A Man of Hope and Good Cheer Goes Home to The Lord
Tony Snow was the rare Washington personality who was loved by everyone, including political adversaries. Tony was a joyous Christian who demonstrated positive Christianity through his optimism, generosity and courage.
All of us who seek to live as Jesus would have us live, should try to be as cheerful and optimistic as Tony Snow, especially when we endure tough times.

A year ago Tony wrote a remarkable essay for Christianity Today, Cancer’s Unexpected Blessings. Here’s a brief excerpt:
God relishes surprise. We want lives of simple, predictable ease—smooth, even trails as far as the eye can see—but God likes to go off-road. He provokes us with twists and turns. He places us in predicaments that seem to defy our endurance and comprehension—and yet don’t. By his love and grace, we persevere. The challenges that make our hearts leap and stomachs churn invariably strengthen our faith and grant measures of wisdom and joy we would not experience otherwise.
