Episode 95 – Holding Out Hope

In this episode, Amy shares the words of a song by Kenyatta Emmanuel. You can view a performance of Emmanuel performing Holding Out Hope at Carnegie Hall. Today’s reading tells the story of a woman holding out hope for her daughter. Her story is the story of all who at some point in life are “othered” by those in positions of authority. The good news of Jesus reminds us that God’s capacity for mercy and grace is bigger than even our biggest vision of God’s openness!
