As vaccine numbers rise and mask recommendations shift, most of us are back to spending a bit more time out of the house. Combine that with the hint of summer sneaking into the air and you’ve got a recipe for wanderlust.

Your coming months may be filled with adventure and excitement: travel that’s finally possible again, reconnecting with family members, or simply the joy of going to dinner with friends. Whatever your summer entails, you may find that stories of patience, prayer, and purpose speak straight to your heart in this unfolding season.

Need a reminder of God’s faithfulness in our waiting? On the latest episode of Steadfast, Sandra McCracken hosts a conversation about “Patience in the World of Immediate Gratification.”

Overwhelmed by problems that seem to have no answer? Try the latest Quick to Listen podcast episode entitled “Is Praying for Peace in the Middle East Enough?”

Unsure what it looks like for you to participate in the mission of God right now? Tune in to “John Stott, and the Mission of God’s People, with Dr. Christopher Wright” on the Transforming Discipleship podcast.

Whether you’re taking to the skies or crossing your fingers for just an hour of fun before August, pop in an earbud. We hope these stories and conversations serve as welcome companions, whatever your coming months may bring.
