Product Description

▼▲

Lament is a long-standing practice in our Judeo-Christian heritage, being a major component of many of the Psalms and Old Testament books. Vroegop challenges us to apply this practice to our time of communal worship, mourning and weeping over the racial harmony that is sadly lacking in our churches, as an initial step toward healing and unity. 224 pages, softcover from Crossway.

Publisher's Description

▼▲

Here is a timely reminder that in the Bible, lament is a prayer that leads to trust, which can be a starting point for the church to “weep with those who weep” (Rom. 12:15). As Vroegop writes: “Reconciliation in the church starts with tears and ends in trust.”
