Drew Mathews brought a powerful message from 1 Peter 1:3–7 about “The True Test.” 
He reminded students that trials are not pointless. God can use difficult seasons to grow, strengthen, and refine our faith. Drew shared honestly from his own story about injuries, setbacks, loss, and disappointment, while pointing students back to the hope we have in Jesus.
One of the biggest takeaways from the message was this:
Faith that is tested becomes faith that is strengthened.
