↓Audio link to the sermon: Intro Good morning, fellow brothers and sisters in Christ. In my last sermon, I started on the topic of “fellowship,” which is a very broad subject.

The recipients of this book was also facing the risk of losing their faith from the fear of the persecution that took place in the Roman Empire.

This pandemic has taken a toll not only economically but also on mental health. More people have reported feeling lonely, depressed, and suicidal. The pandemic has shown that when isolated and disconnected from others, we suffer. Connection with others is crucial for our health.

It also says that Jesus is more than a descendant of Aaron, a priest equal to the rank of Melchizedek.
