Ep 18: Why God Makes You Wait (The Truth About the Middle)
Most of us are great at celebrating "New Beginnings" and we love a "Happy Ending." But what do you do when you’re stuck in the middle? When your past season is clearly over, but the future you were promised hasn’t arrived yet?
In the kickoff of our brand-new series, "In Between," Pastor Rodney Thrift and Bryan Evans discuss why the waiting room of life isn’t a waste of time—it’s actually where God does His deepest work. Using the lives of Joseph and the Apostle Paul, we explore why "hidden years" are often the most productive years for our character.
If you feel like your life is currently on hold, this conversation will help you shift from just "getting through it" to actually being formed by it.
In this episode, we cover:
Rescue vs. Recovery: How our community’s transition from the forest fires mirrors our spiritual transitions.
The Hidden Years: Why Joseph spent more time in the "in-between" than he did in the dream.
Adapt, Grow, Become: The three keys to navigating a transition without losing your mind or your faith.
Formation Over Fulfillment: Why God is more interested in who you are becoming than where you are going.
