#561 How to Talk to God When You’re Hurting

What do you do when you’re hurting—but don’t know what to say to God? In this episode of Walking with Conviction in an Anxious Age, we continue our series on suffering by exploring one of the most overlooked — but deeply biblical — responses to pain: lament. Many people have been taught that strong faith means staying quiet, avoiding questions, or pushing through suffering without expressing it. But Scripture shows us something very different. Looking at Job, the Psalms, and Lamentations, we see that God invites us to bring our pain to Him, speak honestly, and ask bold questions, even when we don’t understand what He is doing. In this episode, we explore: What lament is and why it matters How to talk to God when you’re hurting Why asking questions is not a lack of faith How to trust God without pretending everything is okay How to support others who are struggling If you’ve ever felt like you couldn’t be honest with God or didn’t know how, this episode will help you take a step toward a deeper, more genuine faith.
