Author Rebecca George shares profound insights about her book "You're Not Too Late" which explores finding joy amid unfulfilled longings and learning to trust God's timing in our hurry-up world.

• Rebecca is an author, podcaster, and pastor's wife living near the Smoky Mountains in Tennessee
• Her book "You're Not Too Late" tackles how to handle unfulfilled longings in relationships, career, and other areas
• Most longings fall into two categories: relational (marriage, children, reconciled relationships) and vocational (career, ministry, business ventures)
• True joy comes from abiding in Christ, not from achieving our desires
• We often equate God's goodness with getting what we want, but His faithfulness isn't contingent on our circumstances
• Desires can become idols when they consume our thoughts and prevent us from seeing what God is doing now
• Rebecca and her husband unknowingly prayed at the same bench years before meeting—a beautiful testimony to God's divine timing
• The book includes practical exercises, scripture references, and case studies to help readers process their own waiting seasons
• A free 11-session video series accompanies the book for individual or group study
