Dare to Hope: Living Intentionally in an Unstable World

When we look around at today’s world, hope usually isn’t the first word
that comes to mind. In many ways we live in an unstable world where
marriages fail, bank accounts run low, friendships end, and the everyday
demands of a fast-paced life get us down. In the Book of Jeremiah, we
find God calling out to His people with a message of hope—a message that
intentional living is possible even in an unstable world.

In Dare to Hope, Melissa Spoelstra draws upon her best-selling Bible study Jeremiah: Daring to Hope in an Unstable World
to examine this hope-filled message, highlighting six guidelines for
intentional living that enable us to overcome fear, worry, and doubt as
we surrender to God and put our hope in Him alone. This book inspires us
to dare to hope, remembering that God is rich in mercy and love and has
good plans for us.
