The Message of Hope

December 23, 2008

When life is falling apart around us where do we turn?  Of course the question is never asked, “Will life fall apart?” The question is when and how will it fall apart and where will our heart turn when it does?  All of us know that when we are shaken, whatever is inside us will come out.  Life is shaking, what is coming out?  In this talk, Jon challenges us to use the pain that we experience to turn the volume up on our hope so that the world around us can experience true hope as well.
