Show Notes

In this series, we will hear from various pastors across the country as they encourage Hope Community Church by explaining how we are part of a bigger picture. We are not alone. Rather, we are in a movement of God that has been growing for thousands of years beyond ethnicity, beyond generation and beyond location.

Big God. Big Church.

The Gospel is NOT ‘God is good; you are bad; try harder.’ The Gospel is that even when we were unworthy, God sent his Son to live the life we could not live, to die the death on the cross that we deserved, to pay the price for sin and death, to adopt us as sons and daughters and to invite us into the family.

Matthew 25:24-25 (ESV)

The opposite of faith is not doubt.

The opposite of faith is fear.
