"Complete Surrender to Christ the King"
Texts: Hebrews 12:1-2; John 18:28-40
Eric Liddell, also known as The Flying Scotsman, helps us understand what it means to orient our lives around the Kingdom of God. Jesus' dialogue with Pontius Pilate reminds us that His Kingdom is not one of swords or spears, but a spiritual Kingdom to which his followers belong. May we always place Him first in our lives.

The Marathon of Faith - November 19, 2006
"The Marathon of Faith"
Texts: Hebrews 11-12:2; Psalm 73:24-28; Mark 13:1-8
The author of Hebrews exhorts his readers to hold fast and to follow hard after Christ as we run this great marathon of faith. Christianity is not something that we can take up when it is convenient, but an all-consuming obsession that leaves time for nothing else. To run this race, we must lay aside everything that would hinder us and fix our eyes on Jesus.

The Requirements of the New Covenant - November 12, 2006
"The Requirements of the New Covenant"
Texts: Hebrews 10:11-24; Ruth 3:1-4:17; Mark 12:35-44
Hebrews chapter 10 provides some snapshots of ways in which the New Covenant has different requirements than the Old Covenant. While the Old Covenant was structured on lists and laws, the New Covenant is based upon the Law of Love. We give our all, not because we are required to, but because we are motivated to respond to God's great love for us.

The Old and New Covenants - November 5, 2006
"The Old and New Covenants"
Texts: Genesis 15; Hebrews 9:1-15; Mark 12:28-34
By looking more closely at the covenant traditions of the ancient culture, Pastor Jon highlights more ways in which the author of Hebrews demonstrates that the New Covenant is greater than and fulfills the Old Covenant. We learn that when Jesus gives His life on the cross, He is fulfilling the promise made to Abram in Genesis 15.
