The Slice

Waiting is hard. We do all kinds of things to make it easier—scroll our phones in checkout lines, catch up on podcasts in traffic, zone out to HGTV in waiting rooms. But some seasons of waiting are heavy, and our usual distractions just don’t cut it.

In this week’s episode of The Deep Dish, we explore how God shapes us through waiting and how delays expose our expectations and deepen our hope. Because in God’s hands, waiting isn’t wasted.
