Embracing Trials: Allowing Them to Fulfill Their Purpose in Your Life w/ Mila Grigg

In the Book of John, Jesus very clearly tells us that while we are in this world, we will have trouble. He’s telling us that we can expect some trials, and some tribulations, but He also tells us to take heart because he has overcome this world. Trials and tribulations are oftentimes necessary in order for us to grow and mature into whom God created us to be. Our guest today, Mila Grigg, author of the book, Forged by Fire: How to Develop an Unstoppable Personal Brand, is a true testament to walking through trials and with God’s grace and coming out on the other side more resilient with a stronger faith that can truly make beauty from ashes.
