Grief and Faith. Even Jesus Cried from the Bumper Sticker Theology Series

Join us as we explore the biblical stories of Job and Lazarus, shedding light on their faith and resilience amidst great tragedy. Job's profound losses and his response to them are deeply touching, while the faith of Mary and Martha, even as they grieve for their brother Lazarus, will inspire you. Listen in as we discuss Jesus' emotional response as he weeps at the tomb of Lazarus, underlining the empathetic heart of God towards human pain. As we move forward, we further explore Mary and Martha's faith, discussing their reaction to Jesus' delayed arrival and their steadfast belief that God would answer their prayers. Unravel the mystery of why, in times of grief and doubt, it is important to turn to God rather than away from Him. We discuss the moving moment of Jesus weeping at Lazarus's death and how these tears are a reflection of God's own sorrow when we suffer. Finally, find solace in Psalms 34:18, a testament to the comforting closeness of God to the brokenhearted. Don't miss this poignant discussion about the power of faith and hope in times of grief.Kristine Adams
