    The Skeleton Of Hope

    Contributed by Michael Brown on Nov 29, 2025
     | 225 views

    I wrote this message as a devotional to share at our next deacon's meeting. Our church is one of MANY churches without a full-time pastor. It's been over a year & a half since the previous pastor left & we need to remember the HOPE we have in Christ!

    The Skeleton of HOPE One thing that we could all use a little more of is hope. Hope is something that can be hard to find in today’s world. Hope seems to be gone, deceased, expired, no more. Hope is nothing but a dried-up skeleton. But that doesn’t mean we should shrug our shoulders & give ...read more

    As believers, we are encouraged to remain steadfast and committed in our faith through every trial and storm that life may bring. We are anchored by Jesus, our great hope, salvation, and savior.

We're gonna see how anchors can teach us something important about our faith and our relationship with Jesus.

    We all face challenges and burdens that can leave us feeling weary and hopeless. But Jesus offers us rest and hope. He invites us to exchange our heavy burdens for his light yoke of grace. This rest is best experienced in community, where we can support and carry one another's burdens.

    We all need hope, especially after the kind of year we've had. And guess what? That hope is found in Jesus. Life can be a real drag sometimes, right? School, chores, sports, drama... it can all pile up and leave us feeling wiped out. But Jesus gets it. He says, "Come to me, all you who are weary ...read more

    Jesus is not afraid of our doubts and meets us where we are. He invites us to seek evidence and find hope in Him.

    Today, we're going to be talking about how even if you're tired, broken, feeling like an underdog, or even if you're doubting, there's hope for you.
