Sacred Ground gathers seven testimonies from ordinary people who found God waiting in the places they least expected: a marriage strained by the hard work of international adoption, a friendship that quietly exposed the shallowness of a comfortable faith, a season of burnout mistaken for faithfulness, and a family learning to trust God through months without a home to call their own. Each chapter shows what happens when we stop searching for God somewhere else and start noticing where He already is.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eOrdinary Places Become Holy Ground: \u003c\/strong\u003e God doesn't wait for a temple but shows up in the ordinary places.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eDisappointment Can Refine Instead of Break You: \u003c\/strong\u003e Unmet expectations-left unexamined-curdle into resentment, but brought honestly before God, they become the very thing that restores your faith.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eRest Isn't a Reward for Finishing Everything: \u003c\/strong\u003e It's part of how you were made to live, not something you earn after burnout forces your hand.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eHope Doesn't Wait at the Finish Line: \u003c\/strong\u003e It walks with you through the waiting itself, one day of provision at a time.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eWith heartfelt chapters written by \u003cstrong\u003eRita Davis, Susan Marie DiParisi, Julie Dominguez, D.
