Lament and Repent

Joel Trainer · Sun Jan 12, 2025 · Part 1 of 5

A pastor teaching from the stage during a Sunday service at Three Creeks. 32 min

What this one is about

Naomi, crushed by the circumstances of her life, chooses not to hide her pain but to express it. It's a deep, gut-level, indescribably pain she's living through. And yet, in the middle of that, she puts one foot in front of the other and returns all the way back to Bethlehem, symbolizing a repentance and return to God's plan for her life. She laments, and repents, and draws out the kindness of God through these simple, rare acts of faith.
