Trust is a funny thing. By that I mean how we sometimes trust but other times not so much. For example, we trust that as we approach on coming traffic on the highway those drivers will follow the rules and stay on their own side of the road, even though they may be disregarding the rules about speed. We may not trust a politician yet we elect them and trust them to run the country we live in. In the same way we call on God in times of trouble yet trusting His word, His promises, His plan for our eternity, not so much. This month, Gene Appel who ministers with Eastside Christian Church in Anaheim, California has been walking us through the book of First Peter gleaning from its pages foundational life concepts that will help us live out Unshakeable Hope. One of the original 12 followers of Christ, Peter penned the letter of first Peter to early Christians to help them live in Hope through Unwavering Trust in the Eternal God and His plan for redemption through Jesus His Son. Okay, did you know that Trust is not just a noun, but also a verb? Here's Gene Appel with a piece of the action To support this ministry financially, visit: https://www.oneplace.com/donate/326/29

Have you ever wondered, what drives this world, where this world is headed? Ever wanted to just shout: Stop the world, I want off.

I'm sure you've heard it somewhere, sometime. Someone talking about faith. You might have even heard it defined something like faith is being sure of what we hope for and certain of what we don't see.
