The Hope Podcast with Lina Abujamra

Denial - Chapter one (and Intro) of ‘Don’t Tell Anyone You’re Reading This’

I'm thrilled to announce that there's some exclusive content coming your way on The Hope Podcast for the remainder of the year. Make sure to stay tuned and catch every episode – I mean it!
In today's episode, you'll have the opportunity to hear the introduction and the first chapter of my latest book, Don't Tell Anyone You're Reading This. As Janet wrote, “I think this book is a must read for anyone dealing with shame and a longing for healing, whether the struggle is of a sexual nature or something else that has become an idol in one’s life.”
Give it a listen, share it on your social media, and make sure to delve into the book if you haven't had the chance yet.
In a culture immersed in all things sexual, the battle for godliness is real. It's time to take an honest look at our competing desires and eliminate anything that stands in our way of intimacy with Christ.

I am confident because of the cross [THE CONFIDENCE SERIES #7]

In today’s podcast we’ll continue our study of Hebrews and see how Jesus, the exalted Son and high priest provides full cleansing from sin and open access to God – the reality that the Old Testament anticipated but was never meant to accomplish.
In view of understanding who Christ is, the author of Hebrews encourages Christians to hold firmly to their faith in His work in spite of adversity.
Therefore do not throw away your confidence, which has a great reward.For you have need of endurance, so that when you have done the will of God you may receive what is promised. – Hebrews 10:35-36
If you feel challenged to reconcile the victorious Christian life with the trials we’re facing, take a listen to this episode!

I am confident because He is faithful [THE CONFIDENCE SERIES #3]

One of the greatest battles we encounter as followers of Christ is the struggle against unbelief.
When our prayers go seemingly answered, when we don’t see the results we hoped for, when life hurls one curveball after another, we’re tempted to succumb to fear, disappointment, and to forget who is on our side.
In Hebrews chapter 3, the author is making a point that one of the most effective ways to fight unbelief is to consider Jesus, to think carefully about Him (Hebrews 3:1). By considering Him we will come to the realization that He is faithful, and that is all the confidence we need in the face of anything that comes our way.
If you’re going through a difficult time today, this episode will help remind you of God’s faithfulness to His people, always. Won’t you trust that He will be faithful to you as well?
