episode What Happened to the Woman Behind Roe v. Wade? cover

Description

Jane Roe, the woman at the center of Roe v Wade, believed for years that some things were too far gone for God to forgive. Then everything changed. In today's Daily Hope, Pastor John Dickerson tells the true story of Norma McCorvey, the woman who became known as Jane Roe in the case that legalized abortion nationwide in 1973. Years later, a pastor led her to faith in Christ, and Norma described it like being handed a cup of water she did not know she was thirsty for. Drawing from John 4:15 and the story of the woman at the well, Pastor Dickerson shows how McCorvey moved from confusion and regret to forgiveness, purpose, and a passion for defending life. Her striking 2005 Senate testimony reveals the moment she asked God to forgive her and dedicated the rest of her life to helping women and children. This message is part of a series on America's Great Awakenings, tracing the moments God has moved powerfully across the nation as we pray for the next one. Daily Hope with Pastor John Dickerson exists to help you take one step closer to God every day, no matter where you are in your journey.

Why Apollo 8 Read Genesis 1 from the Moon

Why did the Apollo 8 astronauts read Genesis 1 from the moon? During one of the most uncertain seasons in American history, they chose to share the Bible's opening words with an estimated one billion people around the world. In today's Daily Hope, Pastor John S. Dickerson reflects on this unforgettable Christmas Eve broadcast and reminds us that God often opens unexpected doors for His truth to shine. Just as Scripture brought hope in a time of fear and division, God still calls His people to faithfully represent Christ wherever He gives us influence. As we pray for the next Great Awakening, may we be ready to step through every door God opens and boldly point others to Him.

Martin Luther King Jr's Hidden Bible Verses in I Have a Dream

Did you know Martin Luther King Jr's famous I Have a Dream speech was built on four powerful Bible verses? In this episode of Daily Hope, we continue our journey through the Fourth Great Awakening, exploring how a pastor's kid from Ebenezer Baptist Church grew up to lead a nation through one of its most divided moments in history. You'll discover the four scriptures MLK quoted in his most famous speech, Amos 5:24, Isaiah 40:4-5, Psalm 30:5, and Galatians 3:28, and how faith fueled a movement toward love, unity, and truth when hatred and division threatened to tear the country apart. Daily Hope exists to help you grow closer to God every day through practical, Bible based teaching. Wherever you are on your spiritual journey, we're glad you're here.

The Man Who Led Billy Graham to Christ | Luke 1:50

What if one prayer you prayed today reached millions of people — long after you're gone? In today's Daily Hope, Pastor John S. Dickerson tells the true story of Mordecai Ham, the traveling evangelist who led a 16-year-old farm boy named Billy to the Lord. That boy was Billy Graham — who went on to share the gospel with over 250 million people live, with more than two million known conversions. It all traces back to one faithful servant, on his knees in a hotel room, praying for souls he couldn't yet see. Luke 1:50 says God's mercy extends to those who fear Him from generation to generation. Mordecai Ham didn't know what God would do through that revival meeting in Charlotte. You don't know what God will do through yours either. Keep being faithful with the gifts you have. Text "DAILY" to 71093 to receive Daily Hope videos sent to your phone every day.

How Billy Graham Led a President to Faith | The Fourth Great Awakening

On his deathbed, President Eisenhower looked at Billy Graham and asked: "Would you tell me again?" In today's Daily Hope, Pastor John S. Dickerson shares the remarkable true story of how Billy Graham walked alongside Dwight D. Eisenhower — from the early days of his Presidency to his final hours at Walter Reed Army Hospital. At the heart of it all was the gospel: salvation by grace through faith in Christ alone, not by anything we can do for ourselves. This is what revival looks like up close. One faithful person, willing to share the gospel again and again, until a soul is ready. If you've ever wondered whether God can use you to reach someone important, this story is for you.
