In 1 Thessalonians 3, the apostle Paul gives us three keys to a resilient faith. These three keys are to understand three callings that God has given to us - a calling to suffer, a calling to love, and a calling to grow. Each of these callings is important for believers to understand and live out. We draw our ultimate motivation to respond to these callings by fixing our eyes on Jesus and growing in our daily dependence upon him.
