4/17 InterVarsity LIVE!

Hope in Times of Despair Study Guide

Keep the discussion going! We have created a Bible Study resource specifically for this week's topic: Hope in a Time of Despair. This is a great way to dive deeper with a small group and to take time to read, discuss, apply, and pray for one another.

Breakthroughs in Power - Online Prayer

You're invited to join the Gathering and we would be honored to have your presence. Each week, there will be Native-Styled Musical Worship and a message from a Native Jesus-follower, plus an afterparty! Questions? Feel free to contact Ceidric Platero at ceidric.platero@intervarsity.org.

Thank you so much for joining us! We hope that despite all the changes in the COVID-19 era, you felt comforted by some InterVarsity Nostalgia. As mentioned in our Alumni Afterparty, we are hoping to make more spaces for alumni to connect with InterVarsity, our resources, and each other in the future. In the meantime, keep in the loop by joining our InterVarsity Alumni Linked In group. We’ll post our upcoming events as well as helpful content in the upcoming weeks.

God promises to finish the good work he began in us—but that doesn't come without bumps in the road. Life can be hard, faith can wane, and distractions abound. Too many today are at risk of compromising their integrity or giving up on their faith. How can we persevere to the end?

Trillia Newbell, a fellow struggler on the journey, offers encouragement and hope for us to run the race well. While life may be full of challenges, we have a true and real hope in Jesus, who provides us with what we need to endure through pain and doubt. Newbell shares theological insights and practical disciplines to train us for faithful, godly living over the long haul.

The race is hard, but you are not running it alone. Find strength and courage here to endure and finish well.

Our culture is frantic with worry. We stress over circumstances we can't control, we talk about what's keeping us up at night and we wring our hands over the fate of disadvantaged people all over the world, almost as if to show we care and that we have big things to care about. Worry is part of our culture, an expectation of responsible people. And sadly, Christians are no different.

But we are called to live and think differently from the worried world around us. The fact is, worry is sin, but we don?t seem to take it seriously. It is a spiritual problem, which ultimately cannot be overcome with sheer willpower—its solution is rooted entirely in who God is.

How can we live life abundantly, with joy, as God has called us to do, when we?re consumed by anxiety?
