A lot of times, we view the "discipline of God" as a punishment or a sign that He’s angry with us. But the truth is entirely different! In this powerful deep-dive into Hebrews 12:3-29, Pastor Joel Dover reveals that God’s discipline isn't an act of anger—it’s the ultimate proof of His love and your identity as His child.

By looking back at the inspiring legacies of heroes like Noah, Abraham,...

The Hebrews believers were wailing in their faith and some were considering returning to their former way of live in Judaism.

Are you living in the "yard" or the "Holy of Holies"? In the Old Covenant, access to God was full of "governors"—mechanical restrictions that kept people at a distance. There were walls for Gentiles, courts for women, and a massive veil that kept almost everyone out of the presence of God. But everything changed on a Friday at Calvary. By the finished work of Jesus, the veil wasn't just moved—it w...

Pastor Joel continues our look at the eight portraits of Jesus in Hebrews, which form one of the richest apologetic sections in the entire Bible. The writer builds the case for the divinity of Jesus Christ and encourages the Hebrews to stay firmly rooted in their faith. Security in Christ is realized for a believer when we abide in our faith.

Pastor Joel takes us through Hebrews 3 as we look at the third portrait of Jesus in the Hebrews study. Today we will see that Jesus is superior to Moses, and that we should hold fast to our faith and not turn back from following Christ.

Pastor Joel continues our Hebrews study with a portrait of Jesus as the redeemer of Man. Why was it necessary for Jesus to come in the flesh? Find out this week!

Hebrews is a tremendous book that builds an apologetic for Jesus as the fulfillment of God's plan of redemption. The first half of Hebrews gives us eight portraits of Jesus, and the final chapters relay the fullness of redemption on Christ Jesus. Join Pastor Joel for this new study as we begin in chapter 1 with a message titled "Jesus is the Revelation of God."

Pastor Joel will take us through Matthew 24, sometimes called the Little Apocalypse. In this passage, Jesus speaks about the close of the age and His second coming. Join us as we discuss Biblical Eschatology and learn about Jesus' teachings on the end of the age.
