Finding Hope in Our Uncertainties

Where were you when? Every generation has its “where were you when” question about some cultural seismic event. Where were you when Neil Armstrong landed on the moon? Where were you when you heard JFK or Martin Luther King Jr. had been shot and killed? Where were you when you heard about Columbine? Where were you on 9/11? Some of those examples pre-date many of us, but we all have a new one we can share: Where were you when you first realized this coronavirus was for real? 

Moments like these are big. They change things. There’s no going back. Culture shifts. Our lives are never the same. Unfortunately, many of these tend to be negative events, catastrophes, or tragedies. They strike with no warning and introduce a new sense of uncertainty into our lives.
