In this episode, Luke shares with us his thoughts on the importance of lament in the midst of feeling the loss and uncertainty the COVID pandemic has brought us. One-third of the Psalms are laments. Why is it essential for us to lament? How do we lament in a way that turns us toward God? Luke shares with us the four elements of a biblical lament:
1. Address to God - "Hey God, please help!"
2. Complaint to God - "This is what hurts."
3. Petition to God - "Here's how I'd like you to help me in specific ways."
4. Praise to God - Giving thanks and adoration to God.
