Responding to strong anger and deep lament (TW) on October 2, 2022 at 9:53 pm

Here’s our sermon from this morning on Psalm 137 and the Book of Lamentations on how we can respond to deep sadness and intense anger. It’s pretty heavy and involves references to violence against children, lynchings, and Residential School deaths. If that’s not something you can handle today, please watch the shorter sermon summery video: https://youtu.be/e7Jz0WJwENs

The first photos are by Mike Riess and the last two are from Pastor Aaron.
