Why is waiting so hard—and what is God doing in that waiting? In this Advent episode of Practicing Catholic, Taylor Kemp and Dr. Scott Hefelfinger explore the virtues of patience and perseverance, why they matter for the Christian life, and how Advent trains us to grow in them. From parenting struggles to workplace challenges to spiritual dryness, they unpack practical, concrete ways to build these virtues with God’s grace. They also answer audience questions on defending the faith with charity and using medals and sacramentals without superstition. A relatable and hope-filled guide for anyone striving to begin again and stay the course.
