A Sufferer's Guide to God: Lament
Episode 785
Monday, 2 February, 2026

Where were you when the world broke? That moment you got the call. The text. The diagnosis. The news that changed everything. In this teaching, Jon walks through Job 1 and introduces a powerful, often forgotten biblical practice called lament — crying out in grief while still holding on to God. Because the promise of faith was never that we would avoid suffering, but that we would have help walking through it. If you’ve ever felt the tension between being honest about your pain and trying to stay faithful, this episode offers language for both. You can be heartbroken and hopeful at the same time. Scripture: Job 1:20–22
