Hope for the Sorrowful (video)

Life isn’t lived under Eden’s tree of life or beneath the healing leaves of the tree in the new Jerusalem. It is lived between them. Life is often hard. In spite of this reality, Shane Wood challenges us to embrace hope, love, and the beauty of reconciliation provided freely by God. There is indeed hope for the sorrowful.

This theme session took place in ACU’s Moody Coliseum on Tuesday, September 17, 2019.
