We want to help people learn easy ways to share the hope and love of Christ with their neighbors in the midst of this crisis. People are searching for hope right now, and as Christians, we have an opportunity to share the one true source of hope with them. This series is meant to do just that — to share the hope of Jesus through looking at specific stories in the Bible.
“Always be prepared to give an answer to everyone who asks you to give the reason for the hope that you have.” — 1 Peter 3:15
The Content:
The Bible Stories of Hope series is a discovery Bible study on Jesus’ authority over all. Each week we’ll go through a story from the book of Luke highlighting Jesus, His love, His power, and ultimately the hope He gives us. We’ll discuss what the story teaches us, and how we should apply the lesson to our lives.
The Format:
Each session starts with a time of care, allowing each person to briefly share how they are doing. Then we move into a time of accountability where we follow up on the actions we challenged ourselves to do at the end of the previous week’s session (e.g. share the Bible story with someone else).
From there, we move into a time of studying — reading through a new Bible story and discussing the meaning and importance of the story. We answer questions from the text and then practice retelling the story so that we can build confidence in sharing it with others. Lastly, we close by thinking of someone in our sphere of influence we can share the story with in the coming days, and then we pray together.
The Series Leader:
e3 Partners’ own Troy Cooper will be leading us through the Bible Stories of Hope series.

They live on mission among the 93% unchurched communities in southern California and serve in various other parts all over the world as well.
Recordings from Previous Weeks
The White's e3 Partners Fundraiser
Over the past year our family has sensed God calling us to leave our work in the US and pursue full time missionary work on the continent of Africa. While there are still many unreached people groups and places in Africa (one person dies every six seconds apart from Christ), God has been transforming Sub Saharan Africa from a mission field to a mission force. We will be equipping, encouraging, and partnering with our African brothers and sisters to finish the task of fulfilling the Great Commission on the continent of Africa and beyond in our life time.
e3 Partners is a global missions agency advancing the Gospel and establishing the Church in over 65 countries. We belong to a body of over 400 staff and 2,000 national partners sharing his Gospel, equipping believer, and establishing new churches among the nations.
