Rooted In Resilience
Have you noticed? ABNWT pastors are gritty. You’ve combined passion and perseverance to find a way through the adversity, trauma, and threats of a pandemic. Resilience is what gives grit its elasticity, which is why RESILIENT is a good choice for the word of the year in 2021.
Resilience is bounce back ability. It’s is the opposite of fragile. Resilience can be summed up in three words: keep moving on.
Your answers to three simple questions will help you redeem setbacks for comebacks.
What hurts?
What helps?
What fruit do you want to come out of this?
