For many churches, the easiest response to suffering, pain, and crisis is to run away and hide. But this isn't what God calls his people to do. Theologian Soong-Chan Rah looks at a more appropriate response: lament.

In this episode, Dr. Soong-Chan Rah reflects on the North American church’s call to move beyond Western cultural captivity and more fully embody the diversity of the global body of Christ. The conversation explores how worship, theology, and church life can better reflect the cultural richness of our communities, emphasizing the need for genuine diversity, faithful contextual expression, and deeper cultural awareness in a changing church landscape.
