15. Finding Delight in the Ordinary: Holding Joy and Disappointment Together with Amy Hancock


Listen Later

In this week’s episode of Not Just Waiting, Reanna sits down with writer, mentor, and encourager Amy Hancock to talk about what it really means to fight defeat with delight. Amy shares how she discovered her spiritual gifts, learned to find meaning in the everyday, and embraced “the obedient pause” when God asked her to step back from one-on-one coaching. Together, they talk about rest, creativity, calling, and how to hold both joy and disappointment in the same hand.

If you’ve ever felt like your life doesn’t look as “big” or “beautiful” as someone else’s online, this episode will remind you: God’s presence is just as real in the ordinary.

  • The beauty of finding delight in small, everyday moments

  • How to use your gifts right where you are

  • Why waiting seasons are still meaningful

  • What “active waiting” looks like when life feels slow

  • Learning to hold both delight and disappointment
