The Wait by Devon Franklin & Meagan Good Book Summary

In this New York Times bestseller, Hollywood power couple DeVon Franklin and Meagan Good candidly share their courtship and marriage, and the key to their success—waiting.

President/CEO of Franklin Entertainment and former Sony Pictures executive DeVon Franklin and award-winning actress Meagan Good have learned firsthand that some people must wait patiently for “the one” to come into their lives. They spent years crossing paths but it wasn’t until they were thrown together while working on the film Jumping the Broom that their storybook romance began.

Faced with starting a new relationship and wanting to avoid potentially devastating pitfalls, DeVon and Meagan chose to do something almost unheard of in today’s society—abstain from sex until they were married.

DeVon and Meagan share the life-changing message that waiting—rather than rushing a relationship—can help you find the person you’re meant to be with. The Wait is filled with candid his-and-hers accounts of the most important moments of their relationship and practical advice on how waiting for everything—from dating to sex—can transform relationships, allowing you to find a deep connection based on patience, trust, and faith.

Worth The Wait. This book is truly more than about sex, but you’ll get into all of that once you read it. Although I’ve had the book for almost two years, I’m just now willing to accept and read it for all it has to offer and it was well worth The Wait.

Insightful. It took me months to finish this book because I wasn’t as serious about my Wait as I am now. I just want to personally thank you both for your obedience. It has most certainly helped me in areas I didn’t know I was lacking. To see a young black couple profess the name of Jesus Christ in Hollywood AND mean it....truly blessed me.

Amazing!. This book was every bit of amazing! I started my celibacy journey and reading “ The Wait “ has taught me so much more. Thanks guys!

Encouraging!. Gives deeper insight of celibacy beyond relationships.Great example that waiting can be accomplished through faith.Love this book and would definitely recommend this to anyone considering celibacy.

Wow!!!. Such a renewed and on time perspective. Absolutely enjoyed this! Thank you two for obeying God and allowing Him to bless others in this way.

The wait. This book really helped me to keep my head above water while i was waiting on my husband and being celibate and just altogether being obedient to God will get you everything you need exceedingly abundantly ‼️

Theresa in Philly. This is a very good book to help you work on yourself so that you get in line with Gods plans for your life, and then he can begin to work on you and your future husband.That way when he bring you two together you can both began your journey together in Christ with each other.

This couple is exploiting their marriage. Not a book for those already committed to a celibate life...it's for those who have are driven by sex to date and be in sexual relationships...total generalization...thy think everyone needs a lesson on celibacy...NOT!!! Some of us don't need this lesson! Meagan and DeVon are just trying to stay relevant and obtain the title of the perfect Hollywood and Christian couple which I have to say is a novelty these days, so they tapped into niche! This couple is a cliche and a gimmick trying to stay relevant and they have exploited their dating and marriage to sell a message of celibacy and in the process have presented themselves as the "perfect couple" without actually having to say they are, which they would say if they could get away with it!

The best book ever!!!. A beautiful story that will help you in your daily life. Putting God first is always top priority and that’s what you’ll experience throughout this book. I will read a second time! One of the best books I’ve ever read. Thank you for this lovely story Meagan & DeVon.

Great book!. When I initially heard about the book, I was immediately interested. It took me a while before I actually purchased and read the book though. I recently decided that I wanted to get back into reading and make it a permanent part of my lifestyle and regimen. This was a great start. I don't doubt that one would find a relatable area in their lives while reading this book. I appreciated the honesty and encouragement it provided. I don't doubt that this book will be a point of reference even if/when God sends me the person he has for me. I hope the same for anyone who reads it. ❤️

Must-Read. For anyone - must read. Ground-breaking principles, advice, and encouragement. Makes you feel like you've got a friend in the authors. So well-written. Hope they write more in the future! They would make a killer marriage book!

