“A Living Hope That Holds You: Finding Purpose in the Midst of Suffering”- 11am Traditional Eucharis

This sermon uses Viktor Frankl’s experience to show that true endurance in suffering comes from having meaning and hope, connecting this idea to the message of 1 Peter . It explains that human hearts are driven by deep longings, and while worldly hope is unstable and based on circumstances, Christian hope is a “living hope” rooted in Jesus Himself. This living hope does not eliminate suffering but gives it purpose, as God uses trials to refine and transform believers. Ultimately, the message emphasizes that this hope not only holds onto us now but also assures a future where God will fully restore and make all things new.
