PASTOR BOB'S BIBLE STUDY

The Letter to the Hebrews—
Running the Faith-Race
Every Jesus-follower at some time in his or her life is
tempted to quit and to ask, “What’s the use?” As
problems and roadblocks mount, as faith seems
unproductive, we find it easy to think about quitting our
personal faith-race. But a strong faith that enables us to
stay in the faith-race grows out of a firm grasp of who
Jesus Christ really represents in out lives of faith.
