IVP Academic, 2024
By Mark Vroegop
WHO: Mark Vroegop, lead pastor of College Park Church in Indianapolis.
HE SAYS: “I want you to see waiting as more than a delay.”
THE BIG IDEA: Readers will learn that waiting on God and not trying to be in control everything can lead to loving the waiting because it prompts wisdom from God.
THE PROGRESSION: The author explores what it means to wait on God through six characteristics, one detailed in each of the book’s six chapters: Waiting is hard, common, biblical, slow, a choice and communal.
“I’m starting to embrace my vulnerability as an opportunity for deeper spiritual growth, to focus on who God is rather than what I don’t know.”
