This week on the blog, Show Hope Executive Director Kristin Parks reflects on an essential question and invitation from the Lord and shares how this impacts our work at Show Hope. “Do not be afraid. Stand firm and you will see the deliverance the LORD will bring you today. The Egyptians you see today you will never see again. The LORD will fight for you; you need only to be still.” — Exodus 14:13-14 You can read the blog at bit.ly/3YkgLLg!

#Throwback to the early days of Show Hope—and these fine folks who started it all! As Shaohannah’s Hope began to grow in the years following its founding, the Chapmans realized what began with their family had flourished into a movement beyond their earliest expectations. This prompted a more accessible (and easier to spell!) name for the organization in Show Hope!

And in this clip from Hope for the Journey, Daren Jones from the Karyn Purvis Institute of Child Development at TCU, gives us a great first look at TBRI.
