Are You Ready?
Pre-trib, Post-trib.  Which one is it?  Well I have my opinion (and in this sermon I state some of the reasons for it).  But the question I ask is are you ready.  What if your opinion is wrong and the other option comes true.  Are you ready for that other reality?  Be ready.

    The story of Hannah is the first story I found with the word hope used.  And I believe one reason for this is because of the name of God that Hannah depends on, the Lord of Hosts.  Hear more about this name and the lessons we can learn about hope from Hannah in this message.  Here is the link to support people in Ukraine through World Partners: https://wpartners.org/ministries/projects/world-partners-ukraine-relief-project

    Bite-Sized Hope
    Can we be hopeful all the time?  Probably not.  We all will probably encounter times when our doubts and fears overwhelm us.  But as we see in this sermon, God often gives us bite sized pieces of hope that we can grab onto during those time in order to bring us through.  And best of all, when we cling to these small hunks of hope over time can develop a habit of being more hopeful.
