How To Deal with the Pain in Your Life

&quot;After getting married, it took Tim nine months to find a job. For date nights with his wife, he recalls only being able to order from the dollar menu at Wendy&#39;s. Through it all he learned that we can choose what we focus on when looking at our past.&quot;

How to Use the Pain

From a young age, Tim Ross had one goal: become a homicide detective. But while he had his plans, God had plans for Tim too. Here he encourages us to hold our plans loosely and leave room for what God wants to do.

Hold Your Plans Loosely

When it came to church, Tim was ready to quit. He explains the results of facing adversity when it comes: it makes us stronger. In fact, the Lord promises to use our struggles for growth. Don&#39;t give up, because the best is yet to come.

Don't Give Up Now

Tim was hurt and betrayed by a close mentor. His experience left him with a choice: would he go on being a victim? Or, would he go on to overcome? He explains the decision and why your choices matters too.

Are You Tired of Being the Victim?

After moving to a new city, Tim had his apartment broken into and lost his job... all in the same week. Devastated and frustrated... his response to his circumstances would lead to an eye-opening event 18 years later.

What To Do With the Pain

&quot;Too many times we try to be the person who is good at everything. We want to be the best. Tim Ross looks at the story of Joseph and finds a fascinating nugget that can be applied to our lives, and it &#39;s more about doing less, not more.&quot;

Why You Need to Do Less

While driving home with his wife and two friends after dinner, Tim shares a dramatic experience and what he learned from his time in jail. He explains that success in any area of life revolves around being a good steward.

What It Means to Be A Good Steward

&quot;While serving at a church, Tim was “demoted” from speaker to door greeter. He decided to approach his new position with the same vigor as before. You know what happened? Well, we’ll let him tell you. He shares a valuable lesson that will move your life forward.&quot;

Why We All Need You

Tim was shocked by the words, “God is offended by your faith&quot;. Who did this person think he was? Tim had been struggling to make a career decision that would have forced him to trust God more. He has some encouragement for anyone facing something similar.
