EXPAND YOUR DEFINITION OF
WORSHIP
Have you ever thought God didn't want to hear your prayers of complaint? Did you know it
is okay to voice your concerns, your heartache - even your disappointment? The Bible gives
hundreds of examples of godly men and women who cried out to Him. And God was moved by
their tears.
On your own or with a group, study the lost language of lament. Go even deeper into the
eye-opening message of A Sacred Sorrow and discover what has been missing in your
prayers and worship.
With this Bible study, you and your small group can fully grasp the importance of voicing
your heart's joys and pains to the Father. Job, David, Jeremiah, and Jesus Himself understood the
necessity of lament. Learn why it is still a vital part of the worship experience.
Each of the sections listed in the following table of contents covers a week of devotionals
with scripture references linked to each devotional, to lead you in your experience of searching
