God of Hope

Peter J. Leithart
4.18/5 (17 ratings)
Read Now Download Now
In God of Hope, Peter J. Leithart writes about the nature of hope in the wake of a pandemic and massive economic and political changes across the globe. The world has changed, dramatically. Christianity is no longer a "Western" religion, as the world is no longer a Western playground.

In light of such changes, Leithart shows how the Bible's vision of hope surpasses common understandings of hope as an optimistic feeling or human virtue. Hope is God’s own life, and our hope is the effect, the excess, the overplus of the work of the God of hope in us. Through the gospel, we become people of hope, dwelling in and indwelt by the God of hope.

God of Hope reckons with what it means to be saved. We are not only set back on track toward the glory of new-creation life, but also being given now the substance of future glory, as Christ our hope lives in us by His Spirit. Through us, He brings His Father’s promises to reality, until the knowledge of the Lord covers the earth as the waters cover the sea.
