Lament: Being Honest When Life Hurts
Psalm 44

Life can be really hard. And a lot of the time, it isn’t our fault. How do we live a life of worship when life hurts? Biblical Lament, as we will see in Psalm 44, gives us the freedom to be brutally honest, while also pointing us to our only true hope: God’s steadfast love.
