À propos de cet audio

Do you ever feel like you’re stuck in the same place — going in circles, facing detours, or walking a longer road than you expected? You’re not alone. In this episode of Curious for Christ, Alexandra explores how God uses those very detours and circles to strengthen your faith and shape you into the person He’s calling you to be, unshakable in your faith in Him. Remember, you belong to Him!

Through the story of the Israelites’ wilderness journey, we discover why the “long way” is actually part of God’s purposeful plan — to grow trust, build perseverance, and deepen your relationship with Him.

You’ll be encouraged to embrace your current season, trust God’s timing, and understand that even what feels like delay is part of your spiritual growth.

What You’ll Hear:

  • Why life sometimes feels like a circle or detour — and how God is still moving in it
  • Biblical insights from the Israelites’ 40 years in the wilderness (Deuteronomy 8:2, Exodus 13:17)
  • How detours and delays develop perseverance and faith (Romans 5:3–4)
  • Encouragement to trust God when progress feels slow or invisible (Philippians 1:6)
  • A prayer to renew your courage and hope in God’s plan

Key Scriptures:

Deuteronomy 8:2“Remember how the Lord your God led you all the way in the wilderness these forty years, to humble and test you in order to know what was in your heart…”


Exodus 13:17“God did not lead them on the road through the Philistine country, though that was shorter… God said, ‘If they face war, they might change their minds and return to Egypt.’”


Romans 5:3–4“Suffering produces perseverance; perseverance, character; and character, hope.”


Philippians 1:6“He who began a good work in you will carry it on to completion until the day of Christ Jesus.”
