Got Hope? (part four) Letting Go

This sounds counterintuitive, but sometimes for us to HOPE again takes us letting go. Sometimes we try so hard to be in control and make things happen the way we want to, and then we get flustered, frustrated and depressed because they don’t happen that way. It is those situations where we can Let Go and Let God take care of it. Listen and enjoy:

Got Hope? (part three) Crazy Dreams

Sometimes I’m a negative thinker. And then I project that negativity onto others, so I assume they’re negative too. What if we took Paul’s words to the Philippians as advice: “Rejoice in the Lord always…do not worry about anything, but make your requests known to God by prayer and supplication with thanksgiving…whatever is true, whatever is honorable, whatever is just, whatever is pure, whatever is pleasing, whatever is commendable…if there is anything worthy of praise, think about these things.” I bet we’d be more hopeful in the midst of things falling down around us, in the midst of impossible situations we’d have crazy dreams.

Got Hope? (part two) Getting out of the Pit

Stuff happens. That is life. What we do with it is another story. God wants to reach out and pull you up out of the pit. Listen as we look at Psalm 40 and the 12 steps to recovery. When we are convinced that our situation is impossible, God, by his strength and his power, lifts us up out of the pit and gives us a new song to sing. Take a listen.

Got Hope? (part one) Dissolving the Quick Fix

Over the next few weeks we’ll be talking about how we can have more hope in our lives. This week: So often, we are like Esau in Genesis 25. We give up a greater future for a quick, easy, simple answer now. God has wonderful things for us. We need to learn patience and surrender. Take a listen.
