I spent thirteen days in the Dominican Republic immersed in a culture of slow. The first few days I spent pacing up and down the broken sidewalks wondering when we would get to the "real" work. Soon I realized that the "real" work wasn't what I thought.
The real work of ministry is slow. Results take time. Lasting results require enduring care. Endurance is a slow listen and a long talk.
That doesn't mean. We wait. The activity of a patient ministry is never wasted.
What are you waiting on?
