In one of the most beloved prayers of the Bible, David gives a striking word picture as a declaration of contentment, “My cup overflows!”. (PS 23:5) Apparently, it is possible to live a life with God so that we are full, not with obligations or possessions, but with peace and joy.
Journey with Peachtree Church as we set aside time in 2024 to seek a life that overflows through living as Jesus by doing what he did. Each month, we will rediscover new spiritual practices like prayer, sabbath, secrecy, and celebration that are biblically rooted in the life of Jesus so we, too, can have lives overflowing with the very living water of God.

How to Pray When You’re Struggling: Lament, Perseverance, and the Presence of God
In this powerful and honest episode of Dwelling in the Psalms, Senior Pastor Richard Kannwischer is joined again by renowned theologian N.T. Wright to explore some of the most vulnerable prayers in the Bible—psalms of struggle, confusion, and lament.
Together, they journey through Psalms 2, 70, 88, 142, and others that give voice to those wrestling with injustice, silence, depression, and the deep ache of feeling forgotten. Whether you’re hiding in a metaphorical cave like David or crying “come quickly, Lord,” this conversation shows how even our rawest cries are sacred.
Drawing from his pastoral work in broken communities, Tom reflects on what it means to pray in solidarity with the suffering—those near and those we may never meet. He shares moving personal stories, insights into the emotional honesty of the Psalms, and the invitation to persist in prayer even when the answers don’t come quickly.
This is an episode for anyone in a season of waiting, grief, or silence—and for those walking alongside others in pain. You are not alone. The Psalms are your prayer book too.
