Leader: Gary Black Room: C122
Leader: Gary Black Room: C122
From: Nov. 4 thru Dec. 16
Optional Book Cost: $10
This study supplies insights in response to the important question, “Who are you?” People define themselves by their role in a family, the work they do, their family history, or their interests and passions. For followers of Jesus, identity is wrapped up in who Jesus is—and His lordship over our lives. Every other facet of life—who we are and what we do—begins and ends with Jesus. We never lose our uniqueness in our various roles, but those roles are transformed by our life of faith—our true, defining identity.

Lament is how we bring our sorrow to God-but it is a neglected dimension of the Christian life for many Christians today. We need to recover the practice of honest spiritual struggle that gives us permission to vocalize our pain and wrestle with our sorrow. Lament avoids trite answers and quick solutions, progressively moving us toward deeper worship and trust.
