What do we do when we’re tired of waiting on God? In this episode, we explore Psalm 40 and discover how remembering God’s past faithfulness helps us trust Him in the present—even when the answer hasn’t come yet. Christians can wait with hope because the One we’ve been waiting for has already come.

Waiting is one of the most desperate places faith can live — and David's word for it here is the strongest the Bible has. Psalm 40 turns around to praise a God who has already come through, teaching us to wait for the Lord himself rather than merely the thing we hope He'll bring. Honest to God Lens: Faithful waiting means remembering that God is the One we're waiting for.From our "Honest To God" series • Danny Strange

In this message from Psalm 51, we explore the difference between guilt and shame through David’s honest confession after his sin with Bathsheba and Uriah. Guilt says, “I did something bad,” but shame says, “I am something bad”—and only God can restore us at the root. Through the gospel, we see that God does not meet our shame with rejection, but with mercy, restoration, and renewed purpose.

Shame is one of the most isolating things a person carries. Psalm 51 is Scripture's rawest confession — and it ends not in rejection but in restoration that goes all the way to the root. Honest to God Lens: Shame brought honestly to God finds not rejection — but restoration all the way to the root.From our "Honest To God" series • Austin Payne

When we’ve been hurt by people, it can be hard to know what to do with the fear, anger, and pain we carry. In this message from Psalm 56, Pattie Krohn shows how lament helps us bring our unedited hurt to God, remember His Word, and find real comfort in the God who sees every tear and is truly for us.

God keeps count of your tears. Psalm 56 speaks directly into relational wounds — not minimizing what happened, but pointing toward a refuge who has never failed and never missed what was done to you. Honest to God Lens: God has not missed a single thing done to you — and that is the ground of healing.From our "Honest To God" series • Pattie Krohn

When anger threatens to take over, Psalm 4 teaches us to bring it honestly to God, anchor it in His truth, and find lasting peace in His presence.

Anger is not the opposite of faith — Psalm 4 shows us a psalmist who cries out in distress and chooses to remember what God has done. This week makes room for anger in the presence of God. Honest to God Lens: Anger brought to God honestly becomes the ground where trust is rebuilt.From our "Honest To God" series • Austin Payne

When God feels far away, Psalm 13 gives us language for honest lament—teaching us to tell Him how we feel, ask Him for what we need, trust Him regardless, and worship Him now.

"How long, Lord?" is not a failure of faith — it is faith. This week models lament as a biblical practice and shows how honest protest and deep trust can live in the same breath. Honest to God Lens: Lament is not the absence of trust — it is trust that refuses to go silent.From our "Honest To God" series • Larry Vold
