Psalm 13- What Do I Do With My Sadness?

The message from Friday night of the 2025 Southeastern Fall Conference at Camp Greystone, where we looked at the Gospel in the Psalms. Our speaker for the weekend was Rev. Thomas Kuhn, Assistant Pastor at Resurrection Presbyterian Church in Greenville, SC. Here's his first message, on Psalm 13. Session 1 Discussion Questions - Psalm 13:1. How do you deal with sadness? Do you tend to express it, numb it, or avoid talking about it? Why?2. Oftentimes our sadness is the result of a stifled “how long?”. Are there any areas in your life where you are avoiding crying out “how long”?3. This Psalm invites us to name our sadness, cry out to God, and move forward in trust. Which of these three feels most natural for you? Which feels most difficult?4. In Jesus we see God “scraped and torn.” How does knowing Jesus as the man of sorrows enable us to have hope in our sadness?
