The Hope Collective Message Podcast

Hope is the confident expectation of something better than what we're experiencing now. For some, though, the hurt and darkness of our past can obscure any vision for a future worth living for. Into this darkness, God gives us this incredible promise: He will work all things for the good of those who love him. Join Alpine Chapel for Part Three of our series, "HOPE", and hear powerful stories of Go...

Each of our lives is going somewhere. We may not be aware of it. We may not have picked the destination. But each of our lives is on a trajectory towards some ultimate end. And the difference between that reality exciting us or terrifying us is determined by whether or not we think the end of the story will be the best part. Join Alpine Chapel for Part Two of our Series, “HOPE”, and he...

When people talk about “hope”, they’re typically talking about things we wish would happen (even though we have no certainly that they will!). But when the Bible talks about hope, it’s something very different. Biblical hope assures us of a better tomorrow because it is based on the promises of a good and faithful God. Check out Part One of Alpine Chapel’s new series,...

When Jesus came, he didn’t come to offer us a new religion. He came to offer us a new relationship with the God of the universe. Like any relationship, though, there are times when we must take stock of where we’re at and decide how we’re going to move forward. Luckily, we have a God who is willing to work through whatever difficulty comes between us. Will we be willing, too? Joi...

Is your future guided by fear or faith? A future guided by fear is full of worry and drains the life out of today. A future guided by faith, though, makes tomorrow worth looking forward to. So what can we do today that allows us to live like tomorrow matters? Join Alpine for the final part of our series, “Making Change”, and listen as Lead Pastor Dave Mudd shares how our church has bee...

The research is clear: giving is good, not only for the ones who are receiving but also for the ones doing the giving. But there’s a giving that goes beyond just being “good”; it’s a giving that goes beyond the benefit we bring to ourselves and others and becomes a reflection of God’s generosity towards us. When it comes to making change, how do we move from just givi...

Nobody wants it, but we can’t seem to get rid of it: stress. No matter what we do, the stress in our lives never seems to go away. In fact, it just seems to get worse. But what if the solution to our stress has been right in front of us all along? Would we really want to take advantage of the cure that we’re offered? Check out Part Two of Alpine Chapel’s series, “Making Cha...

What would it look like for us to create more space in our lives for Jesus in 2018? It’s a big question because in order for us to create that space, there’s changes we’ll need to make in our lives. But if we have the courage to make those changes, 2018 could be our best year ever. Check out Part One of Alpine’s new series, “Making Change”, and listen as Lead Pa...

As one year comes to a close, we look forward to what the next year will hold. We dream, plan, and make resolutions all around how we want to be better tomorrow than we were yesterday. But more often than not, our attempts at change lose steam before the year is half gone. That’s because the change we really need isn’t something we can accomplish outside-in. It is something God has to...

He’s the embodiment of Christmas joy and a new holiday classic: Buddy the Elf. We laugh at his childish approach to the “grown up” world outside the North Pole but there’s a lot we can learn from his childlikeness, especially when it comes to faith. So what does it look like for us to have faith like a child? Join Alpine Chapel for Part Three of our December series, “...

Charles Dickens’ A Christmas Carol is one of the most well-known Christmas stories of all time. Published over 150 years ago with over 20 film adaptations, its a story of redemption that we just can’t get enough of. But where does real redemption come from? And how do we know it when we find it? Check out Part Two of Alpine’s series, “Christmas at the Movies” and list...
