Running Life’s Race; Hebrews 12:1-2

Scripture: Hebrews 12:1-2

Series: Jesus Is Better


In this powerful message from our "Jesus Is Better" series, we explored Hebrews 12:1-2, where the Christian life is likened to a marathon requiring hope-filled endurance. The main idea is clear: Jesus is the solution to running life’s race with hope-filled endurance.


We are called to:

Reflect on the "great cloud of witnesses" from Hebrews 11, drawing encouragement from their examples of God’s faithfulness.

Release distractions and sins that weigh us down, freeing us to pursue Christ with focus.

Refocus on Jesus, the Author and Finisher of our faith, who endured the cross for the joy of redeeming us and now reigns at God’s right hand.

The gospel reminds us that Jesus not only ran His race perfectly but empowers us to persevere through His finished work and intercession. Let’s fix our eyes on Him, trusting He will carry us to the finish line.
