Loss and Lament (Part 2) Feat. Clint Watkins (EP. 42)

Send us a text

EP. 42 is here!! Loss and Lament (Part 2) feat. Clint Watkins. We continue the conversation with Clint about losing their son Eli and why it's okay to lament and mourn when bad things happen. We also dive into these questions; how does the Church address lament? Is it okay to be angry at God? How do you walk alongside a friend or family member dealing with loss? Eli's story is a powerful one. We pray that Clint, Jillian and Eli's story will continue to be told and that it will help, not only their healing process, but many other individuals and families who hear it. "We sink into this reality that Jesus is going to restore everything. He will reverse the pain. But, where it kind of goes off the rail, I think, is that we think that means that we should be happy when hard things happen. That we have to go through it with smiles. Hope isn't an emotion, hope is a belief. The scriptures allow us so much permission to be sad, confused, hurt and sorrowful and not have to rush to this place of joyful praise."EP. 42 is brought to you by Friends of Angels.
