Michael Huston: Lament—A Faithful Complaint to God

While sitting in a class at the theological seminary he attended, Michael Huston was floored when he heard his teacher say these words: "Lament is faithfully complaining to God." The teacher went on to say, "Lament is the way you worship to God from within pain." Huston describes the feeling he felt that day as exhaling a breath he had been holding for a very long time. On this week's episode, he explains why he hopes to help others find that same relief in the concept of lament.

"Lament, in a sense, is the most sacred of offerings. …It's those moments when we are most vulnerable, most exposed, most uncertain, when our legs are the shakiest. We're taking that and we're saying, 'God this is all I have left.'" —Michael Huston
