The book, edited by Sean M. McDonough and Scott Harrower, brings together theological and historical perspectives to argue for the reintegration of lament into contemporary church practice. It explores lament in both the Old and New Testaments, its historical role among Evangelicals, and its importance in pastoral care and communal worship. The authors aim to show that lament is a biblically endorsed way for believers to express grief, sorrow, and repentance, thereby fostering a more genuine and compassionate faith community. ER -
