Hope in the Darkness - "Waiting"

Hope in the Darkness - "Waiting"

Author: Joy! Lutheran Church ( Contemporary Reverent Joy Worship ) March 24, 2019 Duration: 18:02

When we are going through trials, we have asked God our questions,  we have listened for God's response, we have prayed for God to intervene, and then we... WAIT!  As human beings, most of us do a poor job of waiting.  We are anxious and want our answers or action NOW, but God doesn't work on our timetable.  He calls us to wait with faith in the knowledge that He always keeps His promises, and His timing is always right!


Joy!Cast comes from the community at Joy! Lutheran Church, where worship is described as Contemporary Reverent Joy. This podcast explores the intersection of ancient faith and modern life, offering thoughtful conversations and messages grounded in Christian spirituality.

You’ll hear reflections that feel both timeless and immediately applicable, designed to encourage and uplift. Whether you’re firmly rooted in your faith or simply curious, the discussions meet you where you are. The aim is to provide a moment of perspective and peace amidst the noise, focusing on how spiritual principles can transform ordinary experiences. This isn’t about abstract theory; it’s about the real, sometimes messy, journey of living with purpose and joy. Tune in for a sincere and engaging take on what it means to navigate life with a foundation of grace.
