A call to live with the settled assurance that comes from knowing who we are in Christ. Drawing from Hebrews 10:19–25, this message shows how Jesus gives believers a clean conscience, a secure identity, and full access to God’s presence. With humor, testimony, and down-to-earth teaching, it reveals how true spiritual confidence produces boldness before God, clarity in our witness, and commitment to the community that shapes us. Listeners are invited to move beyond uncertainty, anchor themselves in God’s promises, and embrace the courageous, steady life that grows from confidence in Christ.
An invitation to see Scripture not as an old religious text but as the living Word that reveals Jesus and draws believers into relationship with Him. It highlights how Scripture protects us from deception, exposes the enemy’s strategies, strengthens us against temptation, and equips us to navigate life with wisdom and clarity. Through vivid examples and biblical insight, the teaching shows how the Word shapes character, anchors identity, and becomes a lifelong source of guidance, joy, and spiritual resilience.
This session explains the foundational role apostles and prophets play in establishing healthy churches. Their gifts help set direction, guard doctrine, strengthen unity, and create environments where the rest of the ministry gifts can function as God intended.

Hebrews 13 gathers the book’s major themes into practical direction: love, hospitality, sexual integrity, contentment, honouring leaders, sacrificial praise, and life together under the New Covenant.
