YOUR DOLLARS ARE A VOTE FOR SANITY. CONSIDER BECOMING A PAID SUBSCRIBER TODAY - IT IS THE EASIEST WAY TO SUPPORT THIS WORK IN THE WORLD.
I am a practicing Religious Scientist and if you don't know what that is, it is one who practices the Science of Mind, I know that hope is not a word used often in the vernacular of our communities however I have been trying to resurrect the idea of hope for years. Hope is like the old-fashioned door to door salesman who after being told no would stick his foot in the door to hold the door open so he could try harder to sell his product.
Hope is how we keep the door open as we wait for a shift in the climate. Hope is how we keep our emotions elevated and our expectations looking forward toward solution, toward possibility, and toward a life, a country, and a political system that wants to love and support all people within our borders.
Let's cultivate hope together. DON’T GIVE UP NOW.
Hope Is a Spiritual Muscle—Use It Daily
Just like faith, hope strengthens with practice. It is not naive optimism—it’s a conscious choice to believe in the possibility of good even when the evidence is shaky. Even when the world feels chaotic, hope says, “This is not the end of the story.” Choosing to hope is choosing to remain spiritually awake, even in darkness.
“To him who believes, all things are possible.” —
Ernest Holmes, Science of Mind
YOU Are Not Powerless—You Are Creative Power in Motion
Fear tells us we’re stuck. Hope reminds us we can act, speak, vote, serve, and shine. You may not control the headlines, but you absolutely influence your corner of the world. Every loving gesture, every brave word, every effort to uplift—matters.
“We must become the change we wish to see in the world.” —Gandhi
Fear May Be Loud, But Love Is Stronger
We live in a noisy culture, but that does not mean it’s telling the truth. Behind every fear-based headline is an opportunity to embody love, justice, and unity. Hope is not a denial of reality—it’s a refusal to bow to despair. You get to decide what energy you carry forward. Let it be light.
“Perfect love casteth out fear.” —1 John 4:18
History Proves It: We Rise. WE ARE STRONGER TOGETHER.
We have been here before. As a people, as a planet, as individuals. And what do we do? We rise, again and again. Hope is grounded in knowing that change is possible and often begins with one person refusing to give up. Let that person be you!
“No matter what the problem, the answer is always spiritual.” —Ernest Holmes
Hope Is Contagious—Be a Carrier
Your hope might be the spark that lights someone else’s flame. In this moment, we need hope-bearers more than ever. Keep hope alive not just for you—but for the collective. Your grounded optimism, your clear voice, your compassionate presence helps others stand taller.
“Live as if you already are what you wish to become.” —Ernest Holmes
Be the spark that lights the flame of hope in the heart of others.
