Hi, I’m John Sorensen, President of Evangelism Explosion International, and you’re listening to Share Life Today.
I have a rather strange question for you this Christmas season: How is your hope doing? Well, over the past few years, we’ve been through some really rough times. It’s possible that you’re doing ok. But it is also possible you’re just hanging on, hoping for hope. Well, here’s the thing: Hope is so vital. William Carey, the father of the modern mission movement, said, “Without hope, it’s impossible to carry on any great movement indefinitely.” But how do we get hope? And how do we keep it? Well, the truth is everlasting hope came on Christmas. His name is Jesus. After He started His ministry here on earth, Jesus told his troubled disciples who were worried about the future, “I am the Way, the Truth, and the Life…Don’t let your hearts be troubled. You believe in God; believe also in me.” When we place our trust in Jesus, we receive a new life of hope in Him. For more on the hope of the Gospel, visit our website at www.sharelife.today.
