Description

When you've been hurt, what kind of character will you be?


  • God gives you hardship as a Storyteller does: because readers love what happens when a character is down but finds a way to get back up;

  • Remember that it's in the cellars of affliction that God makes his choicest wines (Rutherford);

  • Be at once tender and merciless with your own victimhood;

  • Stop assuming nobody else at church has the dark backstory of trauma and abuse that you do.

  • Take heart from Grandpa Jim, who used to "get chose" to fight the bullies every day after school.
