What Passes for Hope

When Life Brings Your Massive Thing, You Only Have Two Choices

This episode was inspired by a letter I received from a listener. We talk about suffering and hope, and it will help you.

Scripture: Isaiah 48:10, II Corinthians 1

Books: Too Soon Old, Too Late Smart by Gordon Livingston and The Grieving Brain by Mary-Frances O'Connor
