Good Grief

Aug 14, 2022    Dr. Delman Coates

Grief is an emotion that no one desires to experience, but that everyone inevitably faces. It’s the complex of feelings and emotions that consumes one’s heart when tragedy strikes – from shock to denial to anger to guilt to mourning. But as tough as grief is, as difficult as it is to lose someone you love, there is something redemptive about it. Yes, there is pain, but there is also such a thing as good grief; there is something of a silver lining that can be found in this most difficult of season of life. There is a flip side to it all. We know that God can make good out of all things, and that includes grief. It may not feel like it right now, but there can be good grief. And that’s exactly what we’re going to dive into in this message.
