What songs evoke lament and joy for you? Gina Bastone looks at the psalmist’s cry like a mixtape to the heavens, which invites us to companion our grief and imagine how God is calling us to participate in building a new world. [Psalm 22]
Reflection
- What is causing your lament, what is causing your praise, and how is God showing up in between?
- What kind of world do you want to build—with our Vox community in Austin, Texas, and in our world more broadly?
- How might we dwell in God’s possibility and open our narrow hands to gather paradise in these difficult times? What phrases might we add to the space after the em dash?
