The Power of the Blood: Hebrews 9 and the Ultimate Sacrifice

Mar 31, 2026    Dr. Roger Patterson, Dr. Mark Edworthy, Kirby Follis

Join teaching pastors Mark Edworthy, Roger Patterson, and Justo Robinson, and Kirby Follis for a deep dive into Hebrews 9 as they continue our Easter countdown series, "The Power of the Cross".


In this episode, the team explores why the blood of Christ is central to the Christian faith and how it serves as a "better" alternative to the Old Testament sacrificial system.


From personal stories of childhood lessons on sin to reflections on the ancient architecture of Notre Dame, this conversation moves from the "shadows" of the Old Testament tabernacle to the reality of Jesus as our eternal mediator. Whether you are looking to understand the theological roots of the New Covenant or seeking a clear conscience through the grace of God, this discussion offers a powerful look at the path to salvation.


In this episode, we discuss:Why the "blood" is a non-negotiable part of the Gospel.


The difference between the first and second Adam.


How Jesus serves as our "bridge builder" (Pontiff) to God.


The reality of sin and the need for a spiritual "doctor".


The connection between Old Testament saints and New Testament faith.
