Waiting For Prayers To Be Answered: What To Do In The Meantime

Are you stuck in a season of waiting? Maybe you’ve been praying for answers about your child, clarity on a big family decision, or healing in an important relationship, but the answers aren’t coming as quickly as you’d hoped.

In this episode, I’m sharing my own current waiting journey and what I’m learning about those frustrating times when our prayers seem to go unanswered. If you’ve ever found yourself checking your phone, refreshing your email, or anxiously waiting for news while trying to keep the rest of family life running smoothly, this episode is for you.

In this episode, you’ll learn:

  • The difference between just passing time and waiting with purpose
  • Simple ways to find joy and purpose in your wait
  • How to recognize when God is answering you in ways you didn’t expect
  • A practical journaling question that brings immediate perspective

Whether you’re waiting for test results, school decisions, or just a breakthrough in a difficult situation, I hope this episode will help you find meaning in the wait.

Cardiac Cowboys

Cardiac Cowboys

The heart was always off-limits to surgeons. Cutting into it spelled instant death for the patient. That is, until a ragtag group of doctors scattered across the Midwest and Texas decided to throw out the rule book. Working in makeshift laboratories and home garages, using medical devices made from scavenged machine parts and beer tubes, these men and women invented the field of open heart surgery. Odds are, someone you know is alive because of them. So why has history left them behind? Presented by Chris Pine, CARDIAC COWBOYS tells the gripping true story behind the birth of heart surgery, and the young, Greatest Generation doctors who made it happen. For years, they competed and feuded, racing to be the first, the best, and the most prolific. Some appeared on the cover of Time Magazine, operated on kings and advised presidents. Others ended up disgraced, penniless, and convicted of felonies. Together, they ignited a revolution in medicine, and changed the world.
