PAIN → PURPOSE™
What if God could use the very experiences, you wish you could erase to reveal something about what you were created to do? Pain changes us. Sometimes it makes us stronger. Sometimes it leaves us questioning who we are. Sometimes it causes us to hide parts of our story because we don't know what to do with them. But what if your story isn't finished?
PAIN → PURPOSE™ is a transformational, faith-centered speaking experience that helps participants explore the connection between their experiences, passions, God-given gifts, and the people they may be uniquely equipped to serve.
This isn't about pretending your pain was good. It's not about finding a simplistic explanation for everything you've experienced. And it's not about forcing yourself to “move on.” It's about discovering that what happened to you does not have to become the definition of who you are.
THE P.U.R.P.O.S.E. PROCESS
P — PAUSE
Slow down and acknowledge the experiences that shaped you.
U — UNDERSTAND
Identify the lessons, strengths, compassion, and perspective that emerged.
R — REDEEM
Ask, “God, what can You do with this?”
P — PURPOSE
Discover the intersection of your experience, passion, gifts, and people.
O — OWN
Separate what happened to you from who you are.
S — SERVE
Consider who could benefit from what you've learned.
E — ENGAGE
Take the next faithful step.
