| 0:42.0 | So there's people that cry all the time. |
| 0:44.5 | Yeah, well, I think it's going to be multifaceted. |
| 0:48.9 | The first thing you mourn, if you think about when you became a Christian, when you surrendered your life to Jesus, the first thing you mourn is your own sin. And that doesn't stop even as you continue on in, |
| 1:04.0 | like, I mean, I've had some significant repentance in mourning over sin in the last several months, even in my own life. |

| 2:14.7 | It's always a pep rally, never a funeral. |
| 2:18.3 | But Ecclesiastes says that it is better to go to the house of mourning than it is |
| 2:23.8 | to the house of feasting. |
| 2:24.9 | And that the wise will take that to heart. |
| 2:28.0 | And so there needs to be space for us to mourn, not just our own sin, not just the brokenness in our lives and in the |
| 2:39.0 | lives of those we love who are around us. But there has to be a way for us to look at the world |
