What sources of motivation power the performance of your roles? Not only is perseverance a challenge, but it has so many imposters.
There are so many broken versions of true motivation that offer us a way forward just when we’re in a pinch or when we’re sitting in silence waiting impatiently for some fresh inspiration. It seems that it takes some suffering to strip away our ambition and expose our egotistic motivation. And it’s deeply unsettling to be left with what feels like nothing.
Perhaps you’ve been through this or are going through this even now. We require many rounds of training here. This talk explores three elements of the courage to endure.
- The example of the faithful
- The life and victory of Jesus
- The hope of the resurrection
John Coblentz offers these three sources of motivation that draw us towards what’s real, true, and beautiful. John has taught, led, pastored, and counseled in a variety of places. He now serves at Faith Builders and is part of the leadership of a church in Meadville Pennsylvania.
