    From Despair To Hope

    Contributed by David Dunn on Sep 8, 2025
     | 235 views

    Funerals today are often called celebrations of life. While we grieve, we also celebrate the hope that is ours through Christ. As Paul reminds us, we do not “grieve as others who have no hope,” for Jesus’ death and resurrection assures us of eternal life.

Jesus specializes in recovery and transformation. Our God is a God of Recovery, interested in restoring and ...read more
