    Hebrews 13 — Holding Fast to Christ and Living as His People

    In this final session of the Hebrews study, Merritt Anderson walks through Hebrews chapter 13 and brings the letter to its practical and deeply pastoral conclusion. After spending twelve chapters showing that Jesus is greater—greater than angels, Moses, the priesthood, sacrifices, and the old covenant—the writer of Hebrews closes with a call for believers to live faithfully in light of all Christ has accomplished. Hebrews 13 moves from theology into everyday life: loving one another, showing hospitality, caring for those who suffer, honoring marriage, resisting the love of money, remembering faithful leaders, and remaining anchored in the unchanging truth of Christ. Throughout the chapter, the central message remains clear: believers are called to hold fast to Christ in a world that often feels hostile, uncertain, and temporary. In this discussion the group explores: Why brotherly love and hospitality matter in seasons of hardshipWhat it means to identify with and care for those who sufferThe call to honor marriage and pursue purity in a culture of compromiseHow contentment flows from trusting the Lord rather than trusting possessionsWhy believers must remain grounded in grace instead of being led astray by lesser teachingsWhat it means to live as sojourners seeking a better and lasting cityThe encouragement found in Christ as the Great Shepherd of the sheepHebrews ends by reminding believers that we are not left to walk alone. The same Lord who purchased His people through His blood now shepherds, sustains, and equips them for every good work. After climbing the great heights of Hebrews together, the final call of the letter is both simple and profound: Hold fast to Christ. There is nothing better.

    Hebrews 12:5–11 — God’s Discipline and the Love of a Father

    In this session of the Hebrews study, Merritt Anderson leads the group through Hebrews 12:5–11, exploring the often misunderstood topic of God’s discipline. Set within the broader context of endurance and perseverance, this passage reminds believers that hardship is not random or meaningless. Instead, it is a sign of something deeply personal: God is treating us as His children. Rather than punishment, God’s discipline is loving correction—meant to shape, refine, and draw His people toward holiness. Through both Scripture and personal examples, this session helps bring clarity to what it means to experience the Father’s discipline and how believers are meant to respond. In this discussion the group explores: Why God’s discipline is evidence of His love and our identity as His childrenThe difference between worldly consequences and God’s redemptive correctionHow discipline is meant for our good—to produce holiness and ChristlikenessThe danger of misunderstanding hardship or misreading God’s intentionsWhat it looks like to endure seasons of discipline with humility and trustHebrews 12:5–11 calls us to see difficulty through a different lens. What feels painful in the moment may actually be one of the clearest signs that God is actively at work in our lives. The question is not whether we will face discipline—but whether we will receive it as evidence of the Father’s love and respond with faith. Led by: Merritt AndersonSeries: A Study Through Hebrews

    Hebrews 12 (Part 1) — Running the Race with Endurance by Fixing Our Eyes on Jesus

    In this session of the Hebrews study, Merritt Anderson leads the group through Hebrews 12:1–4 and begins unpacking what it means to live in light of everything the letter has been building toward. Following the “hall of faith” in chapter 11, the author now calls believers to action: run the race with endurance. But this is not a call to self-effort or striving in our own strength. Instead, the key to endurance is found in where we fix our eyes. Hebrews 12 points us to Jesus—the founder and perfecter of our faith—who has already run the race before us, endured the cross, and now sits at the right hand of God. The Christian life is not powered by self-determination, but by continually looking to Him and depending on His grace. In this discussion the group explores: What it means to “lay aside every weight and sin” in the race of faithThe balance between human responsibility and dependence on God’s graceWhy fixing our eyes on Jesus is the true source of enduranceHow the gospel fuels both our fight against sin and our perseverance in hardshipThe danger of living in self-effort instead of living from Christ’s finished workHow remembering Christ’s suffering strengthens us when we grow wearyHebrews 12 reminds us that the Christian life is not about running harder in our own strength, but about running with endurance as we continually look to Jesus—the one who has already secured the victory on our behalf.

    Hebrews 11 — Faith That Holds Fast to What Is Better

    In this session of the Hebrews study, Merritt Anderson leads the group through Hebrews chapter 11—the well-known “hall of faith”—and shows how it serves as a response to everything the author has been building since the beginning of the letter. After establishing that Jesus is better than anything that came before—better than angels, Moses, the priesthood, and the old covenant—Hebrews now calls for a response: faith. Hebrews 11 defines faith as a confident trust in God—believing that He is who He says He is and that He will fulfill what He has promised, even when those promises are not yet seen. Through the lives of Old Testament believers, this chapter demonstrates that faith has always been the way God’s people relate to Him. These men and women trusted God with limited understanding, holding fast to promises they would not see fulfilled in their lifetime. In this discussion the group explores: What biblical faith really means in everyday languageHow faith calls for a response from both the committed, the wavering, and those drifting awayWhy the examples in Hebrews 11 point beyond themselves to something greaterWhat it means that these believers lived and died trusting promises not yet fulfilledThe danger of turning back to lesser things instead of holding fast to what is better in ChristHow faith today means trusting fully in the finished work of JesusHebrews 11 reminds us that even a small amount of faith in a great God is enough. The question is not the strength of our faith, but the object of it. In light of everything Christ has accomplished, the call is clear: hold fast, trust fully, and do not turn back to what is lesser.

