The Intentional Parents Podcast

Why Unmet Expectations, Grief, Complaining and Entitlement are Destroying Your Life

Dec 12, 2024
01:00:25

On the show today, Brook and Elizabeth and Phil and Diane talk about complaining. They unpack how complaining often masks deeper issues like grief, unmet expectations, or a lack of acceptance.

True lament invites God into our pain, helping us process grief without getting stuck, while

godliness with contentment reorients our perspective. By repenting of entitlement, embracing

suffering as part of our calling, and teaching others, including our children, to lament with God,

we grow in faith and resilience. Enjoy!
