The Christian hope is a life-shaping certainty that our ultimate future is the eternal love and glory of God, the new heavens and new earth.
The uniqueness of the Christian hope means every area of our lives is shaped by that belief, that future. And so the Christian hope has an enormous impact on how we face and process suffering, disappointment, difficulty, troubles.
In 2 Corinthians, we’re told three things about suffering: 1) the inevitability of it, 2) the pattern of it, and 3) the future of it.
This Month's Featured Book
This month, as a thank you for your gift, we’ll send you two copies of Making Sense of God. We hope it provides a way for you to do a small act to share the gospel—and we’re trusting that God will provide opportunities for you to give one or both books to people in your life who are searching for truth.
