for the way we connect with God? Hebrews 8 tells us that the Old Covenant is obsolete—God has given us a new and better way through Jesus Christ. No more endless sacrifices. No more religious rituals. Jesus’ work is finished, and we have direct access to God!

In this message, we’ll unpack:

✅ Why the Old Covenant was never enough

✅ How Jesus’ sacrifice changed everything

✅ What it means to live in the freedom of the New Covenant

📖 Key Verse: Hebrews 8:6 – “But now Jesus, our High Priest, has been given a ministry that is far superior to the old priesthood, for He is the one who mediates for us a far better covenant with God, based on better promises.”

We're blessed to hear from our Senior Pastor, Jeff Ellis, this morning as he brings us a message as we jump back into the second part of our series through the book of Hebrews.

Melchizedek is one of the most mysterious figures in the Bible, appearing briefly in Genesis and then resurfacing in Hebrews 7 as a powerful foreshadowing of Jesus Christ. In this message, we explore why Melchizedek is called both a king and a priest—something unheard of in the Old Testament—and how this points us directly to Jesus, our eternal High Priest and King.

When life gets difficult, we often turn to old habits, distractions, or religious routines, but Hebrews 7 reminds us that Jesus is the only one who can truly save and sustain us. This sermon will challenge and encourage you to trust in Christ more fully, knowing that He intercedes for you, understands your struggles, and offers grace and mercy in your time of need.
