Welcome to a new series focused on hope. Join us as we discus how our beliefs shape our hope and introduce the traits of hopeful people. We’ll look at the difference between hope and wishful thinking, emphasizing hope as a confluence of reason, passion, and resilience.
We’ll introduce you to the hope cycle (or remind you if you’ve been around a while). The Hope Cycle is made up of goals, agency, and pathways—a feedback loop for nurturing hope. Listen to examples from personal and church leadership experiences illustrating the cycle's application.
Aimed at Jesus-centered leaders, the episode provides insights into fostering and sustaining hope while navigating obstacles.
