Hebrews 12:1–
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.
Our core ideas of:
– Fellowship.
– Community.
– Turning from sin of selfishness in our budget.
– Commitment to releasing the burdens of debt.
– And running to beat debt.
are all introduced in the above verse.
