When Soong-Chan Rah planted an urban church in Cambridge, Massachusetts, his first full sermon series was a six-week exposition of the book of Lamentations. Preaching on an obscure, depressing Old Testament book was probably not the most seeker-sensitive way to launch a church. But it shaped their community with a radically countercultural perspective.

The American church avoids lament. But lament is a missing, essential component of Christian faith. Lament recognizes struggles and suffering, that the world is not as it ought to be. Lament challenges the status quo and cries out for justice against existing injustices.

Soong-Chan Rah's prophetic exposition of the book of Lamentations provides a biblical and theological lens for examining the church's relationship with a suffering world. It critiques our success-centered triumphalism and calls us to repent of our hubris. And it opens up new ways to encounter the other. Hear the prophet's lament as the necessary corrective for Christianity's future.

The author’s strong focus on lament — yes, as the title suggests — feels at times excessive, to the point of drifting away from what many modern progressive Christians understand as the broader theology of God being the ultimate source of human joy and meaning, even through seasons of both sorrow and happiness.
Rah’s intense critique of modern Western churches for allegedly avoiding lament does not align with my own firsthand experience. To me, this emphasis seems to echo certain secular trends, where concepts like justice and victimhood are sometimes used as fashionable tools to advance particular agendas under the guise of moral or theological correctness.
While the theme of lament is certainly valuable and often underexplored, the book’s tone left me with the sense that lament was being elevated beyond its rightful place in the larger story of faith, grace, and divine hope.
