E67: Lamentations A - We're Hoping For
The Bible in 30 Seconds or Less | Old Testament: Major Prophets
Low point: What do you do when your holy city is destroyed? You turn to your artists and your poets. Because it's pretty terrible. It's pretty bad. And it's only the artists and the poets who can give voice to the anguish. Will God remember the pain? Will God remember the pain? Will she? That is the question that the book of Lamentations offers to us. Lamentations asks a question: Will God remember us in our anguish, in our pain? We sure hope so. At least, we hope so. We believe so. We're hoping for.
