Ep. 8: What To Do While You Wait
from The Purpose & Calling Podcast · host Tereciah V. Smithen-Quintana
What does it actually mean to wait on God — and what are you supposed to do while you're doing it?For a long time I thought waiting meant stopping. So I stopped building. And on the days I couldn't stop, I felt guilty — like my drive to keep moving was working against what God was trying to do in me.Nobody ever explained it to me. So today I'm explaining it to you.In this teaching we're going back to Acts 1 — to ten specific days that most people rush right past — and we're unpacking what the disciples actually did between the Ascension and Pentecost. What Pentecost really was. What the Greek word for "wait" actually means. And what all of it looks like in your real life, on a real day, while you're still building toward something that hasn't fully opened yet.This one is going to give you language for the season you're in.
