In this episode, we learn how to build a church on hope the way Jesus did—by cultivating purpose, humility, endurance, impact, and inspiration.
Through prayer, we can give God our stressed, afraid, and burdened hearts and find relief.
The church of the Bible was dynamic, powerful, and life-changing. So why has church attendance today been declining?
When we get our happiness from God, we want to share that happiness with others.
We are not meant to carry our fears, guilt, insecurities, or anxieties alone.
God is relational; he wants a friendship with us, not a religious performance.
When we have the certainty that God loves us completely for who we are, we can be satisfied no matter what.
We have a God who always keeps his promises, and we can find those promises in the Bible.
When we’re worried, weary, or hurting, we need to know that God has our back; he loves and cares for us.
We have dreams we want to see happen and visions we want to accomplish, but it takes a lot of energy to keep running toward them.
We can open our hearts up to him by listening, talking, turning, and committing to being close to him.
God wants us to both have our own happy and satisfying life and to help others have an opportunity for that life, too.
