Here’s a quote from author and theologian Anthony Padovano that has helped me through personal and professional turbulence. It’s copied here from a poster I saw.
“There is a great deal of difference between loss, change, and transformation.
A loss is a step backward; a change is an opportunity; a transformation is a step forward.
The common denominator of these three realities is the fact that one must give up something.
It is possible for both loss and change to lead to transformation, but it is not possible for transformation to occur unless something is lost and something is changed."
The Lifelong Learning Office of Louisville Presbyterian Theological Seminary publishes this blog to create and nurture a community of lifelong learners for leadership that transforms the church and the world, to invite members of that community to participate in the Lifelong Learning Programs sponsored by LPTS, to encourage formation of smaller learning communities and study groups, and to alert members to learning experiences available at other venues.
