Today, we're joined by Bible teacher and author Kelly Minter to explore a foundational element of our faith: the attributes of God and how they are revealed through His works. As part of our ongoing Essentials of the Faith series, this conversation centers on how knowing God rightly shapes everything else we believe.

One highlight of the conversation includes a powerful discussion on lament as an act of worship. Far from being a contradiction, lament reveals the perfect goodness of God because we can acknowledge the evil of sin because we've seen what true goodness is.
