"Coal Matters!"

What happens to us when God puts us under intense pressure over time… when He puts us to the refiners fire? God is not interested in making us rich, or for us to be respected by the world. He's interested in real, authentic growth. And that growth does not happen without pressure, without pain. The refiners fire of God's hand, the pressure that God allows us to be placed under, is what takes the normal and leads it to the extraordinary. God himself, being directly interested in our growth, our development, our ability to impact others, for HIS namesake! 1 Peter 1:6-7 / Job 23:10 / Matthew 3:11-12
