What if the waiting is the becoming with Angie Thompson

  • Summary

  • What if the waiting is the becoming? This week, I sit down with my lifelong friend Angie Thompson for a talk about grief, growth, faith, and friendship. Angie shares the story of losing her beloved partner, leaving a high-powered career, and stepping into something completely new…owning a media company all guided by grace and the wisdom found in When the Heart Waits by Sue Monk Kidd.We also talk about the power of long-standing friendships, the beauty of taking the “long way,” and the discipline of morning reflection. This is a heart talk about walking through pain with purpose and embracing your next chapter, no matter your age.Angie reminds us: if you can’t be still and wait, you can’t become what God created you to be.
