Barak's Faith to Follow

Hebrews 11:32-34; Judges 4

November 17, 2024 • Pastor Luke Davis • Hebrews 11:32–34, Judges 4

We continue our series in Hebrews 11, Living Forward to a Better Country, where the author of Hebrews calls us to faithful endurance through the portraits of ancient believers. Today, we dig into the faith of Barak, a military captain in the time of the judges. Like Barak, by faith, we are to follow God who has marched ahead to free us from sin and evil.

Made Strong Out of Weakness

December 8, 2024 • Pastor Russ Collins • Hebrews 11:32–34

This morning, we continue our series in Hebrews 11, Living Forward to a Better Country, where the author of Hebrews calls us to faithful endurance through the portraits of ancient believers. Today, we look at the life of Samson, who starts as a strong man but is revealed to be weak and ends as a weak man who is stronger than ever. How? Through Faith. May we be encouraged to do likewise.

Gideon's Fear and Faith

October 6, 2024 • Pastor Justin Keogh • Hebrews 11:32–34, Judges 6—8

This morning we continue our series in Hebrews 11, Living Forward to a Better Country, where the author of Hebrews calls us to faithful endurance through the portraits of ancient believers. Today, we get to the surprising inclusion of Gideon, one of the Judges of Israel. We’ll see through Gideon’s example, that our faith can overcome our fears as we look to Christ's work on our behalf and presence with us by his Spirit.

Faith That Receives Its Inheritance

September 1, 2024 • Pastor Ruban Monu • Hebrews 11:30–31, Joshua 2, Joshua 6:1–25

Today we continue our series in Hebrews 11, Living Forward to a Better Country, where the author of Hebrews calls us to faithful endurance through the portraits of ancient believers. Today, we consider the faith of Joshua as he leads God’s people at the conquest of Jericho, and of Rahab the prostitute, who was from Jericho. Together, they ultimately point us to a faith that perseveres and receives its inheritance, in Christ.
