A Note From Jenn
As the year comes to a close, the world gets louder. Countdowns. Resolutions. Pressure to decide who you will be before the clock strikes midnight. But here in The Wait Room, we do not rush the turning of the page. We honor it.
New years are not about reinvention. They are about remembrance. Remembering what God has already carried you through and what He is still forming in you.

The Briefing
Dear Wait Room Reader,
Every new year arrives with the same demand. Reinvent yourself. Rename yourself. Decide everything now. But formation does not happen on a deadline. Becoming is not a reset. It is a continuation.
Each new year is not an eraser. It is a point on a line. A moment to notice what has been shaped, what still needs refining, and where God has been more present than we realized. We do not discard the last version of ourselves to earn the next one. We carry forward what was built in the waiting.
There was a time when I thought progress meant movement. But God taught me that refinement often looks like staying. Staying with the questions. Staying with the grief. Staying long enough to let truth settle instead of rushing to escape discomfort. What you endured this year was not a delay. It was a disciplining of the heart.
It is from that understanding that my new book It Builds Character: Remember Who You Are was written.
The book is now available for preorder, and The Wait Room community is receiving the exclusive launch first. This work belongs with those who know that faith is not formed in spectacle, but in obedience.
We will not reinvent ourselves at midnight. We will continue becoming. Attentive. Rooted. Willing. The waiting did not weaken you. It formed you.

And remember before resolutions, return to prayer. Write what God has revealed. Write what still aches. Write what you are trusting Him to refine. Becoming is quieter than we expect, but it is no less powerful.
