ABOUT US
Our mission
“Welcome to Hope In The Lamb, where we encourage one another with the hope we have in Jesus Christ–the Lamb of God, looking past today’s turmoil to embrace God’s transformative Kingdom. We are a community of peacemakers, deeply rooted in faith, hope, and the love we have for God and others. Together, we are confident in our King’s ultimate victory. Our hope is in the Lamb!”
Welcome
In these tumultuous times, as we navigate through a world fraught with political tension and strife, it’s imperative to remember the unshakeable foundation upon which we stand and place our hope. The world may seem engulfed in a state of constant upheaval, divisions may run deep, and the future might look uncertain. Yet, in the midst of these trials, we are beckoned to anchor our hearts and minds in a truth that transcends all earthly turmoil: Jesus Christ, our Lord, Savior, and the reigning King, who is already seated on the throne.
Our faith does not shield us from conflict or discomfort; rather, it gifts us with the peace and hope that surpass earthly understanding. Jesus Himself assures us, “In the world, you will have tribulation. But take heart; I have overcome the world.” (John 16:33, ESV). This declaration is not a mere call to endurance but an invitation to share in His victory, a victory that has inaugurated His Kingdom among us.
As citizens of this Kingdom, our response to the surrounding political tensions is not marked by fear or despair but characterized by faith and hope. We are called to embody the salt and light of the earth, ministering the healing and illuminating truth of the Gospel in every corner of our lives. This entails engaging with others in grace and love, seeking divine wisdom, and interceding fervently for our leaders, communities, and nations.
Moreover, we must resist being carried away by the shifting sands of human opinion and politics, choosing instead to focus our minds on things above, not on earthly things (Colossians 3:2). Our citizenship in heaven (Philippians 3:20) reframes our earthly engagements within the grand narrative of God’s eternal Kingdom. This Kingdom perspective does not absolve us from our temporal duties but empowers us to fulfill them with integrity and courage, as ambassadors of Christ’s reign.
In embracing our identity as residents of the Kingdom already at work among us, we tap into the strength to navigate our times with faithfulness and valor. We are reminded that our hope lies not in the rulers of this age but in Jesus, who has definitively triumphed over sin, death, and division, and who invites us into the unfolding story of His Kingdom.
Let us therefore encourage one another with these truths, striving for unity in the Spirit and peace that binds us together (Ephesians 4:2-3). May our lives profoundly testify to the hope we possess, attracting others to the steadfast love and truth found in Christ.
In these challenging times, let us cling unwaveringly to our hope, for the One who made the promise is faithful (Hebrews 10:23). Let us place our trust and hope firmly in Jesus, who is the same yesterday, today, and forever (Hebrews 13:8), the King who has overcome the world reigns supreme, inviting us into His eternal, victorious Kingdom.
We’re glad you’re here!
