Welcome to another episode of Hope For Wives. Today, we are exploring a spiritual practice that has typically been underdeveloped, uncomfortable and quietly avoided in the western world. This spiritual practice is lament. Listen in as we discuss the importance of lament for healing even when in a crisis of faith.
We Will be Discussing:
- Let’s start by defining what lament is?
- How have you experienced lament?
- Why do so many people—especially in faith spaces—struggle to practice lament, and what gets in the way of it feeling “allowed”?
- What makes lament different from simply venting or expressing grief?
- What hope can we leave our listeners?
