One Sentence Sermon: Run with Indefatigability!
Since it’s Teacher Appreciation week at River Life, Pastor Tom decided to teach us a new word; Indefatigability. In-de-fatigue-ability: incapable of being fatigued; tirelessness; persistence; stamina. The book of Hebrews speaks about running the race of life, and fixing our eyes on Jesus. Pointing out that the people who came before us, Moses, Elijah and the other cloud of witnesses didn’t have Jesus to help them like we do. We have an extra super power, called Jesus, to help us in times of trouble. Even if you think you can’t win; RUN-IT-OUT. Jesus is there pushing you through to the end!

Bible Verses:
Hebrews 11:39-40
39 These were all commended for their faith, yet none of them received what had been promised, 40 since God had planned something better for us so that only together with us would they be made perfect.
Hebrews 12 : 1-3
12 Therefore, since we are surrounded by such a great cloud of witnesses, let us throw off everything that hinders and the sin that so easily entangles. And let us run with perseverance the race marked out for us, 2 fixing our eyes on Jesus, the pioneer and perfecter of faith. For the joy set before him he endured the cross, scorning its shame, and sat down at the right hand of the throne of God. 3 Consider him who endured such opposition from sinners, so that you will not grow weary and lose heart.
