Episode Synopsis

Pastor Dell shared from Lamentations 1:1-22 as part of our Grieving With God series. Grief comes in many forms, from personal loss to shattered dreams, and the depth of pain can often leave us speechless. While our culture encourages quick fixes and emotional suppression, true healing requires honestly facing our grief and bringing it before God. The book of Lamentations demonstrates that God welcomes our raw, unfiltered expressions of pain and sorrow. Rather than avoiding grief through busyness or putting on a brave face, we're called to pour out our hearts honestly, trust God's presence even when He feels distant, and allow others to help bear our burdens.
