Perseverance in Crisis and the Daily Grind

LISTEN TO THE EPISODE

Summary:

In this podcast Cindy and Jenn examine the vital role of steadfastness for disciple-makers pursuing movements. They blend personal testimony and practical counsel, introducing perseverance as essential, countering the misconception that movements are always fast by emphasizing patient, daily obedience amid inevitable suffering and opposition. Together they unpack perseverance in everyday ministry—surrendering timing, methods, and outcomes to God

Key Points From This Episode:

  • There is an opportunity in times of crisis, something God is offering to you
  • Before healing, God wants to deal with your heart.  
  • Embrace the seasons and take time to rest or take a nap – Joy and intimacy are the fruit of surrender in suffering as often is greater fruitfulness
  • God cares more about who he is developing us to be than about what we are producing
  • Key scriptures: Galatians 6:9, Phil. 3:1, 2 Cor 12:7
  • Elizabeth Elliot’s definition of suffering- wanting what you don’t have and having what you don’t want.
  • In the daily grind or boredom it goes back to surrender; of our timeline, of our methods, our outcomes, our need to control, our pride, our desire to produce, and more
  • Dance and worship in the midst of the pain and receive His grace that is sufficient, his joy that is your strength
