#173 - 1 Thess - Heb 8 On the Harder Way

About this episode

Scott explores how believers hold fast to Christ under pressure, drawing from 1 Thessalonians to Hebrews 8.

Hold Fast: Faith Under Fire — From Thessalonians to HebrewsJoin Scott on the Harder Way Podcast as he moves from 1 Thessalonians through Hebrews 8, exploring how believers hold fast to Christ under real pressure—social, cultural, relational, and physical. Paul’s letters call the church to stand firm, live out sound doctrine, preach the word, and let the gospel reshape relationships, while Hebrews points to a better covenant with Christ as high priest. Scott shares personal testimony of suffering and hope, encouraging listeners to persist in prayer, embrace costly obedience, and choose faith over fear.
