Advent 2: When We’re Running Out of Hope, God Is at Work

from Faith Lift · host Rev. Craig Gommer

When We’re Running Out of Hope, God Is at Work: In this week’s Advent message, we meet John the Baptist at one of the most vulnerable moments of his life. From a prison cell, weary and discouraged, he sends Jesus a question that echoes through every age: “Are You the One… or should we look for another?”Jesus responds not with rebuke, but with reassurance. This is a message for anyone feeling tired, discouraged, or unsure — a reminder that God is at work even when we cannot yet perceive it.
