In Week 9 we continue our study on Hebrews 4 through 6 and we encourage you to read along with us.

This episode is called “Tasted It and Walked Away.”

Hebrews 4–6 doesn’t let us stay casual with God: it invites us into His rest, then warns us what it looks like to get close to the fire—taste it, feel it, even be moved by it—and still turn away.

We dig into the “once saved always saved” debate, deconstructing faith, and why Scripture draws a hard line between honest wrestling and willful rejection.

We also zoom out to the bigger story—Jesus’ spiritual lineage and the mysterious figure of Melchizedek—and what it means when Jesus is greater than the ancestors we revere.

Along the way, Johnny shares a wild moment of almost falling out of a roller coaster, and we use it as a picture of what Hebrews is pleading with us to do: hold on, don’t drift, and don’t “lean on your own understanding” when God is calling you deeper.

If you’ve been curious, cynical, burned, or just spiritually stuck, this is your invitation to open yourself up to the wonders of Scripture, move past milk to maturity, and take a real step toward growing closer to God—with reverence, confidence, and a faith that actually endures.

Help us spread the word about Thriving in the Word—and thanks for being part of the family.

Have a blessed day.
