After Lament: Psalms for Learning to Trust Again
''In his previous book,Hurting with God, Glenn Pemberton has shown us how to read the psalms of lament close to lived reality. Now inAfter Lamenthe guides us through a move beyond lament to hope, praise, and thanksgiving. The perceptiveness of his interpretive skill is made deeply compelling by the fact that every word he writes has been filtered through his own life of loss and renewed buoyancy. Readers will find a faithful, strong companion in Pemberton in the move into and out of lament, all in an act of profound faith.'' --Walter Brueggemann, Columbia Theological Seminary; author ofAn Introduction to the Old Testament''I recommend this well-written and wise book to everyone, particularly those who struggle with life.'' --Tremper Longman III, Robert H.
