235: Drifting, Doubting, Striving with Brett Johnson

What happens to our faith when waiting turns weary?

In this episode, Brett explores how followers of Jesus often cope during the long delay, and how some of those responses, while understandable, can quietly corrode faith. He identifies six “rotten responses” that surface when hope feels deferred.

Each of these reactions reveals our struggle to stay anchored in trust when God seems silent. Yet Brett invites us to a more fruitful posture.

This conversation calls us out of striving and back into surrender, where faith finds its strength again in the waiting.
