EP 16: Stop Waiting, Start Living with Chris McSwain

You've been believing for the same thing for years. Marriage, a baby, the house, the job. And somewhere in there you started answering "are you seeing anyone?" with a joke, because a joke hurts less than the truth.Chris McSwain is in her early forties, single, and has spent a long time in that exact tension. What she's landed on isn't a pep talk about the right timing. It's a working definition of faith that lets you live all the way in the life you have while still believing for the one you want, and it holds up whether or not the thing ever comes. She gets into why you can't earn your way into being chosen, what purity culture set up in a lot of us that we're still untangling, and the specific way we use our own words to protect ourselves from disappointment — the "I'm fine, I didn't really want it anyway" that quietly costs you the thing you're praying for. This one is for the woman who is genuinely grateful and genuinely tired. Who has a beautiful life and still feels left out.Scripture: Hebrews 11:1 (KJV) — "Now faith is the substance of things hoped for, the evidence of things not seen."
