Oscar Wilde once wrote, "?How else but through a broken heart can Lord Christ enter in?"  Even though Christians are unapologetically "Easter People" who are charged with sharing the Good News of resurrection with the world, we are also called not just to rejoice with those who rejoice, but to "weep with those who weep," and to be honest in our prayer and worship lives... which means being able to grieve, to lament, and even to bring angry prayers to God when we feel godforsaken.  In this concluding episode of our Worship Whys series, pastors Erica and Steve explore lament as a gift--even if it's a gift we don't often want to open--and to see the beauty of being invited into a relationship with the living God that can take our angriest words and our most brokenhearted moments.  Join in the conversation as we seek to reclaim this important dimension of Christian worship.
