The Hope Podcast with Lina AbujamraI am confident because of the cross [THE CONFIDENCE SERIES #7]In today’s podcast we’ll continue our study of Hebrews and see how Jesus, the exalted Son and high priest provides full cleansing from sin and open access to God – the reality that the Old Testament anticipated but was never meant to accomplish. In view of understanding who Christ is, the author of Hebrews encourages Christians to hold firmly to their faith in His work in spite of adversity. Therefore do not throw away your confidence, which has a great reward.For you have need of endurance, so that when you have done the will of G...2023-10-1939 min

The Hope Podcast with Lina AbujamraI am confident because He loves me [THE CONFIDENCE SERIES #4]In today’s podcast, as we delve into Hebrews 4-5, we will come to understand that our greatest sense of confidence comes from knowing that God loves us so deeply. In this episode I’m also pointing out five reasons why we are not changing and growing in our faith, and the main things that I believe stand in our way of drawing closer to God.

The Hope Podcast with Lina AbujamraI am confident because He is faithful [THE CONFIDENCE SERIES #3]One of the greatest battles we encounter as followers of Christ is the struggle against unbelief. When our prayers go seemingly answered, when we don’t see the results we hoped for, when life hurls one curveball after another, we’re tempted to succumb to fear, disappointment, and to forget who is on our side. In Hebrews chapter 3, the author is making a point that one of the most effective ways to fight unbelief is to consider Jesus, to think carefully about Him (Hebrews 3:1). By considering Him we will come to the realization that He is f...2023-09-2138 min

The Hope Podcast with Lina AbujamraI am confident because He is in control [THE CONFIDENCE SERIES #2]Today we’re continuing The Confidence Series with a look at Hebrews chapter 2 where we will recognize another reason we can be confident: because God is in control. Much like us today, the early Christian believers were living in tumultuous times. They confronted injustice, endured suffering, and grappled with a sense of uncertainty, all of which tempted them to forsake their faith. In this context, the author of Hebrews reminds them, and us, that even when things look messy, when life is challenging, and our suffering seems to have no end, God is in control, an...2023-09-1439 min

How do we overcome disappointments and experience stability in the most unpredictable of times? The author of Hebrews knows the answer—CONFIDENCE in God.

The Hope Podcast with Lina AbujamraUnshaken faith when I am thirsty for more [ UNSHAKEN 30]Have you ever felt restless or dissatisfied, despite having success, possessions, or even fulfilling relationships? God has placed within each of us a holy discontent, a stirring, a desire for something more. It's a longing that cannot be satisfied by anything else but a deep and intimate relationship with Jesus Christ. In today’s podcast we’ll look at Revelation 22 and delve into God’s invitation to us, the blessings that are still to come to those who seek Him, as well as learn how to cultivate a desire for more of God. Hey, w...2023-08-0332 min

The Hope Podcast with Lina AbujamraUnshaken when my faith seems pointless [UNSHAKEN 29]Life often presents us with trials, doubts, and circumstances that challenge the very core of our beliefs. In these moments, it's natural to question if our faith truly holds any weight. The lineup of men and women from Hebrews 11 certainly understand the struggle in our heart, and the way they responded to adversity, unfairness, confusion, or God’s silence, serves as a timeless guide for us during our most trying times. So, grab your headphones, open your heart, and listen to today’s podcast because I believe your doubt will meet purpose and your uncertainty will...2023-07-2737 min

The Hope Podcast with Lina AbujamraUnshaken faith when I feel like a failure [UNSHAKEN 28]What’s your relationship with failure like? Where do you see yourself as a failure and how have you responded to that failure? John 21 is one of my favorite stories in the Bible. Here we encounter how Jesus responded to Peter after what was probably his biggest failure yet – the denial of Jesus before His crucifixion. Instead of scolding him, Jesus loves him and points him to his purpose and calling. I believe today’s podcast will bring you hope and remind you that your failure is not the end of your story, but per...2023-07-2034 min

The Hope Podcast with Lina AbujamraUnshaken faith when God’s ways offend me [UNSHAKEN 25]Have you ever placed your trust in God, hoping for a positive outcome, only to feel let down? In Matthew 11, John the Baptist’s story looked like it ended badly from a human perspective. Here was an individual whom Jesus considered to be the greatest among all men (Mat. 11:11) stuck in prison, hoping to be delivered, only to be beheaded instead. From the viewpoint of God, John's final outcome was intricately designed with divine purpose, his life was profoundly meaningful, and his calling was successfully carried out. We too can sometimes misunderstand God’s wa...2023-06-2934 min

The encounter between Jesus and the devil in Matthew 4 reveals crucial principles for conquering temptation and living victorious Christian lives.

