When Hope Walks Beside You
•
James Douglas
What happens when hope feels lost and prayers seem unanswered? In this powerful episode, we journey down the Emmaus Road from Luke 24 — a road marked by grief, confusion, and shattered expectations. As two disciples walk away from what they believed was the end, they’re unknowingly joined by the risen Jesus. This message explores how Christ meets us in our most disappointing moments, not with condemnation but with compassion — walking beside us, listening, and gently rekindling hope through His Word and presence. If you’ve ever whispered “we had hoped”, this episode is for you.
