BibleProject | Advent ReflectionsMuestra

Biblical hope depends on Jesus because he gives “living hope” through his resurrection. Our mortal lives fade and die, as he also died, but the life of Jesus is indestructible. He is alive and always offering unending, incorruptible life with him. We begin entering this hopeful way of life when we stop trusting in the world's fear-based advice about how to survive, and start trusting in Jesus' love-based invitation to come alive in him.
