When Everything Feels Heavy (Full Sermon)

About this episode

The episode discusses how to hold on to God during heavy seasons of life, using Psalm 42 as a guide for honest prayer amidst darkness.

Some seasons resist every effort to feel better. Psalm 42 gives us language for the weight — honest prayer that doesn't bypass the darkness but holds on to God in the middle of it. Honest to God Lens: Honest prayer doesn't bypass the darkness — it holds on to God inside of it. From our "Honest To God" series • Danny Strange
