Hope Is Our Choice: How to Guard It From Thieves
Presented by Pastor Erin Canter

When you are supporting someone you love who is living with mental illness, life may not unfold the way you expected. Relationships can change, circumstances can take unexpected turns, and the hopes you once had for your loved one—or for your own life—may look very different than you imagined. 

In this encouraging and biblically grounded presentation, Pastor Erin Canter explores what happens when our expectations don’t align with God’s. Through Scripture, personal insight, and practical application, Erin encourages participants to recognize how expectations can lead to disappointment and discover how changing our perspective can help us navigate difficult seasons with greater trust and hope.

You’ll Learn:

• How expectations can shape our experiences of disappointment
• Why disappointment often begins when reality doesn’t match what we expected
• How to recognize when our expectations may be different from God’s perspective
• Why God’s answers and timing may look different than we anticipated
• How to trust Jesus when He doesn’t respond to our circumstances as we hoped
• Practical ways to shift our perspective and find hope in unexpected circumstances
• How trusting God can change the way we support and walk alongside someone we love

Whether you are supporting a spouse, child, family member, or friend living with mental illness, this session offers biblical encouragement and practical wisdom for navigating disappointment, releasing expectations, and trusting God when life doesn’t turn out the way you thought it would.
