Without our faith in Christ, we have no hope, nor does the world around us...all is doomed. Imagine a world where there is no "best case" scenario, no chance for change, everything eventually dies, and that is all...there is nothing that anyone can do about it, that's just the way it is. It's not a pretty picture is it? Whatever you imagined in your "hopeless" scenario, that is what the world would be like without Christ followers in it. Our faith in Christ shines the light of hope into even the darkest of places. Our great hope in Christ gives the world reason to believe that there is a "best case" scenario, that people can change, that our lives are impactful to others and that death is not the end. That hope brings joy. It brings joy because with Christ all things are possible. It brings joy because all things that were impossible, become possible. There is no guarantee that following Christ will fix <fill in the blank>, this is not a prosperity message. Whether people accept Christ or reject Him, there is no hope without Him.
