Overview
This book is for anyone who wants to bring real hope to a hope-starved world.
To live without hope is to cease to live. –Fyodor Dostoevsky
Human beings have a hardwired, desperate need for hope just to keep going; our souls simply cannot survive without it. Yet, hope is primarily viewed in our culture as mere wishful thinking—an uncertain expectation that our circumstances might work out. I Choose Hope challenges this premise at its core.
Hope is far from a fragile wish that things might just go your way; instead, trusted pastor Chip Ingram shows that biblical hope is a certainty you can choose to experience. This book is about choosing true hope—the mental and emotional outlook that life is good, the future is promising, and progress is certain, even in the midst of difficult circumstances and challenging relationships.
Exploring chapter three in Paul’s letter to the Philippians, this book is divided into four parts:
- Finding Hope
- Experiencing Hope
- Pursuing Hope
- Maintaining Hope
I Choose Hope is about the biblical call to be filled with hope, not as an occasional mood but an ongoing lifestyle. Hope isn’t dependent on circumstances. It doesn’t mean everything is going well or we must pretend we aren’t struggling. We can have hope amid adversity and trials because it transcends them. We can trust that God is with us, He will lead us well, and He has blessings in store for us.
Your hope—or lack of it—matters to God. It touches every aspect of your life—your decisions, relationships, health, and more. Hope is one of the greatest gifts you can give to your spouse, your children, and the people around you. Join esteemed Bible teacher Chip Ingram and embrace the essential Christian virtue of hope.
