Baptism on Easter Sunday – April 16

Our Benediction: Grace
Closing out our study of Hebrews, Pastor Jack taught that exhortations are a form of God’s grace to us. Hebrews 13:20-25 highlights two final exhortations from the book’s author: keep moving forward in our faith, and remember that we are not alone! Listen to “Our Benediction: Grace.”
