Lament

Messages, a feelings wheel, books and songs from our Lament series on bringing grief and pain honestly to God.

Lament is the space between pain and praise.

Lament is the space between pain and praise.

We want our lives, especially the Christian parts, to be shiny and happy. But life doesn’t work that way, and lament doesn’t back down from pain, suffering or impossible situations.

In this series we walk through the book of Lamentations, a biblical way to bring our struggles to God. Together we move from pain and pleas for mercy to praise and a deeper trust in His promises.

“The steadfast love of the Lord never ceases; his mercies never come to an end; they are new every morning.” Lamentations 3:22–23
