In his final sermon as Senior Pastor, Pastor Damien Schitter preached from Hebrews 7, reflecting on our deep human longing for status, security, and significance—things we often seek in fragile, earthly pursuits like career, relationships, or achievements. He pointed us to Jesus, our true and better High Priest, who alone offers us a lasting status, unshakable security, and eternal significance.
Unlike the Levitical priests who were temporary and imperfect, Jesus is our permanent and perfect priest. He lives forever, always interceding for us, fully knowing us, and never forgetting us. Jesus not only saves us from our sin but saves us to the uttermost—reaching even the darkest places of our hearts with His redeeming love.
Pastor Damien reminded us that if our status, security, or significance rests on anything shakable, it will ultimately fail us. Only Jesus, the King of Righteousness and Peace, offers us a foundation that is truly unshakeable. In Him, we find rest, assurance, and the freedom to live knowing we are fully known, fully loved, and never forgotten.
