Purpose in Progress: Finding Faith When Growth Feels Slow

Have you ever felt like you’re doing everything right, but nothing seems to be moving forward? Like you’re putting in the effort, saying the prayers, showing up day after day — and still not seeing the results you hoped for?

You’re not alone.

In this episode of The Lifeline Morning Show, Steven gets real about those seasons of life where progress feels painfully slow — when your purpose seems hidden behind everyday routines, and it’s easy to wonder if God’s even paying attention.

Today’s theme, “Purpose in Progress,” reminds us that growth doesn’t always happen in big leaps — sometimes it’s built one small, steady step at a time. With wisdom from Scripture and a few unforgettable stories, Steven shares how faith takes root not in the moments we see change, but in the moments we choose to keep believing.

💡 It does not matter how slowly you go as long as you do not stop.”
And that’s exactly what this episode is all about — the grace to keep going, even when life feels like it’s standing still.

Through the story of Noah Galloway, a U.S. veteran who found purpose again one small step at a time, Steven paints a powerful picture of perseverance and faith in action. From lacing up running shoes to taking that first uncertain stride, it’s proof that sometimes the most ordinary decisions can lead to the most extraordinary breakthroughs.

You’ll hear real encouragement for real life — honest conversations about frustration, waiting, and hope. This isn’t about having all the answers; it’s about trusting that God’s still working, even when we can’t see it.

✨ You’ll walk away reminded that:

• Small steps still count — because God multiplies consistency into calling.

• Progress isn’t about speed; it’s about faithfulness.

• You’re not behind — you’re being built.

• And even when you can’t see movement, you can trust the momentum God’s creating beneath the surface.

So if you’ve ever found yourself wondering, “Am I really making a difference?” or “Why does everything feel so slow?” — this episode is your reminder that the journey still matters. God isn’t finished with your story. He’s shaping you in the silence, strengthening you through the steps, and preparing you for what’s next.

Because purpose isn’t found in the finish line — it’s discovered in the progress.

🎧 Tune in now and be encouraged to keep showing up, keep believing, and keep moving forward in faith — even when it feels slow.
