Resilience: the final talk
This morning I delivered the final talk in a series of three on the topic of resilience. Putting it that way doesn’t do justice to the subject matter because “resilience” is much much more than a topic of course; it’s a trait that should be present in every follower of Jesus who wants to life live to the full.
Over the last three weeks newlifers have studied the life of Habakkuk; a prophet of Judah at the time of great oppression. He is an inspirational character because he is so much like us and brings resilience within reaching distance of you and me.>br>
Habakkuk cried out to God about the circumstances he was surrounded by, heard God answer in a way that would have shocked and scared him, and eventually emerged at the end of the book …. get this …. with exactly the same circumstances facing him. The difference; he had changed inwardly, he was bigger on the inside.
To learn the 4 ingredients of a resilient person have a listen to this podcast. I have placed the powerpoint presentation here too in place of the usual mindmap (unfortunately I scribbled too heavily on the mindmap for it to become useless for anyone other than me).
