You will be challenged and encouraged to press into God, The First and Best Homemaker and ask, “What does this look like for me for where I am now?”

What does it mean to grow up? It seems that the writer of Hebrews has some frustrations with this community around the fact that they haven’t really matured or grown spiritually. Why is that?

In this message from Pastor Olu in Hebrews 2, we explore how Jesus, our suffering Savior, is the Faithful Shepherd who walks with us in our pain.

In this message, Pastor Holly takes us through many stories of Jesus healing, shares her own experiences seeing (and not seeing) healing miracles, and shows us that healing is always on God’s heart and is meant to be a regular part of our lives.
