THE WAITING
Winter
JOHN MARK COMER
Quiet is a kind of balm for emotional healing. And more: an unlocked, open door to spiritual life.
Chapter five
The Art of Pruning
Pruning in winter is necessary for a lush garden in spring. Are you prepared to leave things behind in this season to flourish in the next? There is an art to waiting—it’s not inactive.
Chapter Six

Chapter seven

Chapter eight
