Join Lutherans all across this synod beginning Sunday, July 6, for Heartfelt Hebrews, a Bible reading journey through one of the most poetic, profound, and mysterious books in the New Testament.

We don’t know who wrote Hebrews or exactly who first heard it, but we do know this: it speaks powerfully into our lives today. With rich imagery, deep theological insight, and a bold reimagining of Old Testament traditions, Hebrews invites us to wonder, to wrestle, and to worship. Whether you’ve read it before or are encountering it for the first time, this is a chance to explore timeless questions about Jesus, faith, and community—together. Offered by the synod’s Engage the Bible Ministry Team (a Book of Faith ministry), this journey through Scriptures will be our tenth summer together exploring a book of the Bible.

Let’s listen for God’s voice in the unknown and discover anew what it means to be surrounded by a great cloud of witnesses.

Follow along using any of these methods:

• Subscribe here to receive a daily email in your inbox.
• Watch this homepage for daily posts.
• Read through the printed compilation (available by July 1).

As you go, reflect on the ways the texts and the readings inform your faith and actions.

Consider responding in a creative way:

• Respond by creating your own visio divina—or audio divina—of one or more of the daily devotions.
• This year’s ‘love letter to God’ (Hebrews) will lend itself well to creative response. How does your reading and reflection lead you to write your own love letter to God? Color, paint, sculpt, build, sketch, compose (prose, poetry, music)—any medium; every ability.
• Share in your congregation. Showcase artistic responses from all ages—a narthex display, bulletin board, or worship offering!
• Share with the world. Post responses on socials and tag with #2025HeartfeltHebrews and @ncsynod
• Complete your creation and share by Wednesday, September 3.
• Remember: it’s a creation, not a competition!

Encourage others to journey with you using this bulletin insert!
