What do you do when grief becomes cyclical, fear feels overwhelming, and God’s redemption feels distant? This message from Lamentations 3 explores how to grieve honestly with God instead of suffering alone.

Post-modern living can cause us to wonder what is real and what is just a passing fancy. What can we depend on that won't disappoint us? Pastor Jon examines how Lamentations demonstrates the eternal hope we have in God's love, God who loves us despite our brokenness. His love is not contingent on us, but it never fails because of his unstoppable faithfulness. Even in the midst of struggle and doubt, God remains the real, just, unshifting truth upon which we can build our lives.

Every one of us struggles through some really dark times. Pastor Angela works through the next chapter of Lamentations to remind us that God's people sometimes suffer because they walk away from him, but that through Jesus's sacrifice, we have a way back. It reminds us that honest prayer is key to suffering well, taking our pain and discouragement to Jesus, even as we are formed by the wait for his rescue.

Today's world is full of anxiety and hopelessness with seemingly no trustworthy source of comfort. In this new sermon series, Pastor Jon stars our look at Lamentations, one of the most overlooked books of the Bible, unpacking its historical context, and looking at how Christians can express an honest Kingdom form of grief, complaint, and hope in our unchanging, loving God. The first real step Jon counsels us through is the discipline of confession.

He offers a loving and sustaining help that will meet us in all our struggles: the true healing of the gracious gift of Jesus's love and forgiveness.

Love them or hate them, your family is one of the biggest influences on your entire life. In a challenging and important sermon, Pastor Jon takes a careful look at how the expectations of your family - especially around their reputation - can take over your identity, instead of finding your identity in Christ as a member of his kingdom first.
