Those seemingly insignificant waiting moments throughout your day might be more valuable than you realize.

This episode is an invitation to reclaim those small 3-minute pockets of time that we so often surrender to our screens – the doctor's waiting room, the grocery checkout line, the school pickup lane, the moments before a meeting starts.

If you've ever caught yourself mindlessly reaching for your phone the second you have a moment to breathe, this conversation is for you.

We'll explore how these brief waiting periods aren't just empty transitions but meaningful opportunities woven into the fabric of your life by a God who doesn't waste a single second. You'll walk away with practical ways to redeem these moments without shame, guilt, or rigid rules.

What You'll Learn in This Episode:

Why your automatic response to waiting might be robbing you of meaningful moments
What "redeeming the time" really means from a biblical perspective
How small moments of presence add up to approximately four entire days of your life each year
The neuroscience behind habit interruption and creating new choices
5 simple practices to transform waiting moments into spiritually grounding experiences
Why these "thin places" of waiting might actually be divine invitations to deeper awareness

Whether you're feeling digitally drained or simply wanting to bring more intention to your day, this episode will help you transform those small gaps of time into opportunities for presence, peace, and purpose.
