S03 Ep. 14 – Crying Out a Prayer of Lament

On the Second Sunday of Lent, Fr. Eric reflects on how we’re called to cry out prayers of lamentation to the Lord: sharing our hurts, pains and frustrations with Him to better position ourselves to receive His tender love and mercy. Key examples include the Wedding of Cana (Jn 2:1-11) and the Transfiguration (Mt 17:1-8; Mk 9:2-8; Lk 9:28-36).

Fr. Eric refers also to a talk entitled “Engaging Hope in Seasons of Disappointment” by Melissa Helser. Here is a link to her presentation: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=4a_WBNFN4lM.
