Why We Hope In Hopeless Situations

Sermon Description

In this week’s message, Pastor Brent Roam turns to Romans 8 and invites us to look honestly at the painful and seemingly hopeless situations we face. Through Scripture and the story of a beloved member of our church family, he shows how followers of Jesus can hold onto hope even when life appears to be falling apart. You will hear Paul’s words about suffering, struggle, and the “groaning” of all creation, along with the powerful reminder that below the surface of our pain, God is faithfully working for our good. Throughout the message, Pastor Brent Roam shares how God meets us in the valley, not just on the mountaintop. He walks us through the way Scripture describes pain as part of a process that produces perseverance, character, and hope. You will also hear how the Spirit helps us in our weakness, interceding when we do not even know what to pray.
