What is Hope?

This week in our Hope series, we explored how God’s hope outshines even our deepest struggles. Charlie takes us through Romans 5, showing how hope is more than wishful thinking—it’s faith rooted in a better future with God.Through personal stories, including the unexpected joy of adopting his daughter after years of waiting, Charlie illustrates how life’s trials can lead to perseverance and a deeper trust in God’s promises. Whether we’re navigating daily frustrations or profound grief, we are invited to see how hope is cultivated in hardship and how God’s love strengthens us in every season.Join us as we reflect on the unshakable hope we have through Christ, a hope that carries us through suffering and leads us to God’s glory.What is hope?Why does Paul say we should rejoice in suffering?
