Have you ever found yourself in a dark, overwhelming season, wondering if God could hear you? We explore the healing power of lament as a way to express grief, open to God’s presence, and find rest for your soul. Lament isn't about having all the answers; it’s about allowing space for God to meet you where you are.

What to Expect as you Listen:

How lament can deepen your connection with God during times of grief.
Practical steps to process loss through honesty, community, and restorative practices.
Reflection questions to help you engage with lament in your own life and leadership.
