Voices of Lament: Reflections on Brokenness and Hope in a World Longing for Justice

Perhaps nowhere in Scripture do we get as full a picture of the heights and depths of the human experience as in the psalms. These outpourings of emotion never shy away from the darkest moments of life, and yet they also point toward the light--toward the God in whom we place our hope.

Inspired by Psalm 37, Voices of Lament is a powerful collection of reflections from Christian Women of Color on themes of injustice, heartache, and deep suffering. Their prayers, poems, and testimonies lay bare the experiences of the oppressed even as they draw us into deeper intimacy with God and a more fulsome understanding of each other.

Perfect for anyone who longs to better express and understand the beauty of lament held in holy tension with hope and love, this extraordinary collection presents both well-known and new voices of color from various ethnic and people groups and different generations putting God's faithfulness on full and glorious display.
