Howdy and welcome to the podcast, Coffee With Phil, where we drink good coffee and talk about life and how we can make faith real.
In this episode, Phil reviews a book that has recently impacted him, pointing to the age old biblical discipline of lament, one that has been forgotten by the modern church.
Book title: Dark clouds. Deep Mercy. Author: Mark Vroegop.
Here's a few links for you to check out the book:

Here are the key points I share in this episode:
1. When you're desperate you pray deeper.
2. Lament has four parts: turn, complain, ask, trust.
3. Don't stop praying, push through.
4. Ask Boldly.
5. Pain is a platform for worship.
6. Hope springs from Truth rehearsed.
7. Lament is a surprising personal discovery.
