We have a simple goal - to accurately and fully share the messages in the Bible.
Welcome to A Reason for Hope
We're glad you found your way to A Reason for Hope. Our mission is to give people the true and lasting hope that Jesus and his disciples boasted to have for the world. We aim to do this by offering sermons and other resources created largely by our teacher, Don Patterson. Don's philosophy is simple: Love God. Love People.
Take time to tour this website and try out some of the sermons. Daily prayers are posted every weekday morning. You can subscribe to have them show up in your inbox, see them here, or on Facebook. We believe that your faith and hope life will be enlarged by the work of God here.
We would love it if you share our messages with others. Hopefully, we have made that easy for you to do. If you are touched by a particular message then send it along. Once you listen to a sermon or read a devotion or daily prayer, its yours! Use it to encourage others however you wish. No one has the copyright to truth except Jesus. So, share boldly.
We love suggestions for improvements, too. If you know of a feature that we should explore, click here and leave a comment. We will take every suggestion seriously.
Don't wait any longer. Go to one of our other pages and start increasing your hope in God and his plan for your life!
