In this episode I explore the story behind the story of one of America's most unusual named cities. We're going to learn about the story behind the name of the town, Toad Suck, Arkansas. Yes… Toad. Suck.

Now before you reach for the map to double-check, let me assure you, this is not a typo, a prank, or a dare gone wrong. This is a real place, with a real history, and a name that has confused travelers, amused locals, and raised eyebrows for generations.

You might be wondering, who named it? Why did it stick? And perhaps most importantly… what exactly were they thinking?

Well, that’s exactly what we’re about to find out.

What happens when what we’re hoping for… doesn’t happen?

In this episode of Travel With A Purpose, we explore the powerful difference between hoping for something and hoping in Someone. Drawing from 1 Peter 1:3–5, we’re reminded that while our circumstances may change, our hope does not have to.

It’s natural to hope for better days, restored relationships, or answers to prayer. But when our hope is tied only to outcomes, it can feel fragile and uncertain. God offers something deeper, a living hope anchored in the resurrection of Jesus Christ.

Join us as we discover how shifting our focus from what we’re hoping for to who we’re hoping in brings stability, peace, and confidence—no matter what we face.

If you’ve ever felt discouraged when the journey doesn't unfold the way you expected, this episode will gently remind you: your hope is not lost… it’s secure.

Because true hope isn’t found in outcomes, it’s found in Christ.
