Living as a People of Hope Companion Booklet

Through scripture, reflection, and guided Zoom sessions, Living as a People of Hope invites individuals and congregations into a deeper understanding of Christian hope. Together, we will wrestle with meaningful questions about death and resurrection, the life to come, and our call to witness in a world in need of healing.

This seven-week journey includes in-person reflections and online gatherings, focusing on key themes such as:

  • Easter Changes Everything
  • Waiting in Hope
  • Rejoicing in Hope
  • Living in Hope
  • The Promise of New Creation

Come discover how the truth of Christ’s resurrection transforms not only our future, but our present.
