## Resource

Even in the midst of uncertainty, the promise of a brighter day can stir hope like sunlight breaking through storm clouds. It’s the quiet assurance that no matter how heavy the moment feels, clarity and warmth are on the horizon. A brighter day invites renewal—an opportunity to breathe deeper, smile wider, and believe again in the beauty of possibility. It’s not just about better weather or good fortune; it’s about the shift within, when resilience meets optimism and the heart dares to dream forward. That glimmer, however faint, is enough to keep going. For almost 50 years, Joel McCausland and Kevin Peay of Afterglow have been writing, recording and performing inspirational music for people of faith around the globe. Behind their songs, however, are the stories that have enriched and informed their lives--stories of faith and family, challenges and triumphs, joy and trials. Join us to discover both the stories and songs of Afterglow!
