The ONE THING We Can’t Live Without

If we lose "it", we are done for! 

Losing “it” will cause us to give up on our marriages, walk out on our jobs, quit trying to do what is right and even make us believe that “ending it all” is the only way out. 

What is the “it” I am referring to? 

HOPE! 

Hope seems to be the ONE THING that keeps us going when circumstances scream “it’s over!” 

Hope has the ability to help us push through impossible situations and gives us the strength and courage we need to face gigantic problems in life. 

We live in a world that is desperate for hope. 

We want to take a pill to make the bad stuff go away. 

We want a product to purchase that will make us happy. 

We want other people to do whatever it takes to please us, somehow thinking that will fill up our soul. 

However, all three things listed above have a consistent track record of NOT being able to provide the hope we are in desperate need of. 

And, if you REALLY want to lose hope, watch any 24 hour news network for 30 minutes or so and you will be convinced there is NOTHING good in this world. 

We’ve never needed hope more in this world than we do right now—which is why we are beginning a brand new series at NewSpring Church starting this Sunday that will run through Christmas entitled, “A Thrill Of Hope.”

Hope is not found in a pill, a product or people dedicating their lives to making us happy—HOPE is found in the PERSON of Jesus. 

Jesus never encountered a disease He could not heal. 

Jesus never encountered an element He did not overcome. 

Jesus was crucified, buried and then ROSE FROM THE DEAD. 

An empty tomb is reassurance to the world that in Christ, NOTHING IS IMPOSSIBLE. 

This Sunday we dive into why we can have hope, how to get your hope back when you lose it, and how hope can literally change the lives of the people around us. 

Can’t wait!
