I am pleased to offer this essay, “The Hope Chest,” written by my close friend, Pat Knapp. Patrick J. Knapp, Ph.D., has written Understanding Religious Abuse and Recovery: Discovering Essential Principles for Hope and Healing (Wipf and Stock, 2021), and co-leads the cult recovery ministry, Becoming Free, with his wife, Heidi. - Douglas Groothuis, Ph.D.

The Hope Chest is such a beautiful concept—slow, intentional gathering feels rare nowadays. When I need a break from that mindful pace, I head over to Mini World Cup 2026 to test my football predictions for the upcoming tournament across North America!
I really enjoy reading your blog post Level devil. You really did share an interesting and educational blog post with everyone.
In a world that’s so focused on 'fast' everything, I really appreciate the sentiment of slow, intentional gathering, whether it’s a hand-knit textile, a piece of unique ceramics, or a family heirloom. When I want to keep that relaxed, creative energy going without any of the daily stress, I love to play a few rounds of FishEatFish.
This beautiful metaphor of the hope chest resonates deeply. In times when we collectively preserve fragments of optimism, I'm grateful for platforms like poki games that safeguard spaces for lightheartedness — their free online games become digital hope chests storing moments of pure, accessible joy for when we need them most.
