Not just another Christmas

Hebrews 12:1-2

4 motivations to run after Jesus with all you have this Christmas…

1. The home crowd  

Therefore, since we are surrounded by so great a cloud of witnesses, 

2. The hindrances released

let us also lay aside every weight, and sin which clings to closely, 

3. The holistic focus   

and let us run with endurance the race that is set before us, ²looking to Jesus, the founder and perfecter of our faith, 

4. The heavenly joy

who for the joy that was set before him endured the cross, despising the shame, and is seated at the right hand of the throne of God.
