Video Description
Father Mike Schmitz breaks open 1 Peter 3:15 and Romans 5:3–5 to show why Christian hope isn’t hype or optimism, it’s forged through suffering → endurance → character → hope. He shares a clear definition (“Hope is trust in God extended into the future”), the “antifragile” insight (we can grow stronger through trials), and a practical missionary challenge for Monday morning: when someone asks, “How was your weekend?” Give a reason for your hope.
