When pain is not past tense, god is still present.
Grief is a journey no one wants to take, but for Clint D. Watkins, it's a path he's courageously navigating. In this heartfelt episode of 'This Too Shall Last', host K.J. Ramsey sits down with Clint, a campus missionary and grieving father, to talk about the profound pain of losing a child and the often overlooked necessity of lament.
Clint opens up about his personal struggles with showing grief as a man, touching on societal expectations and the internal battles that come with such a devastating loss. K.J. and Clint delve into the importance of creating safe spaces where one can express their pain without judgment. They also discuss how to handle well-meaning but hurtful comments and the importance of setting boundaries to protect one's mental health.
Drawing wisdom from the psalms of lament, they explore how these ancient texts can offer a framework for expressing sorrow and finding solace. This conversation isn't just for those who've faced child loss; it's for anyone grappling with grief, trauma, or deep emotional pain. Clint's honesty and K.J.'s empathetic approach make this episode a must-listen for anyone seeking to understand the transformative power of lament.
