Most people say they’re waiting on God. But what if God is actually waiting on us?
In this episode of The Culture Series, we dive into Preparation—not as a checklist, but as a posture. Drawing inspiration from the story of Nehemiah’s watchmen, we explore what it means to live with spiritual readiness in a church culture that often drifts toward comfort and sameness.
Preparation is more than planning—it’s becoming the kind of person who’s ready when God moves. We’re not called to sit passively, waiting for signs. We’re called to sharpen our spears on the wall, to lean into transformation, and to resist the slow fade of spiritual survival.
If you’ve ever felt stuck in the same rhythms, or sensed your community was waiting for someone else to go first, this episode is for you.
Let’s stop surviving Sundays and start preparing for something sacred.
