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.

Stranger in a Strange Land

From Series: "Stranger in a Strange Land"

1 Peter tells us that those who follow Jesus are Exiles in this world. We're strangers in a strange land, a people displaced, looking for home. What does that look like for Christians today?
