Daily Devotional | A Better Sacrifice

  • March 19, 2024 | Hebrews 9:28
Devotions

We don’t talk about sacrifices very much today, but they were a common practice in many religions. Sacrifices were offered for various reasons. Sometimes, it was merely an expression of religious feeling, a way to feel connected or to say “thank you” to their god. In other religions, a sacrifice was almost like a bribe, intended to purchase favor.

From the Editor

Imagine being taught to worship God a certain way your entire life. Then, suddenly, you are told that what you have always done is no longer necessary!

As modern-day Christians, it’s hard for us to imagine what it must have been like for Jewish believers in the early church. The book of Hebrews was written to help them (and us) understand why Jesus is the better way in every respect.

Join Today in the Word this March as we read through the book of HebrewsDr. John Koessler will be our guide as we walk through this important New Testament book. For an introduction to the study (and some helpful background on Hebrews), be sure to listen to this month’s YouTube conversation.

In addition, this month’s family study explains the meaning of Jesus’ sacrifice on our behalf and will help you teach your children why that give us hope! Download the free March family study and share it with those you love!

We are so glad you are reading the Bible with us.
