For a Christian, 'Darkness' is Never the Final Word (Suffering & Psalm 88)

Jack encourages those suffering in this bonus episode of the Chorus in the Chaos podcast by exploring Psalm 88. He highlights how the Book of Psalms captures human emotions and experiences, including suffering and hardship. Psalm 88, in particular, is a dark psalm of individual lament written by Heman, a worship leader in ancient Israel. 

Jack extracts three key takeaways from Psalm 88 about what it teaches us about suffering: turn to scripture, turn to prayer, and turn to Christ. He emphasizes that while darkness may be present in our lives, the final word for Christians is the finished work of Christ and the hope of resurrection.
