The Dangerous Mistake People Make While Waiting on God

Feel like your life is stuck… or God is taking too long? Before stepping into his calling, Pastor Geoffrey Graff waited 14 years — working grocery stores, pushing carts, serving difficult leaders — wondering when God would finally open the door. What he learned in that hidden season will change how you see waiting forever. In this powerful Joni Table Talk conversation, discover: • Why waiting is often God’s training ground • The mistake believers make that keeps them stuck • Why passivity is NOT faith • How small obedience leads to big breakthroughs • The real meaning of trusting God And don’t miss the unforgettable question: 👉 You say you trust God… but would you get in the wheelbarrow?
