Have you ever walked through a spiritually dry season and wondered where God was and why He felt so far away? Maybe the better question is, “Who hasn’t?” The wilderness seasons can be characterized by spiritual dryness, frustration, and the feeling that God has “turned up the heat,” per say. As frustrating as these seasons are, their purpose is only ever for our development and preparation.
Today’s guest on the iDisciple podcast, John Bevere, helps us uncover the purpose, strength, and sacred beauty in seasons where nothing feels sacred OR beautiful. In his conversation with David about his latest book, “God, Where are You?!” he tells pieces of his wilderness stories that both challenge and encourage listeners who find themselves in their own wilderness season.
