We’re acknowledging that the world is not the way it’s supposed to be in the now and the not yet.In our grief, we often shut God and others out. But prayers of lament and the tool of process journaling invite God into the messy and the hard so He can bring the comfort and change we so desperately need.God is not offended by our grief or our anger. He knows our words and our thoughts before we even express them in prayer. He understands our weaknesses, and as we honestly approach God through prayers of lament, we can find hope in His promises.Resources:Lament and Process Journal InstructionsConversational Counseling Season 5 on “Suffering”Free Known Ministries Lament ClassS5 Ep. 3 / Carol Collier on LamentSeason 11 of Conversational Counseling on “Sacred Access.”To sign up for free visuals and discussion questions for this season, click ⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠here⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠.Our theme music is by ⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠As Isaac⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠.This podcast is made possible by engineer and producer ⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠Shane Selby⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠, executive producer ⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠Meleah Smith⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠, and ⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠generous donors⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠.⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠Known Ministries⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠ is ⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠Alex Kocher⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠ and Brenda Payne.
