The Purifying Power of Hope with Dr. Rick Peterson
The hope that purifies is that we are truly children of God. And this isn't just some hallmark card sentimentality. This is a work of God that creates something new within humanity, something new after the image and model of Jesus Christ Himself, something so profound, the magnitude of which is so great that it transforms us and conforms us progressively into the very image of Jesus Christ, in thought, word, and deed.
Hope isn't just a fleeting feeling; it's a transformative force. In this episode of 'Encounter Recovery Ministries', Dr. Rick Peterson dives deep into how hope can purify our lives. As children of God, we're born anew, modeled after Jesus Christ. Dr. Peterson explains that this hope isn't mere sentimentality but a profound work of God that gradually transforms us to reflect Jesus in our thoughts, words, and deeds.
He encourages us to anchor our hope in God and to cleanse ourselves from anything that doesn't align with His will. By doing so, we not only grow spiritually but also find a more fulfilling human experience. Tune in to this episode for a refreshing take on the purifying power of hope and how it can reshape your journey in faith and recovery.
