Some of the most important progress in life…

happens so slowly you barely notice it.

In Episode 118 of Summit After the Storm, Bart reflects on painful recovery, discipline, persistence, resilience, and why tiny steps still matter when progress feels frustratingly slow.

After nearly severing tendons in his hand while working as a teenage butcher at the Piggly Wiggly, Bart shares the painful recovery process that taught him one of the most important lessons of his life:

Growth rarely happens all at once.

From physical therapy…
to rebuilding strength…
to the slow climb of Kilimanjaro…

this episode explores why consistency matters more than speed during difficult seasons.

This episode explores:
🩹 Injury, recovery, and rebuilding after setbacks
🔥 Why growth often feels painfully slow
⛰️ Kilimanjaro lessons about persistence and small steps
🙏 Faith, endurance, and continuing forward anyway
💭 The emotional frustration of slow progress
📖 “Let us not grow weary…” — Galatians 6
❤️ Why discipline matters more than motivation sometimes
🌎 The life-changing power of continuing to take the next step

Because nobody reaches the summit in giant leaps.

One step still matters.
