When waiting brings doubt or worry, remembering God’s character can steady your heart. In this episode, Carrie Lea reminds you how to see God as a Promise Keeper, a Faithful Provider, and a Father who knows what we need. Using Joshua 21:45 and Matthew 6, Carrie explores what scripture says about God’s faithfulness and care and how that truth can help us face uncertainty, silence anxious thoughts, and seek God’s wisdom while we wait.

This episode is a reminder that God sees us, knows our needs, and remains trustworthy—even when we’re still waiting for answers.

If you’re looking for encouragement to trust God’s character in an uncertain season, Carrie encourages you to wait well in peace.

What if the long season you’re in is not punishment at all, but preparation? If you’ve been asking God, “How much longer?” this episode of Conversations with Carrie Lea might be for you.

Carrie Lea gets real about the weariness of waiting and the lie that so often creeps in when life feels delayed: that God is holding your past against you. The book of Joshua is used as a powerful example of what preparation looks like in Scripture. You'll discover how Joshua was shaped alongside Moses and why his obedience and faith had to be developed long before he ever crossed into the Promised Land.

If you need a reminder that God sees you, is working in you, and is using even this season for something greater, this episode will meet you right where you are.

Scripture reference: Exodus 17; 24:13; 33:11 and Joshua 1; 6; 7;9

Using the story of Apostle Paul in Acts 23 and Philippians, Carrie shows how a word from God can still lead to prison, pressure, and unexpected detours—and yet produce impact far bigger than the original dream.
