How does delayed gratification fit into the Christian life? While culture tells us to hustle for instant results, God often says, “Hold on.” In this episode, we'll explore the overlooked process of waiting, trusting, and growing—highlighting how God develops his best work over time, not overnight.

About "The Nonmicrowaved Truth":

How fast do you have to have "IT"? Our culture tells us to find a microwave to speed up the process. C.L. Whiteside, a man who sees and hears multiple perspectives through his life of coaching sports, serving in education, and attempting to conform to Christ, searches for the nonmicrowaved truth. C.L. gets that what’s cool and acceptable now, may not be cool and acceptable tomorrow—and most importantly, may not be what’s best.

Before worrying about the end times, let’s take a step back and check the marks we carry right now. What marks are we embracing, and do they glorify God? If you're ready to rethink the signs around you, challenge cultural norms, and refocus on the mark that truly matters, this episode is for you.
