In a Certain Light

Hope

Hope in a Certain Light invites you to rediscover hope as something you can experience now - not as an escape to heaven someday, but as a present reality rooted in connection. In a world of isolation and polarization, this series explores how hope grows when we belong to one another and participate in God’s work of bringing heaven to earth. Through Scripture, conversation, and shared practices, we’ll learn to see each other in unconditional light and live as a network of care.

Hope, Expected

Hopeful expectation can be a good thing, but when hope is about nothing more than outcomes, it becomes brittle. Hope does not have to be a passive waiting; it can be active, living as if what is hoped for is true. Let's explore how hope can shape the ways people act even when the fulfillment of their hopes has not yet (and may not ever have) arrived.

Hope, Shared

This series has led us to this: Hope is meant to be shared. It grows when it is shared. It becomes more true and powerful when shared. Perhaps most of all, hope shared does leads to something almost holy: the connection of one person to another. Unity can be a product of the vulnerable, important, and exciting task of sharing in the hopes of those around us.
