About this episode

This episode discusses trusting Jesus when life feels slow and emphasizes that God's work is still present even when it seems inactive.

Have you ever felt like God’s work was moving too slowly? You pray, wait, serve, try to grow, and still wonder why things are not changing faster. In Matthew 11:1-11, John the Baptist is in prison, asking one of the most honest questions in Scripture: “Are you the one who is to come, or should we expect someone else?” This message, “When God’s Work Feels Slow,” reminds us that slow does not mean absent, hidden does not mean inactive, and unfinished does not mean unseen. Jesus may not always give us the explanation we want, but He gives us enough evidence to keep trusting Him. Formation Challenge: Name the slow place. Notice one kingdom sign. Take one faithful step. #WhenGodFeelsSlow #TrustJesus #Matthew11 #ChristianSermon #FaithInTheWaiting #GodIsStillWorking #JesusChrist #ChurchOfChrist #SeniorSunday #ChristianEncouragement #BibleTeaching #SermonClip #FaithOverFear #SpiritualGrowth #KingdomOfGod
