Message: “Surrender Is Worth the Wait” from Marshall Brown

We live in a world that expects everything now. Faster shipping, instant answers, immediate results—we hate to wait. But beneath our impatience is often a desire for control. What if God is calling us to let go of that control and trust His timing instead?

From Series: "Worth the Wait"

In a culture built around convenience, same-day delivery, and instant communication, waiting has become something we struggle to embrace. We want immediate answers, immediate healing, and immediate fulfillment—but God often works on a different timeline. Throughout Scripture, God’s people experienced seasons of waiting: waiting for Him to answer, waiting for Him to rescue, and waiting for Him to fulfill His promises. Join us for the next few weeks at Flagstone as we explore the purpose of God-given seasons of waiting and discover that when we trust His timing, the wait is always worth it.
