Expand your definition of worship.

But many Christians don’t feel right expressing anger, frustration, grief, and sadness in prayer. Our personal worship experience is not complete unless we understand the lost language of lament.

A Sacred Sorrow Experience Guide is also available for personal study and small groups.
