season 3: Episode 5 | The Cost of Staying Awake: How Long, O Lord?

The Cost of Staying Awake: A Christian Lament in a Time of Moral Exhaustion

The Cost of Staying Awake can feel unbearable. This week isn’t a teaching episode, it’s a lament.

In this raw and personal reflection, Kristen shares how cultural hypocrisy, sacred language used as cover, and the grief of watching injustice normalized have weighed heavily on her heart. Drawing from Psalm 13’s cry “How long, O Lord?” this mini episode holds sorrow and defiant trust together.

This isn’t about outrage. It’s about moral exhaustion, embodied faith, and the courage to pause when the weight is too much.

Hit follow—this isn't church as usual.🔥
