Patience: Trusting God's Timing Part 2
In this episode, we celebrate the launch of Patience: Trusting God's Timing in Every Season, a collaborative book featuring the voices and faith journeys of nine women from across the country. Host Leilani sits down with three of the contributing authors Marilynn Lester, Cathy Smith, and Lisa Recor to discuss what stirred them to write about patience, what the writing process revealed about their own relationship with God, the beauty of collaborating with other authors, and their encouragement for anyone in a season of waiting. The book is available now on major platforms, including Amazon.
