Honest Lament as Worship

In Episode 4 of Old Paths New Steps, hosts Peter Voorhees, Josh Lott, and Malissa Bertella explore the profound practice of lament and its role in healing and faith. Drawing from the first recorded lament in Genesis to Jesus's expressions of grief, they unpack how lament isn't just about expressing pain—it's about discovering who God truly is in the midst of our suffering. Through personal stories and biblical insights, they examine how God himself models lament, showing it's not a sign of weak faith but a vital path to deeper relationship and healing. The hosts challenge common tendencies to rush past difficult emotions or seek quick fixes, instead advocating for the transformative power of honest expression in community. Whether you're wrestling with pain, questioning God, or supporting others through their struggles, this episode offers wisdom on how lament can become a pathway to authentic faith and lasting healing.