    Hebrews 10 — The Finished Work of Christ and a Call to Endure

    n this session of the Hebrews study, Shane Carpenter leads the group through Hebrews chapter 10—the climax of the author’s argument and the turning point of the letter. Building on everything that has come before, this chapter shows that the sacrifices of the old covenant were never meant to remove sin completely. They served as reminders and shadows, pointing forward to something greater. In contrast, Jesus offered Himself once for all, accomplishing what the law could never do and securing eternal redemption for His people. Because of Christ’s finished work, believers now have confidence to draw near to God, knowing their sins are forgiven and their hearts have been made clean. At the same time, Hebrews 10 delivers a sober and direct warning. To turn away from Christ after receiving the truth is not a small thing—it is to reject the only sufficient sacrifice for sin. The chapter calls believers to examine their hearts, remain steadfast in faith, and endure with hope. In this discussion the group explores: Why the sacrifices of the law could never fully take away sin How Jesus’ once-for-all sacrifice fulfills what the Old Covenant foreshadowed What it means that believers are both perfected in Christ and being sanctified The difference between striving for salvation and living from what Christ has already secured The danger of drifting or deliberately turning away from Christ The call to hold fast with confidence and endure in faith as we await His return Hebrews 10 reminds us that the Christian life is lived in light of what Christ has already accomplished. Our confidence is not in ourselves, but in Him—and that confidence fuels endurance, faithfulness, and hope. Led by: Shane CarpenterSeries: A Study Through Hebrews

    Hebrews 9 — The Once-for-All Sacrifice of Christ

    In this session of the Hebrews study, Shane Carpenter leads the group through Hebrews chapter 9 as the author continues building the case that Jesus is the greater High Priest and mediator of a better covenant. The chapter revisits the Old Testament tabernacle and the rituals carried out by the priests under the first covenant. Those sacrifices were repeated year after year and could never fully cleanse the conscience. They served as reminders and shadows pointing forward to something greater. Hebrews 9 reveals the fulfillment of those shadows in Christ. Unlike the priests who entered the earthly tabernacle with the blood of animals, Jesus entered the true heavenly sanctuary with His own blood, securing eternal redemption once and for all. In this discussion the group explores: How the tabernacle and priestly rituals pointed to a greater reality Why the sacrifices of the old covenant could never fully deal with sin What it means that Christ entered the heavenly sanctuary once for all How Jesus’ sacrifice purifies the conscience and secures eternal redemption The hope believers have as we eagerly wait for Christ to return Hebrews 9 reminds us that salvation came at a cost. What the old covenant could only foreshadow, Christ has accomplished completely through His sacrifice. Led by: Shane CarpenterSeries: A Study Through Hebrews

    Hebrews 8 — The Better Covenant and the True High Priest

    n this session of the Hebrews study, Merritt Anderson walks through Hebrews chapter 8 and highlights the central point of the writer’s argument: we have a High Priest who is far better than anything the old system could offer. Building on the themes introduced in earlier chapters, Hebrews reminds us that Jesus is not serving in an earthly sanctuary built by human hands. Instead, He ministers in the true heavenly sanctuary, seated at the right hand of God—His work finished and complete. This chapter contrasts the Old Covenant with the New Covenant promised by God through the prophet Jeremiah. The old sacrificial system pointed forward to something greater, but it could never provide lasting rest, full assurance, or complete transformation. In Christ, that promise has now been fulfilled. Together we explore: Why Jesus’ priesthood is superior to the Levitical system How the earthly tabernacle was only a shadow of the heavenly reality What it means that Christ’s work is finished and He is seated in heaven The promise of the New Covenant—God writing His law on the hearts of His people How believers today experience the transformation that earlier generations could only anticipate Hebrews 8 reminds us that God’s redemptive plan has always been moving toward Christ. What the Old Testament anticipated, Jesus has now fulfilled—giving believers a better covenant, better promises, and a secure hope. Led by: Merritt AndersonSeries: A Study Through Hebrews

    Hebrews 7 — A Better Priest, A Better Covenant

    In this week’s study, Merritt Anderson walked us into one of the most fascinating chapters in Hebrews — chapter 7. Two thousand years before Jesus was born, a mysterious priest steps onto the pages of Scripture. He blesses Abraham.He receives a tithe.He’s called the king of righteousness and the king of peace.And then… he disappears. No genealogy.No origin story.No recorded death. Why would God insert that moment into Genesis… and then wait two millennia to fully explain it? Hebrews 7 answers that question.
