Ep. #167 - Potty Training and the Patience of God

Pete Dill

Potty training is the ultimate test of patience… and not just for your toddler.
The smell, the bribery, the “I don’t have to go” standoffs — and somewhere in the middle of it, I had this realization: This is exactly how God parents us.

In this episode, I share how those messy, frustrating moments in the bathroom taught me something huge about God’s patience, why He doesn’t force our growth, and how He walks with us through the mess until we get it right.

If you’ve ever wondered why God lets you “make a mess” before you figure it out — this one’s for you.
