Staying the Course in Hard Seasons

Every church faces seasons of discouragement — attendance dips, conflict rises, or the vision feels clouded.

In those moments, resilience matters. Resilience is built by remembering why you started, leaning on prayer, and refusing to give up on God’s call. “Let us not become weary in doing good, for at the proper time we will reap a harvest if we do not give up” (Galatians 6:9).

Churches worth staying for are not perfect — they are persevering.

Call to Action: If your church is in a hard season, gather a small group to pray and remind each other of God’s promises.
