In this episode, Dare Akinsanya dives deep into a truth many believers overlook: faith cannot exist without hope. Drawing from 1 Peter 1:3, Dare explores how biblical hope is not wishful thinking or emotional optimism, but a living, anchored confidence in the faithfulness of God.

You’ll discover how hope and faith rise and fall together — and why a weakened hope can quietly undermine strong faith. Through Scripture and real-life reflection, this message unveils how God designed hope to be both the anchor of the soul and the atmosphere of true faith.

Dare also exposes how modern culture has diluted the meaning of hope, replacing it with wishfulness. But the Bible restores its strength — defining hope as confident expectation rooted in God’s character, not our circumstances.

Key passages include 1 Peter 1:3, Romans 5:5, Hebrews 6:19, and Psalm 5:12 — each showing that hope is not just something we hold; it is Someone we live in. Because if Christ is our hope, and He lives in us, then we live from hope — not toward it.

If you’ve been struggling to believe again, or if your faith feels shaken by uncertainty, this episode will remind you that your hope was never meant to depend on what you see, but on who He is.

💡 In this episode you’ll learn:

• Why biblical hope and faith are inseparable.
• How misplaced hope weakens faith.
• What it means to live from hope instead of for hope.
• How hope acts as the believer’s anchor in times of trial.
• How to restore your confidence through the promises of God.
