Is Grief the Sign of Weak Faith?Is grief a sign of weak faith? If you have ever felt guilty for how hard you are crying, or wondered why a stronger faith does not seem to be making this easier — this episode is for you.
Raymond opens the Grief Series with the story of his daily routine with Wendy — the lunch check-ins, the three porches, the two white rocking chairs, the brothers who showed up every evening. And what happened to all of it when she died.
In this episode:
- Why Jesus wept at the tomb of Lazarus — even knowing the resurrection was minutes away
- What John 11:35 tells us about grief and faith
- Why tears are not a sign of weak faith — they are the cost of loving deeply
- Psalm 34:18 and the promise that God is close to the brokenhearted
Scripture: John 11:35, Psalm 34:18 (NLT)
