Becoming Whole

If You Want Integrity, You Have to Wait

We are in a season of waiting for the arrival of Jesus. And, while we count down the days of Advent by eating chocolate or reading devotions, the anticipation builds. 

In the area of sex and relationships, waiting can lead us to a place where we are really tempted to compromise. 

As a culture, we are too short-sighted and impatient. Where are your sights set this season? Experiencing Advent side by side means we can wait with each other. 

There’s community and power and beauty when we share in each other’s suffering.

Listen in as we learn to wait together.

Highlights:

The church of Jesus is suffering on a big scale. We struggle with waiting.

When it comes to sexual integrity, relational wholeness, health in our sense of identity; I believe that one of the reasons the church is really faltering in the West is because we don’t know how to wait.

In the area of sex and relationships, waiting can be very hard work and become an area where we are really tempted to compromise.

Homework:

Some questions to put before God this season: Where are you placing your desires?  Where are you placing the “finish line”? What are you waiting for God to provide for you?
