All You Need is a Mustard Seed: Between Hope and Despair

by Renïe Rizzo

Overview

Many times, books on hope cover a particular topic for a particular season, which is vital. This book reflects on the many different seasons one encounters on their life's journey and how to resist hopelessness that can creep up over time.

This book is for those firmly rooted in the church, hurt by, or on the fringe with their church and/or God. It is also for those searching for hope again. You may be someone struggling to find a safe place to talk about your despair because you don't want anyone to know your hope is waning. Welcome to your safe space!

Basically, this book is for anyone looking for their hope to be renewed!

The book tackles topics like:
·      What is eternal hope versus earthly hope?
·      How do you have hope when you are not happy?
·      How do you face hope when you have been waiting for what seems like a very long time?
·      How do you have hope in the midst of obstacles, roadblocks and fears?
·      And how do you guard your heart when you are in a hopeful season?

Renée combines bible stories, personal stories, and other practical elements she calls her 'hope toolbox' to weave in the central theme of choosing hope no matter what. She is a firm believer that all you really need is a mustard seed's size of hope to get you through all life will throw at you. Renée is frank and vulnerable as she points to the source of hope and a roadmap to get there.
