What is real? Our culture has loved to dive into what is shadow and what is substance. The author of Hebrews helps us to see that there is much around us that both is real yet points an even better reality. So how does the New Covenant with a new understanding of what is real help us to know God better? -- New to Heritage? Want to get more involved? Looking for a Group or Ministry Team? Let us kno...

There is a problem in the church. Not just in a single church, but in every church. We all tend to drift toward spiritual complacency.

If we had the time, we could tell each other how busy we are. But in our rush to accomplish more, are we missing out on the promises of rest that God has given to us? One of the great promises of God to those that follow Him is that He gives rest. So why are we restless?   --  New to Heritage?  Want to get more involved?  Looking for a Group or Ministry Team?  Let us know...

Hebrews 3 reminds us of one of the greatest leaders from the Old Testament, Moses. While Moses was used greatly of God, there is simply no comparison when he is placed next to Christ. Hear Jacob Revels as he opens the Word of God to show us how Jesus is the better Moses.  --  New to Heritage?  Want to get more involved?  Looking for a Group or Ministry Team?  Let us know a...

After the strong introduction to the book, the author takes a step past the prophets and tells his readers that Jesus is better than the angels!

While the book has an unknown author and is written to an unknown audience, the claims of the book of Hebrews are very clear. From the first words of the book, God is speaking. The question is, are we listening? -- New to Heritage? Want to get more involved? Looking for a Group or Ministry Team?

God has left believers on the earth for a purpose - to tell others about the good news of the gospel. In the last of our Next Steps, guest pastor Mike Nolen helps us to see why sharing the gospel is a requirement for those who would follow after Jesus.  -- New to Heritage? Want to get more involved?

We accomplish more together than we ever could alone. With that in mind, we must work together in teams for the purpose of accomplishing the mission of the church, making disciples of Jesus Christ.  -- New to Heritage? Want to get more involved?

One of the greatest ways to demonstrate our love for God is to live generously. Through the Bible, money (and the willingness to part with it) is used as a litmus test for our willingness to be generous in other areas of our life.  -- New to Heritage? Want to get more involved?

One of the best ways to ensure continued growth is to pursue Christ in community. In many churches today this looks like being a part of a group. Some may call these Life Groups, Sunday School Classes, or simply "groups." Whatever the term, the Bible is clear that followers of Jesus follow Him together. -- New to Heritage?

As we take our spiritual next steps, we must remember that growth never happens in a day. It happens daily. This is why our daily walk matters so much. In fact, one of Jesus' final teachings before His crucifixion reminds us that we are called to "dwell" or "abide" in Him. -- New to Heritage? Want to get more involved?

From the first century, the church set aside the first day of the week as a time of gathering. While there is not a command in the New Testament related to the day of the gathering, the gathering itself makes a big difference in our lives and in our world.  -- New to Heritage?

Believing the gospel is the first step of the Christian life. But what comes next?

The good news of Jesus changes everything. It changes our hearts and our hope which impacts everything that we say and do. It changes us from the inside out. But responding to the good news of Jesus is much more complicated. As we celebrate the resurrection of Jesus, we gather together to study the best news that we could ever hear. Jesus is alive! -- New to Heritage? Want to get more involved? Lo...

As we enter the Easter season, it's important to remember who God has made us in Jesus Christ.

The Kingdom of God is precious. But how precious is it? Jesus tells a few parables about the value of the kingdom and how far those who find it will go to make it theirs.  -- New to Heritage?

While the beginning of the chapter focuses on the response of the different soils to the seed of the Gospel, this next parable breaks down two different seeds and their fundamental differences requiring different responses from the master of the field.  -- New to Heritage?

When the Messiah encounters broken people, how does He respond? What kind of people does He turn away? The answers to these questions may seem counterintuitive, but Matthew traces Jesus' words through these themes and helps us to see how He handles both blasphemous rulers and bruised reeds.  -- New to Heritage?

While there are those who tend to like rules, the Pharisees go far beyond rules and structure for themselves and began to impose heavy burdens on the people. Through this lens, they looked for ways to trap Jesus and His followers. Jesus confronts this behavior as He shows that He is the Lord of the Sabbath and the Lord of Rest. -- New to Heritage?

In chapter eleven, John the Baptist, the forerunner of Jesus, is in prison and disillusioned with some unmet expectations about the work and mission of the Messiah. Jesus leans on His work to that point to establish Himself as the Messiah and then leans into what belief and unbelief look like in the hearts of hearers.  -- New to Heritage?

When someone is called to follow after Jesus, what does that mean for their life? In the irony of following Jesus, being a follower also means being sent. As we examine His first followers and His instructions to them, we also see what is expected for any who would choose to walk in His footsteps. -- New to Heritage? Want to get more involved?

"The harvest is plentiful, but the laborers are few." These words of Jesus leave us with a few questions such as, "Where do the laborers come from?" As we study this statement of Jesus, we will look at what it means to go from being lost to laborer. -- New to Heritage? Want to get more involved? Looking for a Group or Ministry Team?
