The Well

You may have heard the saying, “Where there’s life, there’s hope”, but followers of Jesus Christ can say, “Where there’s death, there’s hope.” Because our Lord Jesus has conquered death, our hope extends beyond the grave. On this episode of The Verdict, Pastor John Munro reflects on this magnificent truth as we celebrate our risen Savior.

Many teens today carry invisible burdens of fear and anxiety — sometimes not even fully understanding where those feelings come from. On this episode, Mark sits down with Abby, a Heartlight resident, who candidly shares how growing up in a community plagued by danger and uncertainty shaped her outlook on life. As she talks about overcoming trauma, anxiety and the expectations placed on her by those she loves most, Abby reveals how addressing these fears with the right support has brought healing and hope. Join us as we discuss what it really takes for parents and teens to break the cycle of worry and build trust.

When prayers feel like they’re bouncing off the ceiling and life goes sideways—what then? Pastor Erik Reed shares the gut-punch story behind his book, Uncommon Trust—a 15-year fight for his son’s life after a devastating medical mistake. This isn’t tidy faith talk about trusting God. It’s the gritty road from “God will fix it” to “but if not.” If your faith feels white-knuckled and shaky in suffering, this conversation meets you there.

It makes no sense to complain the car won’t start if it’s out of gas. It makes no sense to complain about sitting in the dark if we haven’t turned on the light switch. Well, when it comes to Christianity, author G.K. Chesterton said, “The Christian ideal has not been tried and found wanting. It has been found difficult; and left untried.” Today on A NEW BEGINNING, Pastor Greg Laurie helps us try a real walk with God. It offers joy and contentment, and dispels loneliness and discouragement.
