What Are We Waiting On? – When God Feels Silent
About this episode
In today’s episode of Unrelated Sisters: Truth & Grace Conversation, we explore the 400 years of silence between the Old and New Testaments—a time when God’s people were asking, “Where are You?” But what if God wasn’t absent—just preparing? Join Shannon and Deb as they discuss how God used that seemingly silent time to build roads, unite languages, and prepare the world for Jesus. We connect this biblical truth to our modern-day waiting seasons, reminding ourselves that silence doesn’t mean stillness—and preparation always precedes purpose.
If you’ve ever asked, “God, are You even listening?” — this episode is for you.
Galatians 4:4:
“But when the set time had fully come, God sent his Son…”
Prayer:
“Father, in the silence, help us trust Your sovereignty.
When we can’t hear You, remind us You are still working.
Show us our hearts. Teach us to wait with faith.
We believe You’re building something beautiful in the quiet.
We believe You’re not late—You’re right on time.
In Jesus’ name, Amen.”
Casting Crowns "Here my Heart"
“Jesus, show me my heart. Show me where I am. Show me truth about myself so I can follow You.”
