About this episode

Lynne Brown helps us regain a Biblical perspective on the timing of events in our lives by answering the following questions: How does God relate to time in a way that's different from us?

How can we train our minds and hearts to respond rightly when we're confused about the God's timing or are struggling with impatience?
