Curated from the "60 Seconds of Hope" podcast, "It's Good to Believe" reflects on every aspect of what it means to live in faith, hope, and love while fighting for liberation, freedom, and wellbeing. It uses a series of clear, concise, and compelling meditations that take less than 60 seconds when read aloud.

Blessed are those who have not seen and yet have come to believe." (John 20:29) Let us believe in the power of love and place our hope in that alone. We can't be certain, but it is so good to believe.
