The document discusses how adversity can be refining and bring blessings. It notes that while adversity is painful, good can come from such experiences through God's grace. Adversity allows one to demonstrate courage, exposes weaknesses to be strengthened, and is sometimes part of God's plan for growth into Christ-likeness. The greatest hardships can produce the greatest blessings, as Jesus' suffering led to eternal life.
Based on "Respectable Sins" by Jerry Bridges, this lesson examines unthankfulness. We have a tendency to take God's blessings for granted or to recognize God's hand at work in difficult circumstances.

Pain always has a purpose in a child of God's life. The devil has a purpose--to weaken our faith. God has a purpose--to cause us to grow so He can promote us on earth and in heaven.

In the Gospel of John, we are told that Andrew met Jesus, with that burning zeal went and found his brother Simon Peter and brought him to Jesus. Jesus looked at him and said, "You are Simon son of John, but you shall be called Cephas". What did Jesus saw in Peter? What does Jesus sees in you today? How does one keep the flame alive? In what ways do I share or give testimony of the love of Jesus to others? As leaders, we are to seek Him, receive Him, know Him, love Him, serve Him and be like Him, you know….. it’s all about Jesus.

The Game of Adversity: 8 Principles to Turn Life's Toughest Moments into You...Nick DiNardo
We’re too comfortable. Growing up, we’re all taught that the best situation is the one where everything goes according to plan. Adversity is something to be avoided or, at the very least, tolerated.
This book is here to tell you the opposite.
Adversity is the ultimate opportunity to learn and grow. In fact, it’s the key to unlocking success, if only we can learn to embrace it and apply its lessons constructively. By diving into the stories of some of the greatest athletes, coaches, and sports figures of all time, this book will explore the common thread that brings them all together: using hardship as fuel to unlock opportunity.
By breaking down the eight characteristics that we need to cultivate to make the most of adversity, this book will be your guide in leveraging your challenges into the critical life skills necessary to thrive.

Homily: The Solemnity of the Most Holy Trinity Sunday 2024.docxJames Knipper
Countless volumes have been written trying to explain the mystery of three persons in one true God, leaving us to resort to metaphors such as the three-leaf clover to try to comprehend the Divinity. Many of us grew up with the quintessential pyramidal Trinity structure of God at the top and Son and Spirit in opposite corners. But what if we looked at this ‘mystery’ from a different perspective? What if we shifted our language of God as a being towards the concept of God as love? What if we focused more on the relationship within the Trinity versus the persons of the Trinity? What if stopped looking at God as a noun…and instead considered God as a verb? Check it out…

In Jude 17-23 Jude shifts from piling up examples of false teachers from the Old Testament to a series of practical exhortations that flow from apostolic instruction. He preserves for us what may well have been part of the apostolic catechism for the first generation of Christ-followers. In these instructions Jude exhorts the believer to deal with 3 different groups of people: scoffers who are "devoid of the Spirit", believers who have come under the influence of scoffers and believers who are so entrenched in false teaching that they need rescue and pose some real spiritual risk for the rescuer. In all of this Jude emphasizes Jesus' call to rescue straying sheep, leaving the 99 safely behind and pursuing the 1.

Refining Blessings Of Adversity

16. Carrot, Egg, Coffee The carrot seems strong, but under trial wilts. The egg seems fairly formidable but under trial becomes very hard in the inside; still looks the same from the outside, but its inside is stiff. But the coffee bean is altogether different. It changes the hot water. The very circumstance that brings the pain is changed into something that changes the environment.
