We avoid pain and grief as much as possible. When faced with someone else’s grief, we avoid or offer platitudes. But the book of Lamentations invites us to sit with grief, to enter into the prophetic process of Lament. In this series, we’ll explore how to grieve and how to be a friend to the grieving.
Ultimately, we’ll see how the process of lament invites us to be agents of healing in the larger world.

Hospitality
America's increasing suspicion can be tied to a lack of "third spaces" - spaces that blur the lines between public and private. But Christians are called to be radically hospitable. How can we create third spaces where we can embody God's radical love for everyone?
From Series: "System Failure"
We often treat sin as personal moral failings but Sin has an institutional component too. What institutions in our culture form us to be sinful? And how can the Church act as a counter-institution that forms us to be holy?
