Good morning. Our study this month covers the idea of “Hope in the Times of Crises”. In this study, we will consider a definition and a biblical position on Hope. We will also consider a definition of crisis; an exploration of crisis in creation, and a biblical response; an exploration of crisis in general and a believer’s response. We will end the series with an exploration of crisis within and a recovery plan.

Today, we speak about hope as used in the New Testament, meaning a favourable and confident expectation.

Reverend Ronald Webster is the Pastor of Hopewell Missionary Church in Hopewell, Hanover, Jamaica.
