Discover the power of A Better Hope found in Jesus Christ. In this message from Pastor Ryan Skolrud, we explore Hebrews 7:18–22 and the truth that Christ initiated a better covenant—one not based on human effort or law, but on God’s unchanging promise of grace.
When the weight of performance-based faith feels heavy, Jesus invites us to lay down our burdens and take His easy yoke. Through His perfect obedience and sacrificial love, we are freed from striving and empowered to draw near to God in confidence.
If you’ve been relying on your own strength, it’s time to embrace the rest and hope found only in Christ. Experience what it means to exchange legalism for grace, distance for nearness, and exhaustion for peace in Jesus, our eternal High Priest and guarantee of a better covenant.
NEXT STEPS:
-
Memorize Matthew 11:28–30.
-
Trade your yoke for Christ’s: surrender one area of your life you’ve been striving in your own strength.
-
Repent and submit your life to Christ, trusting Him to carry the weight with you.
