Time and Turn: Making It Make Sense

Just because it’s your time doesn’t mean it’s your turn—yet.

In Time vs. Turn, Dr. Delisa Rodgers offers a compassionate, biblically grounded framework for understanding why some prayers feel answered quickly while others require endurance. Drawing from Scripture and lived experience, she introduces the principle of time versus turn—the difference between being called and being positioned.

This book gently dismantles the lie that waiting equals failure.

Through the lives of Joseph, David, Moses, and others, readers discover that:

• Calling often arrives before readiness
• Watching others go first is not punishment, but formation
• Delay refines discernment, character, and capacity
• God prepares people in hidden places before public release
• There are recognizable signs when time and turn are about to intersect

Waiting seasons are not empty.

They are instructional.

This book speaks to those waiting for healing, restoration, promotion, marriage, or ministry opportunity—and reframes waiting not as stagnation, but as strategic preparation.

God is not withholding your breakthrough.

He is orchestrating it.

And when your time aligns with your turn, nothing will have been wasted—not the prayers, not the tears, not the waiting.

Understanding the difference brings freedom.

And freedom changes how you wait.
