STRENGTHENED THROUGH SUFFERING
James 1:2-3 says: “Count it all joy, my brothers, when you meet trials of various kinds, for you know that the testing of your faith produces steadfastness.” James was speaking to the truth that emerging on the other side of a trial will make you stronger. Learn more in the video below.
VETERAN STORIES
The veterans that you’ve met throughout this program have all rebuilt their lives and grown resilient through their healing. Listen to how two of them describe their rebuilt lives.
GOD IS OUR REBUILDER
With our strength, rebuilding and resilience are impossible. It is God’s work in our lives that gives us the power to heal and grow stronger.
Read the following verses and think about what God is accomplishing in and through you. Take the time to thank God for how his power is made perfect in our weakness.
James 1:2-5, Genesis 50:18-20, 1 Peter 1:6-7, 2 Corinthians 12:9-10, Hebrews 10:24-25
Reflect & Respond
Optional Tip: Journaling your responses to the scripture and follow up questions can help you process what you're learning and see your progress towards healing over time.
We pray that this study will encourage you to have courageous conversations with your military peers. Rebuilding and resilience happen best within a trusted community. What do can you do to take that next step?
