Something Better

Volume Four of Letters to the Church Under Pressure

This study is the fruit of teaching Hebrews to ordinary congregations and small groups. Like the other volumes, it is written for adult Bible study classes, for small group settings, for Sunday school teachers preparing lessons, and for individuals who want to read this letter carefully with a confessional Lutheran guide at their elbow. It assumes nothing more than a willingness to open the Scriptures and to take their teaching seriously.
