The God Who Weeps With Us | 5.17.26 | Pastor Matt Hutchinson

We tackle one of the most difficult realities many people face: depression, grief, and overwhelming sadness. Looking at the story of Lazarus in John 11, we discover that Jesus didn't avoid pain; He stepped into it. Before He performed a miracle, He wept. This message explores the difference between culture's way, church culture's way, and God's way of handling depression. You'll learn how Jesus teaches us to sit in our sadness without getting stuck there, steward our pain toward healing, and ultimately surrender what we cannot carry on our own. Whether you're battling loss, anxiety, unanswered questions, or emotional exhaustion, this message is a reminder that your struggle doesn't scare God, your pain isn't wasted, and your story isn't over.
