Enter My Rest! (Hebrews 3:1-4:1)



We live in a fast-paced culture, and our lives are busy. Yet the author of Hebrews says that one of the marks of the new humanity in Chirst is rest. Sin keeps us from rest because sin is deceitful and causes us to focus on our outward behavior (an exhausting, frustrating endeavor) rather than the sin behind our sins - unbelief. That's where Jesus meets us and helps us find a deeper sense of rest. [Ryan Sutherland]

Lower Than the Angels (Hebrews 2:5-18)

In this sermon we see that God has a special place for humanity in his Kingdom - we were always meant to be rulers! That means that we are destined for greatness that exceeds the angels.

But as we all know, that is not the way the world currently is. So how do we get there? The answer is that through Jesus God is restoring mankind to our original purpose and calling. [Ryan Sutherland]

Supremacy Over Angels (Heb 1:1-2:3)

We continue our study of the book of Hebrews by seeing how Jesus is God's superior Word over the angels. He is superior in his beginning by being begotten, not made; in his name as Son; and in his relationship to the Father. [Ryan Sutherland]

God's Final Word (Hebrews 1:1-4)



We're kicking off the new year by starting a new series on the book of Hebrews titled, The Supremacy of Christ: An Overview of the Old Testament. We'll be spending the next few months studying the book of Hebrews (which is basically a commentary on the Old Testament) to try and better understand the Old Testament.

In this first sermon we examine the importance of understanding the Old Testament if we want to fully appreciate the life, death, and resurrection of Christ for us. [Ryan Sutherland]
