Drawing from James 1:2–3, Mike unpacks how adversity, trials, and even self-inflicted mistakes serve as reps—the real-world training that forges character, deepens wisdom, and builds the kind of leadership that others are drawn to.You don’t get stronger without struggle.You don’t build resilience without resistance.And you don’t become the leader others need without facing things you never asked for.The question isn’t “Why is this happening to me?”It’s “What is this building in me?”If you’ve faced tough seasons in leadership, this is your reminder that pain has purpose—and you’re being shaped for something greater.Like, Subscribe, and share this with a leader who's in the fire right now and needs to hear this.
