This World is Not Our Home — Hebrews 10-13, Week 20

This discussion features: Judah Thomas, David Lamanna, Lenny Salgado, Johnny V., Mike McHugh, and James Gowell. Edited by: Tim Nicholson.In this episode of Thriving in the Word, we walk through Hebrews 13 and trace it back into the Psalms, including a stunning prayer that frames the entire chapter as a picture of who God is and what Jesus has secured for us.We talk about the God who doesn’t merely command—He equips. The God who calls us to do His will also gives us everything we need to actually live it. That leads us into some honest, practical questions: Do we really believe we have access to God?Do we have a clear conscience?Are we treating Jesus like “Jesus à la carte”—picking what we like and skipping what costs us?From there, the conversation turns to the reality that this world is not our permanent home—and what it means to live as people with a home yet to come. We unpack the tension of being ambassadors of Jesus in a culture that celebrates comfort, self-justification, and “just do what you want.” Hebrews calls us to something different: deny yourself, pick up your cross, and live honorably in all we do—even when it’s not easy.Topics include: Hebrews 13, Psalms, prayer, God’s equipping, doing God’s will, access to God, clear conscience, living honorably, Jesus à la carte, denying yourself, picking up your cross, faith as unseen, slow to speak/quick to listen, justifying behaviors, spiritual formation, discipleship, endurance, and the question we all have to face: Do you actually believe?This faith-based Christian podcast episode is for anyone who wants Bible teaching that doesn’t stay theoretical—because following Jesus isn’t a life of ease, it’s a life of surrender, endurance, and real faith.More info: https://www.thrive.churchGive: https://www.thrive.church/give/Need prayer?