Spiritually & Realistically Profound. I started a book club with some young women at my church to read this book and it have been earthshaking to say the least for our lives! As for me it has allowed me to face my flaws as a woman growing in Christ and in my romantic relationships!! I can truly say THE WAIT has given me assurance that my God ordained marriage is on the Horizon because of my Faith in God's Will for my life! I'm blessed that God put it on The Franklin's hearts to write about their journey with honesty and transparency !! Thanks for a quick, and honest book !!! May God continue to bless your Union!!!

Love it!. I love this book and how practical it is. It really breaks "The Wait" down well. From why you should wait, what it looks like to wait, and how to get through it. Love the stories and examples they gave. Super helpful for anyone who is looking to honor God in their relationships and future marriage.

Amazing!!!!!!. This book gives advice on how to date. The questions to ask potential partners. Fears of dating and how to overcome. Their testimony gives me to power to go out and date successfully to give God glory. Must read!!!!

Great Read, Expecting a Part II. This book was very informative about how they went through their celibacy journey. I wish they went more in depth about having an accountability partner and telling the right people about your journey. I learned that some people are not going to be receptive so there is no sense in saying anything. The book definitely touched on the trials an tribulations that they encountered which made it easy to relate to.

Fantastic Read!. This book is truly incredible. It will make you question your own truth and push you towards a better future. Definitely a gift from God! If I could I'd give it 6/5 stars!!

I'm ready. I wanted to read this book a little while ago but I was not ready to pick it up just yet. Last week God told me it was time and reminded me of this book. I cannot explain how amazing this book is. It has touched many parts of my life and I am happy to have started my journey - the wait- with this book.

Amazing!. Just finished reading this book, & I must say it was so deep, so real, so motivational. I needed this book 4yrs ago. But now that I have it, I can't wait to apply these principles into my life! Always been ready for change, but of course their was fear... not anymore!!

The Wait. It was God sent book for all us ladies and gentlemen ! Thank you Mr. Franklin and Mrs. Franklin 🙏🏿🙏🏾🙏🏼🙏🕯🌍❤️

Amazing and powerful book. This book change my life!!!

"The Wait": Realistic Fantastic Easy Read!!!. The Wait is a realistic thorough detailed depiction of pitfalls when one follows the flesh, oppose to when one allows God's pure blessings to overflow in their lives by wanting NOT just choosing to follow 'scripture'. - IAmMsPrissy™ from Culver City, CA

Amazing!. Transparent, and certainly a book that has helped me with my journey. Perfect for note taking as well. I recommend this book to anyone. A great read!

The Wait. This book was absolutely amazing! I advise every Man and a Woman to read this book. It not only helps you if your practicing celibacy, but it help you find yourself ! Sometimes we get lost in who we are. We're so stuck in our ways and think it's right but in reality it's not and "The Wait" give us that reminder.

Great book!. I absolutely loved this book. I am actually reading it for a second time and decided to practice Celibacy!

The Wait. Most definitely recommended!

Easy read. This book is very easy to read. It's Bible based and appropriate for all individuals pursing relationships. It's very practical and straightforward regarding many topics that are not spoken of often.

LIFE. Eye opener, beautiful inspirational, must read.

Whatcha waiting for. This is a life changing concept that can be applied across many areas of ones life.

A Great Read. This book gave me so much insight. Before reading this book, it had only been a week or so since I declared celibacy. Now I am more clear and confident as to why I’m choosing the Wait. Thank you Megan and Devon for sharing your experience and being so open!

Inspiring!!!!. This book is a great read if you have ever had any struggles with relationships. It truly helps you to put things in perspective and take accountability for some of your actions; that caused ruining of yourself and the relationships around you!

Worth The Wait!. This book found its way into my life at the perfect time. I just turned 31 and I was ready to make some permanent changes in my life. While doing some research on literature about the journey of celibacy, I came across this gem and I honestly wish I would have read it much sooner in my life. Devon Franklin and Meagan Good’s story was both educational and entertaining. I highly recommend this to any soul that is interested in personal development and open to a fresh perspective on dating and marriage that is told from a spiritual perspective.

