Episode Synopsis

One of the expectations many have about following Jesus is that He will magically begin to bless their lives and give them everything they think they need. Unfortunately most of those "blessings" are simply material things that may make life easier but certainly don't make it better. Some even promise, if you choose Jesus He'll give you that new car, job, house, spouse or lifestyle you believe you deserve. But Jesus never promised that. In fact, He doesn't guarantee the absence of pain from your life, just the promise of presence in your life. In part 1 of Great Expectations we'll look at several people through whom God accomplished incredible things, yet they never received the one thing that was actually promised. In spite of this, they all died with faith in-spite of never receiving their promise.
