It’s irrational to buy a lottery ticket. Yet millions do, even more when the prize gets huge. According to Seth Godin, the odds of winning the $1.6 billion MegaMillions lottery are minuscule. You’re 400 times more likely to be hit by lightening. He points out that for some people, paying for the ticket is a bargain because it offers them something important than winning: hope. It’s true, we all need hope to survive. Where can true hope be found? Pastor Tara VinCross will speak from the apostle Paul’s own lived experience about Hope in Christ, a hope that is lasting and does not depend on circumstances.
