Ep. 5 Conversations with God | What is Lament? with Phil Morrison

In our first episode of 2022, Phil Morrison joins us to talk about his journey with Lament. Phil and his wife, Jan, are Global Partners with Calvary Church, and after serving overseas for several years, they have moved back stateside where Phil now works in the area of child safety. When he started working in this position, the weight of all he was learning in the area of child safety was a lot for Phil to bear. This led him to a process of learning about the biblical practice of lament. Today, Phil is here to share with us what it really means to lament and how this practice can deepen our spiritual lives as we seek to pursue life in Jesus!
