Can it be used to restore relationships and overcome many of the challenges we experience on a daily basis.

How to Wait Well

What does it mean to Wait Well? When you have done everything you know to do, and still, nothing has happened – there is a tendency to question. Did I hear God correctly? Am I doing something wrong? Why others and not me? Is this even the Will of God for my life?

In the book Wait and See, author Wendy Pope shares timeless biblical wisdom on how to prepare for the future, when you experience discouragement and weariness about your present circumstance. Instead of getting distracted with the “object of your wait, you can grow closer to the Person of Your faith” Wendy shares.

Regardless of what you are “waiting on to happen” in your life – a relationship, children, career opportunities, or a better outlook on life, Wendy touches on in her book and in this podcast episode.