The Hope Podcast with Lina AbujamraUnshaken faith when the outcome looks iffy at best [UNSHAKEN 23]Sometimes we don’t know how things are going to turn out in our life. In Daniel 3 we encounter three men—Shadrach, Meshach, and Abednego—facing a situation where their fate hangs precariously between potential salvation and possible demise. Regardless of the outcome, will they remain obedient to God? When we find ourselves in that space where the outcome looks “iffy” at best, God is asking us to make certain decisions that will allow us to stand unshaken in our faith, knowing that obedience will not guarantee us the outcome we might want, but God’s faithful a...2023-06-1532 min

The Hope Podcast with Lina AbujamraUnshaken faith when it’s easier to fit in [UNSHAKEN 22]Being a Christian will inevitably create some dissonance with our culture and pressure to fit in. What do we do when we’re asked to say and do things that are contrary to the guidelines of Scripture? Will we choose what’s popular or what’s true? Will we choose temporary comfort or eternal joy? Will we choose pleasing man or pleasing God? In today’s podcast we'll look at Daniel chapter 1 and learn from this man what it means to obey God in a shifting culture when it's easier to blend in.

The Hope Podcast with Lina AbujamraUnshaken faith when all my hope is lost [UNSHAKEN 21]There are so many things that can weigh down on us and steal our hope, things like our present problems, our worries and fears, our glaring loneliness, our deep disappointments, or our failures and unmet expectations. In Lamentations 3 we find a powerful example of a man who had all the reasons to despair and yet proclaimed “‘The Lord is my portion’, says my soul, ‘therefore I will hope in him’” (v. 24). Take a listen to today’s podcast and see how God’s goodness is being made manifest in our life even when it seems like all hope is l...2023-06-0138 min

The Hope Podcast with Lina AbujamraUnshaken faith when I’m alone in my pain [UNSHAKEN 20]As we look at a man accustomed with pain and loneliness in today’s podcast, I believe our perspective on the difficult seasons of our life will change. Job’s response to the pain in his life will encourage us to look at our difficult circumstances through the lens of who God is and see that the best days are yet to come because we serve a God who is good, faithful, who sets the seasons of our life and who appoints that which concerns us. May we, like Job, declare in the midst of our...2023-05-2532 min

Why does your dream bring with it deep opposition? In Nehemiah 1 we encounter a man who has a dream that is bigger than himself and impossible to accomplish without God. As we look at this story, we will learn from Nehemiah what it takes to accomplish God-seized dreams. As you listen to this episode, my prayer is that the Lord will awaken in you those dreams that feel too big, too daring, and th...2023-05-1836 min

Do you feel overwhelmed by fear in the face of your trials? Do you struggle to believe that God is good when you can’t see Him clearly at work in your life? The way we respond to the battles we’re facing is often influenced by what we choose to focus on. Do we look at the obvious enemy or at the spiritual reality of who is with us? Do we fix our eyes on what is visible or on God and His promises, no m...2023-05-1128 min

The Hope Podcast with Lina AbujamraUnshaken faith when I desperately need a miracle [UNSHAKEN 17]While we might not like to be in need and unable to fix our problems, it is in those moments that if we turn to God, He can come through and do what only He can do. I believe we all have areas in our life where we desperately need a miracle. In 2 Kings 4:1-7 we encounter a widow who knew that her only chance to get out of her difficult circumstance was a miracle. This episode will show us why and how she was able to experience God at work in a powerful way. ...2023-05-0425 min

As a result, he must rely on the provision of the Lord for survival, but even the brook he is led to by God dries up soon enough. What in your life looks like it’s drying up right now?

Do you feel like your problems are bigger than your abilities? Does it seem like your enemies are stronger than your allies? Are your emotions heavier that you can process? King Jehoshaphat can relate. In 2 Chronicles 20 we’re told about the time when he got news about an army coming against him and his people, an army he knew he could not win against on his own.

The Hope Podcast with Lina AbujamraLearning from our desert fathers [DESERT SERIES #6]The desert seasons are common in the Christian life. In fact, a careful look at Scripture reveals that no one was mightily used by God until that person became deeply acquainted with the desert. In Hebrews 11 we encounter several men and women who faced incredibly difficult circumstances, yet they were not moved to despair by the things they faced in this world. These desert fathers and mothers remind us of some principles that will help us see the desert not as a place to escape from but as God’s intentional place to accomplish His pu...2023-03-0917 min

Even so, we don’t have to throw in the towel and simply give in. Jesus modeled for us how to battle temptation and live victoriously, and we are called to follow His example.
