Grief

Grief can be caused by many things: the end of a marriage or a relationship, the death of a loved one, miscarriage, financial instability, the loss of a job, the loss of health, and more. Though we may try to manage and control the process, grief has its own timetable and can’t be forced or hurried. In the story of Jesus raising Lazarus from the dead in John chapter 11, Jesus didn’t scorn Mary and Martha for their grief but addressed the tangle of emotions and thinking in a beautiful way. Listen here to our interactive teaching on this story, exploring how Jesus meets us in our grief, and how we can meet others in their grief.
