In a world that tells us to "just have faith" and smile through the pain, what happens to those of us who are barely holding it together? In this episode, we unpack the raw, radical truth of John 11:35—“Jesus wept.”
This ain’t your typical Sunday school lesson.
We’re talking about how the church—and the culture—silences grief, rage, anxiety, and despair in the name of faith. From the grief of Black folks during ongoing civil unrest, to the LGBTQ+ community facing rejection, to parents of neurodivergent kids fighting for basic support—we name it all.
And we ask the hard questions:
✨ What would Jesus do in times like these?
✨ Why does the church shame emotions Jesus Himself felt?
✨ How do we stop over-spiritualizing pain and start showing up for each other?
It’s time we stop silencing pain and start making space for it. Let’s get real. Let’s get free. Grab ya liquor. Grab ya bud- let's ride baby!