Wow. The things we don't say to ourselves. Everything we need to hear. Great read for the READY person ... that's what I honestly believe. Everything hit home with me and I receive it !!

God sent. So grateful that God allowed this couple to go through and live a life that is and has completely blessing me and others in guidance, understanding and most especially true love. Thanks for doing so well in ensuring that every detail is covered for "The Wait" and looking forward to more xoxo. God bless

Excellent!. I could hardly put it down. A great read and truly relatable to a young black millennial woman like me. I felt completely moved. Not only did reading this allow me to consider celibacy in a completely new way, but it also helped me reconnect with God in a way that I hadn't before.

Thanks y'all 😍. I'm a single mother & like many, I didn't set out to live this way. I truly wanted a family, I was engaged to my child's father but I prayed and asked God to show me if this was my husband & he proved he wasn't. Needless to say, it was after I conceived our beautiful baby. I love my daughter & I wouldn't trade her for anything in this world. I'm committed to doing the wait because I want to be blessed in my life more than ever. I have so much baggage to clean up and so many past mistakes to get over & I know that by doing the wait, I'll be able to focus on my true self! Thanks so much for this book!! It's been a blessing to me!!

Amazing. This book was very influential, heartfelt and most importantly relatable. As oppose to demanding or making one feel like sinners; they explained their journey of how it was not easy and things they both dealt with in the past. This book was also an eye opener and a blessing as I navigate my relationship. This God-fearing couple never wavered and we need more examples of that in our generation as oppose to the Instagram posting pics with your partner then waiting for the masses to tell us of what “relationship goals” are. God is relationship goals first and thank you to these two for allowing Him to use you.

Read it twice. I read the book twice at different seasons in my life . A lot of great info! Definitely valuable if you’re planning to wait till marriage or to embrace singleness !

Anazing!!!. This is a topic that I have struggled with for many years. I have struggled with the thought of becoming celibate. I've gone back-and-forth and have fallen to the pressures of Society. This book definitely helped me to find the proper focus I need to become successful in my relationship with God, life, and love.

Great. I really appreciate you guys for making a great book for people like myself trying to figure things out in life. This book has opened my eyes ,my mind ,an my heart...Thank You so much

Astronomical!. This book is amazing. You gotta read it. Especially college students.

Nice. great book!

Beautiful. Everything I needed for my new journey of celibacy!

Game Changer. This books feels like you've stepped into a non-judgemental conversation with friends that are excited to share their journey to love. I'm So inspired and spoke to my heart. It's a must read. Even IF you can't imagine being celibate, they share great nuggets that make this book good for all.

Mediocre. Book was mediocre, kind of repetitive wasn’t much entertaining.

The Wait. A great book!! This was my conformation. To God be the glory.

A MUST READ!. This book is great! Before this summer, I use to be a person that hated to read but I read this book. It not only talks about celibacy, it is wayyyyy more! You have to read this book! It changes your perspective on things. For me, it has been life changing and I'm truly ready to stick with my journey of The Wait!

Inspiring !. Going through two hard break ups back to back, not knowing how to deal with this heartbreak until I read The Wait! I feel so inspired that I can become a better me, and that there IS someone out there for me. It’s starts with yourself and what you’re attracting, The Wait is definitely eye opening and REAL!

BEST BOOK!. The Wait is not only an encouraging and honest testament it’s a revolutionary mark for generations to come. This book provides the proper guidance and structure to help you on the journey of discovering God’s design for relationships & love.It’s simply a book that doesn’t judge but gently corrects! Here for it! ❤️

The Wait. This book was amazing and the most important lesson i learned was that although there is a time for waiting and being with God, faith without works is dead. We have to play our part too and not just stay at home expecting for Mr/Mrs right to walk into our lives but we must Choose wisely. Great read!

Eye Opening. This book goes beyond discussing celibacy and taught me so many beneficial things that I walked away with after reading. Buy this book!!
