Only Jesus

Hebrews 9:1–10

6 October 2026

Only Jesus can bring guilty sinners near to a holy God and cleanse a guilty conscience. Walking through the earthly sanctuary of Hebrews 9, this message shows how the tabernacle, its priesthood, and its sacrifices all pointed forward to Christ — the only one who can open the way to God and wash our guilt-stained conscience clean.

Made His Own

Hebrews 8:7–13

27 September 2026

Through Christ, God supplies what his people could never produce. In Hebrews 8:7–13, we see God respond to an unfaithful people with a better covenant. He changes our hearts and makes us his own, and he forgives our sins so that all his people will know him. We cannot earn what God freely gives, and through Christ he receives sinners who turn to him in faith.

We Have Christ

Hebrews 8:1–6

20 September 2026

We have Christ, our reigning and faithful High Priest. His finished sacrifice brings us near to God, His ministry continues on our behalf, and His better covenant gives us lasting hope and assurance.

All We Need

Hebrews 7:20–28

13 September 2026

Hebrews 7:20-28 gives four reasons Jesus is all we need to draw near to God: His priesthood is established by God's oath, it will never end, He always lives to intercede for us, and He offered Himself once for all. A better job, better health, and faithful friends are good gifts—but only Christ can meet our deepest need.

The Better Hope

Hebrews 7:11-19

6 September 2026

Hebrews 7:11-19 shows why the Levitical priesthood could never bring sinners fully to God — and why Christ, our everlasting priest with an indestructible life, gives weary sinners a better hope. We cannot work our way to God, but Jesus can bring us all the way to Him.

The Oath of Grace

Hebrews 6:13-20

23 August 2026

God’s promises do not depend on the strength of our faith, the ease of our circumstances, or our ability to hold everything together. In Hebrews 6:13–20, Pastor Ben Honeyford shows how God confirms His unchanging promise with an oath so that His people can have strong assurance. When waiting is long and faith feels weak, we can hold fast to this truth: Jesus Christ is our eternal High Priest, and our hope is securely anchored in Him.

The Grace of Assurance

Hebrews 6:9–12

16 August 2026

Our good works don't start the fire of salvation, but they reveal it's burning. In Hebrews 6:9–12, Pastor Ben Honeyford shows how Christ alone is the ground of our assurance, and how love, diligence, faith, and patience become the visible evidence that His grace is truly at work in us. This message offers steady, gospel-centered encouragement for anyone longing to know their salvation is secure.

The Gift of Grace

Hebrews 6:1-8

9 August 2026

Spiritual experience is not the same as spiritual life. In Hebrews 6:1–8, we are called to press forward in maturity, warned against the danger of falling away, and reminded that grace — not our effort alone — produces the fruit that accompanies salvation. The Christian life begins by grace, continues by grace, and bears fruit by grace.

Growing in Grace

Hebrews 5:11-14

19 July 2026

Bad health doesn't happen overnight — it's the result of poor habits and daily neglect. The author of Hebrews says the same thing can happen to our souls. Hebrews 5:11–14 exposes how hearts grow dull, why immaturity keeps us looking inward instead of upward, and where true spiritual growth is actually found — not in trying harder, but in continually feeding on Christ.

Perfectly Qualified

Hebrews 5:5-10

12 July 2026

When everything is on the line, you want the most qualified surgeon. How much more so when standing before a holy God. Hebrews 5:5–10 answers three questions every weary sinner asks: Can I trust the one who represents me? Does he understand what I'm going through? Has he done enough to save me? The answer to all three is Jesus — perfectly qualified, perfectly appointed, perfectly sufficient.
