Still Waiting: When God Doesn’t Give You What You Want w/ Ann Swindell

Are you in a place of waiting? Do you feel like there is seemingly no end in sight? In this episode, author and speaker Ann Swindell joins us to discuss what it looks like to wait and trust in Jesus. Ann shares about her own season of waiting and how it has led her back to the truth of God’s Word time and time again. This conversation will challenge you to consider your identity in Christ as it relates to waiting and it will encourage you to reject defining yourself solely by what you lack. If you or someone you know is in a season of waiting, we hope you will join us on this episode.  Sign up for the Daily Grace Podcast Newsletter and receive the free resource "Scripture for Every Season.”   Time Stamps: 00:12 - About Ann Swindell 5:38 - How the story of the bleeding woman teaches us about waiting 9:16 - How waiting affects our identity 12:11 - Why waiting can lead to shame but there is hope in the gospel 15:25 - The gift of waiting 18:14 - About Ann’s new book: The Path to Peace  19:07 - How the story of Ruth teaches us about waiting 24:00 - Why coming to the end of ourselves is a good thing 28:25 - Encouragement to those in seasons of waiting 32:09 - How the gospel has changed Ann   Resources mentioned in this episode:  The Path to Peace Still Waiting Writing with Grace Course   Scripture mentioned in this episode: -Mark 5:25–34 -Colossians 2:13–15 -Genesis 3:8–11 -Hebrews 12:2 -The Book of Ruth -Acts 9 -2 Corinthians 12:9–10   Connect with us: Subscribe to Daily Grace: on iOS, go to our iTunes page and click subscribe.  On Android, click this podcast RSS feed link and choose your podcast app.  If needed, you can copy this link directly into your favorite podcast app (like Stitcher or Overcast).
