"Blessed be the God and Father of our Lord Jesus Christ, who according to His great mercy has caused us to be born again to a living hope through the resurrection of Jesus Christ from the dead." (1 Peter 1:3)

On Easter Sunday 2015, Katie Hubbard knew that she was dying. She also knew she had to stand in front of Twin City Bible Church (our home church in Illinois) and describe what it meant for her to have a living hope. She told about her cancer journey, pointed people to Jesus, and expressed her own confidence in the Lord.

Katie did not hope in a miracle cure, though we both prayed for a miracle and a cure. Instead, her living hope was anchored to the resurrection of Jesus Christ from the dead. May her testimony inspire and challenge you.

Katie refers to her four kids in her testimony. This picture was taken in April 2015.Kayla, Katie, Tom, Joe, Norman, and Rachel
