Diagnosing the problem of our era as a failure of hope, Irwyn Ince shares the fruit of his profound meditations, study, and preaching of the book of Hebrews. This is the kind of strong medicine needed to restore hope in a generation that has been disappointed by apathy, injustice, and scandal. He shows us that the hope of the gospel is the secret to joy and endurance. For those who are discouraged, sorrowful, and struggling, this wise book helps us to have eyes to see the beauty of Jesus anew.\" \u003cb\u003e- Tish Harrison Warren, Anglican priest and author of \u003ci\u003ePrayer in the Night \u003c\/i\u003e\u003c\/b\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cb\u003eSometimes hope can feel like a scam--a swindle, a hustle.\u003c\/b\u003e You thought it was real, and you bought into it. But then the tables turn, and you feel like you've been hustled--like you've been had.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eAs Christians, we often respond to the brokenness of life as if we do not actually have hope--as if the promises of God are not really certain. But Pastor Irwyn Ince assures us that not only do we have hope, but that hope cannot disappoint us because it is validated by God himself. \u003ci\u003eHope Ain't a Hustle\u003c\/i\u003e is a clear and accessible exploration of the epistle to the Hebrews, urging us to place our confidence in the finished work of our great high priest, Jesus Christ, and showing how that confidence changes the way we live in the here and now.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eIt's not that Christians don't face grief or anger, disappointment or deep sorrow. It's that we don't face them as those \"who have no hope.\"\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch3\u003eAuthor Biography\u003c\/h3\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eIrwyn L.
