Pastor Glenn Packiam sits down in dialogue with Rabbi Joe Charnes for regular conversations on the wisdom of the Jewish tradition for the world today.
Why do we struggle with expressing grief and sorrow? Pastor Glenn Packiam dialogues with Rabbi Joe Charnes about the place of grief in the Jewish tradition. Rabbi Joe talked about being present to ourselves in our sorrow, being present before God, and being present to others. Prayer can be a way to lay our hearts bare before God, or it can be a way to hide from God. He describes the Jewish practices of sitting with the bereaved for seven days and covering mirrors, and finding a way forward though it means walking with a limp.
