Do you ever feel like your present moment is so far from where you really long to be? Do you ever struggle with embracing yourself right now because you are so focused on the future?

Too often, we feel disappointed with our “right now”—our life circumstances, our relationships, our lack of progress towards our dreams and goals, our daily grind. We want to do so many things—good, godly things—but our situations don’t allow us to step into them.

In Now and Not Yet, bestselling author and artist Ruth Chou Simons has a powerful message for you when you’re restless in your current season of life and just waiting—waiting to get beyond the pain, waiting for God to show up, waiting to get to tomorrow—she reminds you that it’s okay to not like the right now we’ve been given, but we don’t have to like it to lean in.

This summer, the world will gather to witness a historic moment at the World Cup 2026 — the first ever hosted by three nations, with 48 teams, 16 cities, and 104 matches. But what if the greater story unfolding is not on the field, but the Gospel advancing across the United States, Mexico, and Canada? For the last 19 years, Time to Revive has stewarded a call to see every nation ready for Christ’s return. As the 16 cities prepare to welcome millions, there is a divine opportunity to empower the Church not just to watch history, but to make it—so that when the world comes to us, they encounter Jesus. Laborers are needed to engage the harvest with the Gospel.
