Identifying and transitioning from a false, man-made HOPE, to a God-breathed HOPE can often be difficult. WHY? Because of the very strong emotions and desires associated with HOPE and the pressures of circumstances and external expectations. But there's HOPE for HOPE! In this final episode of the teaching series entitled, "The Disciple's HOPE" and the last teaching of 2019, Joseph Sissac revisits the story of the Shunammite woman in 2 Kings 4 to help us understand what it means to "hope against hope"(Rom. 4:18), and trust in what the Lord has spoken even when we don't understand. Be encouraged! There's a greater level of HOPE to believe in that doesn't disappoint.

HOPE can be deceiving. Why? Because we're all capable of falling into the trap of placing our hope in the wrong thing. We can also bury our hopes deep down due to repeat disappointment and failure. In part 2 of the this year-end series called "The Disciple's Hope", Joseph Sissac looks at another example from the Old Testament and teaches on evaluating and discerning the difference between a false hope and a true hope. Get ready to learn and be encouraged in the HOPE that doesn't disappoint.

You'll be both challenged and encouraged to evaluate what you're hoping in, and make sure that you are indeed hoping in the Lord.

The final episode in this teaching series looks at the place in scripture where we see the word "MEDITATE" repeated the most, Psalm 119.

In Part 4 of our teaching series called "Take Your Meds" we look at an example from scripture of someone with a tremendous vision from the Lord who used meditation to carry them through to realizing the promises of God. We can all do it, IF we all do it. We can worry about what could happen. Or meditate on what God declared will happen. This episode also includes our first meditative prayer audio during the last 5 minutes.

In this third teaching on Biblical meditation we take a look at Psalm 1 and again find out just how powerful and life-changing God's plan for meditation is. Our minds can and will be transformed when we make the choice to use our minds the way God intended. Like a tree planted by a stream, Biblical meditation connects us to the wisdom, promises and power of God, no matter what season of life we're going through.

Joseph Sissac continues to go deeper in understanding what Biblical meditation is all about by taking a closer look at the experiences of Joshua and the Children of Israel. You'll learn that we can all grow and change if we focus on the right information. Meditation is not just for those who do yoga or practice Buddhism. It's for the disciple of Jesus Christ to put to work and experience great success. In this episode you'll learn the role that the heart plays in our decision-making and meditation.
