Hebrews
Draw Near… Hold Firm… Run with Perseverance
Hebrews is a foundational book of Scripture, one that every Christian should understand. It reveals that Jesus is unsurpassed! All of the Old Testament worship practices pointed to Him, the one born to die as our guiltless substitute. In Hebrews we see the bridge formed between the Old and New Testaments as we discover how the Old Testament shadows are fulfilled and brought to life in Jesus, the Lamb of God. Hebrews also introduces Jesus as our Great High Priest and helps us learn about how to draw near to Him, hold firm in faith, and run with perseverance the race marked out for us.

Ephesians
Saved by Grace, Living in Power
The people of the church at ancient Ephesus were very much like us today, and the letter the Apostle Paul wrote to them is just as relevant to our lives as to theirs. Ephesians reveals the transforming power of Christ, making ones who were once darkness into light in the Lord. This brief but potent epistle teaches us who we truly are in Christ and how we can live worthy of our calling in all our relationships and circumstances.
