Episode 180: Take the Long Way Home | When God Leads You Toward What Looks Like a Dead End

Sometimes God takes you the long way home on purpose.When God led the Israelites out of Egypt toward the Promised Land, there was a shorter route.God didn't take it.Instead, He led His people the long way around toward the Red Sea.And from where they were standing, the Red Sea probably looked a whole lot more like a dead end.An army behind them.Water in front of them.No apparent way through.They could have easily wondered, “God, did we go the wrong way?”But they weren't lost.They were being led.And the place that looked like a dead end became the place where God delivered them from the enemy chasing them.In Episode 180 of Summit After the Storm, we connect that story to Kilimanjaro, traveling through Europe, our obsession with taking the fastest route, and those seasons when life seems to be taking much longer than we planned.The long way led to what looked like a dead end.The dead end became a doorway.And the doorway became their deliverance.If your life feels like the long way right now, this episode is for you.Don't confuse a dead end with a wrong turn when God is the One leading you.📖 Summit After the Storm releases in less than two months.
