This YouTube sermon excerpt by Holly Furtick advises listeners to prepare for difficult "wilderness" seasons by "taking everything you can" — i.e., using all resources and lessons available, including those acquired in earlier seasons. The speaker argues that present hardships (job loss, rejection, parenting challenges) build concrete skills and virtues (money management, humility, resilience, prayerfulness, consistency, discipline, love, grace, compassion) that serve future seasons. The piece emphasizes intentional growth: choosing to learn from hardships so they become assets rather than liabilities.

Chapters

How do you prepare for a wilderness season? You take everything you can. You don't pack light. God has given you everything you need for the season you're in. But sometimes he gives it to you in the season before the season. Everything you're going through right now is building something in you for your future. So maybe you lost your job, but you're learning how to manage your money when there's nothing coming in. Maybe you've had your ideas rejected. You're learning humility and resilience. Maybe you have young children and you're in a season of little sleep but lots of prayer. There's something to be gathered from every situation that you go through. You may learn consistency. You may learn discipline. You may learn love, grace, compassion. If we do it right, all of these things are things that we gain when we choose to grow in what we're going through.
