I Like Nuisance Waiting

Episode Description from the Publisher

This episode looks back at the book of James and explores what the series revealed about its surprising depth and practical wisdom. Jason talks with Andrew, Jordan, and James about patience, waiting, and the tension between faithfully doing what we can while trusting God with what we cannot control. They also unpack why Job can be an example of endurance despite all his complaining, what it means to wait well instead of becoming an “obnoxious waiter,” and how hope in Jesus’ return changes the way Christians experience uncertainty and suffering. The conversation closes with material that didn’t make the sermons, including the Testament of Job and why making vows can be another attempt to take control away from God.Listen to Andrew's messageListen to James' messageListen to Jordan's messageSubscribe to our Messages podcast (Apple Podcasts / Spotify)Visit us online: rivchurch.comFollow us on InstagramSend us feedback: podcast@rivchurch.com—About Riverview ChurchRiverview Church is a multi-venue church based in Lansing, Michigan, where we invite everyone to know and enjoy Jesus as we stumble together in our pursuit to love like Him.
