033-03 What Doesn’t Kill You Makes You Stronger

Download Audio | Download NoteSheet

Note: I really didn’t feel very strong about this message. I struggled with it all week long and then went on the Men’s Fishing Trip over the weekend. I was mentally exhausted on Sunday and because a few good set-up team members were missing or late, I was distracted again. As a result, I didn’t feel very good about the message, but I’d love to get your comments on how you think it went.

It’s a widely held belief that what doesn’t kill you will make you stronger, but we still don’t want to go through the process it takes to get stronger. In this message, I try to show how having a priority of progress can put pain in perspective.
