Leaning into Lament // Week 2

Guy's Q&A Panel 2021

Each year, during our Sexual Integrity Series in youth group, we host a question and answer panel. Students submit questions anonymously or ask questions live, and we put together a 3-4 person panel to answer those questions to the best of their ability. This episode is the recording from our guy's panel from 2021. Our apologies for the audio quality--we know it is not excellent, but we trust it will still be helpful to listen and hear from the biblical wisdom that is offered. Additional questions can be emailed to students@lifeatpathway.com.

Leaning into Lament // Week 2

Did you know there is an entire book of the Bible given over to lament? It is called LAMENTATIONS. The Prophet Jeremiah, the author of the book, is known as the Weeping Prophet.  Things are not going well in this book. Chapter 1 and 2 detail some of the horror and grief Jeremiah sees and experiences and is responding to. However, something transitions in chapter 3. There is something present that was present nowhere else in the book... HOPE.  There is hope in the lament. We invite you into this hope as we remember the character and nature of God. As we lament, may we remember where our hope is found.

Leaning Into Lament // Part 1

As we continue to lean into lament, we spend some time talking about some of the baggage we bring into lament and some strategies to navigate lament well. We invite you to take a listen, and share how you are lamenting. What are you learning? What thoughts are running through your mind or emotions through your heart?

Leaning into Lament // Introduction

Today we introduce the conversation behind lament. We’re going to spend a bit of time here, talking about the unexpected, our worries and concerns, feelings of loss, and the hope and opportunities on the other side of lament. Let’s lean in, work through lament in a healthy way, and come out the other side with more strength and wisdom.
