Summary

The season of Advent is a time of hope and waiting: preparing for the birth of Christ and welcoming Him into our hearts in a new way. But a season focused on hope can often reveal the places in our hearts that are hopeless. Jake and Bob kick off a new series on how to move from hopelessness to hope. They discuss how a lack of hope can often stem from a lack of trust, patience and intimacy with the Lord. Listen as they share some helpful shifts in mindset to grow in the virtue of hope this Advent season.

Key Quote

“The person who loves intimacy with Jesus will get farther in the healing journey than the person who just wants to be healed.” -Jake Khym

Key Points

How the holidays and the Advent focus on hope can often reveal where we feel hopeless
We need to desire relationship with Jesus even more than the healing He can give us. He wants to give us good gifts but desires our hearts more than all.
A lack of hope can often come from a lack of intimacy and trust.
Trust is the currency in the economy of relationship.
“Gratitude is an antidote to hopelessness.” -Bob Schuchts
