Hope Against Hope

di Russell D. Moore (Autore)

Thomas Nelson, 2027

Rediscover genuine peace in a fearful world by embracing the countercultural way of Jesus. We live in a time of panic and of boredom, of frenzy and of lifelessness, all at the same time. Our boredom leads us to seek out what can feel almost like meaning or purpose or at least life: the lighting up of our limbic system through real or manufactured fear and through real or manufactured resentment. The exhaustion after that kind of ongoing adrenal jolt leads to panic and that leads to more boredom, which starts the cycle again. What we need is a way to break the cycle of boredom and panic that comes from our dangerous relationship to control. Hope Against Hope will help you find your way back to sanity not through seizing control--of the culture or even of your life--but instead by surrendering control through living out the way of Christ. You will discover how to recognize the cyclical nature of panic and boredom and understand how it impacts you, move past modern expectations of a predictable world to embrace reality through genuine faith, and regain a biblical perspective on how true life is found in choosing to follow Jesus into an uncontrollable future. A panicked or bored Christian, much less a panicked or bored church, looks nothing like the Jesus who took his disciples to the epicenter of panic and calmly invited them to lose control--of their wants, of their futures, of their protection, and even of their lives. Hope Against Hope will help you embrace the countercultural way of Jesus as you replace fear with genuine peace.
