Hope in the Darkness

Dec 7, 2025    Jon Wheeler

Hope isn’t wishful thinking—it’s confidence in God’s goodness.


In this Advent message, we explore how biblical hope is rooted not in our circumstances, but in God’s character and faithfulness. Like Abraham, who trusted God even when everything seemed impossible, we’re reminded that hope often shows up in our darkest seasons.


Jesus entered a world filled with silence, oppression, and fear—proving that God brings light into darkness, not just after it. When our hope feels like an air mattress slowly deflating, God doesn’t just patch things up—He replaces what fails with what never will.


Hebrews 6:19 reminds us that hope is an anchor for our souls—not an escape from storms, but strength within them.


This Advent, let’s move from wishing things were different… to trusting the One who holds us steady.
