About this episode

This episode discusses the challenges of waiting on God during times of transition, as illustrated by the story in Exodus 32.

In Exodus 32, the people were hit with a "pause" during transition. Instead of waiting on the Lord, their need for understanding led them to shape something of their own design. In our own times of transition, we can be tempted - in our desire to know "what it looks like"- to rush back to the familiar and lean on what we understand, instead of waiting on the Lord to bring the new. God, in what ways are we leaning on something familiar where you want us to wait on the new You have for us?
